B&D 18V Battery Connector

B&D 18V Battery Connector

Description

A Printable Connector For Black And Decker 18V Battery Packs. Can Be Used To Easily Tap One Of These Batteries As A Power Source For Electronics Projects. I Designed This Because I Wanted A Way To Use The Battery With A Simple Plug That Left The Battery Unmodified, Allowing It To Still Be Used In B&D Tools And Charged Using The Manufacturer'S Battery Charger. I Use The Plug As A Way To Power Either A Low-Cost Buck Or Boost Converter, Allowing Me To Deliver A Few Amps At Output Voltages In A Range From A Few Volts To More Than 30 V. Examples: [Buck](Https://Www.Amazon.Com/Drok-Converter-Step-Down-Transformer-Stabilizer/Dp/B00Jufj1Ga) And [Boost](Https://Www.Amazon.Com/Efficiency-Converter-Transformer-Controller-Adjustable/Dp/B00Ur5K4Ae) Pictures Provided Show The Other End Of The Wire With Powerpole Connectors Attached To Facilitate Easy Use On A Workbench. Powerpoles Are Not Configured Using The Standard For Ham Gear, But Rather Are Stacked Vertically To Distinguish Them From The Standard Orientation. This Prevents The User From Accidentally Plugging Into Gear That Is Intended Only For 12V/13.8V. The Openscad Script Is Included In Addition To The Stl File.
