Hello,
I've read lots of info on here regarding the Dewalt 36 volt A123 cells, i'm interesting in using them in their most unmodified state possible, but as you have pointed out there is an internal fuse that limits it's usage to 15 Amps. A few threads discuss "bypassing" this fuse, but don't talk about it, clearly I understand opening it up,a nd connecting to the battery terminals directly, is that all you're refering too? Or are you just putting a wire alongside the fuse? Can we even get to the fuse? Based on the fact that most people say the BMS is dead after the fuse is blown leads me to believe that it can't be replaced.
I do have a DC9360 right here, still gotta get the security Torx bits, but i'm wondering if everyone here thinks the best approach is just to drill a hole in the side, connect some wires directly to the 2 main terminals, or somehow increase the fuse? Perhaps it's possible to put a 50 amp fuse instead of the 15 amp, that might be nice.
Thanks for any advice,
Ross
