hacked RYOBI 6-port supercharger into a Powerstation

[Chris Nafis]

I've developed several powerstations using Ryobi batteries. Viewers have commented that they would love to make one, but don't have access to a 3D printer. Home Depot had a Ryobi sale where if you purchased two 4Ah batteries, you got a free tool. I already had a supercharger, so I got a second one "free" to take apart for this project. The idea was to build a powerstation using "off the shelf" parts.

I have not watched this yet but I have been eyeballing my supercharger to do something very similar if not exactly the same. Can't wait to watch it and hopefully steal some ideas as I have quite a few Ryobi batteries around!

I took an old Ryobi nicad charger and hacked it to accept new Ryobi lithium batteries to power a 12v cigarette lighter port and usb ports. Convenient when out working somewhere and you want to charge your phone or whatever.
