    Hello all.
    Recently, I have regenerated some screwdriver batteries. Everything was fine until my brother needed a battery for the old Makita - a 7000 type whip. After dismantling, a problem appeared. Well, this battery (ni-cd) has a third "pole", with which I have not met so far. It looks like an additional minus, a bit specific, on the side of the uninsulated housing of the last cell. I believe that the last cell contains an overcharging and short-circuit protection system - which results from the technical data of the battery. My problem is whether by installing a new set of two li-ion batteries (3.2v) and using PCM to derive a minus on the "third" Makita 7000 Screwdriver Battery Regeneration: Ni-Cd to Li-ion Conversion & Overcharge Protection pole"????

    This third pole is the output from the temperature sensor (that rectangular tablet attached to the cell) without it, some chargers won't even start charging the battery.

    This is a common thermistor to control the packet temperature.

    Well, there was a trifle - that is, the thermistor is moved but how do I understand it to connect to the third pole outside the PCM circuit?

    Connect as it was - from what I remember, it should be between the ground and this additional contact.

    I could not quite like it was because I replace Ni-cd li-ion and I have to install protection against discharge and overcharge mentioned "BMS Protection PCB Board PCM"

    Will you be using the original charger or regular power supply?

    Original

    It's just that you have to give a new charger with a balancer and the cells have to be high-current, eg INR18650.
    Why don't you regenerate the package, there are companies that do it and it does not cost expensive, starting from PLN 70.

    I will just install the balancer in the battery system. 70 dych for regeneration on ni-cd with dubious 1500mah. I have a high-current (20A) samsungi for PLN 50. New 2500mah lithium-ion art. They will walk for a few years, not two or three, and it's not good ...

    INR type?
    You get the normal warranty on regeneration. Anyway, how you want - your choice, your screwdriver.
    If you do not give INR18650-25M cells (this M is also important), you will get a little bit and it will fall.

    That's exactly what I have. So how with this thermistor - directly from ground outside the balancer - right?

    Yes, thermistor under ground and third contact.

    Thanks!!! Now it's downhill - some fun with soldering, balancing the tabs and it will be OKI

    How many were originally 6, as I can see. So you give 2 lithium?

    It was 6 x 1.2v and I would give 2 X 3.7

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the regeneration of a Makita 7000 screwdriver battery, specifically addressing the conversion from Ni-Cd to Li-ion technology and the integration of overcharge protection. The user encountered a unique third pole in the Ni-Cd battery, identified as a thermistor for temperature monitoring, which is crucial for the charging process. Participants provided guidance on connecting the thermistor to the new Li-ion battery setup, emphasizing the need for a Battery Management System (BMS) to prevent overcharging and discharging. Recommendations included using high-current INR18650 cells and ensuring compatibility with the original charger. The user expressed intent to install a balancer in the battery system for improved performance.
