Case  546650.   12/30/2024  Dewault 920 cordless screwdriver upgrade to Lithium battery.

We are not fixing audio today.  I upgrade my old friend Dewault 920  . This hard working  guy  was in service with me from 2010 .  Got good reputation and perfect resume .   As you know this tool works for electrical jobs and small projects and use not powerfull NI-MH battery  7,2 Volt.  After 5- 9  month  of work you have to buy new battery. In this case we will transfer  it to lithium 7.4 volt battery . We use two 18650 lithium elements in series. Gentle soldering requaired. Create new charge port and drop new batteries in old plastic shell .   DO NOT USE OLD CHARGER !!!!     It will damage new Lithium battery.

In my case i used simple audio RCA plug as charging port. Charger we will use 8.4 volt  1-2 Amp for lithium batteries only.   8.4 volt only with protection and current control . Will do update how my upgrade process  goes.
