Lego Mindstroms NXT no battery, power by AC plugin

Lego Mindstroms NXT no battery, power by AC plugin Video Clips. Duration : 4.02 Mins.


This is a method to use Lego Mindstorms NXT with no batteries, just an AC adapter. The adapter needs to change voltage from 110 or 240 to 9 volts. please make sure NINE VOLTS only not more. The ampere is recommended to be one (1) or 0.8 A . You can use less but I do not think that the motors will work well. Lastly, discover the positive and negative by trial and error if you need. If you connect the poles incorrectly, no harm will happen (I tried it myself many times). Just reverse the poles and play !! I hope this video was educational and if you need help, please ask.

Battery Adapter for 18 volt DeWalt power tools

Battery Adapter for 18 volt DeWalt power tools Video Clips. Duration : 1.52 Mins.


This battery adapter enables you to use inexpensive Ryobi batteries for all your 18 volt DeWalt power tools. This was available on ebay, however ebay pulled the listing at the request of DeWalt and their parent company, The Black & Decker Corporation. They claimed the listing violates their intellectual property rights. I disagree with this decision and will appeal through the proper channels, so please check back here for a link to the re-listing when available. After all if you bought a Ford automobile and converted it to run on natural gas, and then offered that automobile for sale, would that be a violation of intellectual property?
