So I don't own a booster pack, the led acid ones are too big and the li-ion ones are too expensive... But I do own a bunch of milwaukee M18 drill batteries. My first thought was, "Milwaukie has got to make one of these, they make everything else." But no, they don't, Dewalt does but that doesn't help me, so I figured voltage is voltage and 20v ought to get er done.

What I do have is some alligator clips off a dead ctek charger and an old pc power cord.

Bend the prongs up to fit the battery, attach positive to the red clip and negative to be black. Hook it to the battery for 30 seconds with a fresh drill battery and she fires right up.

There must have been a time
