Can a 12V Light Bulb run on a Ryobi 18V Battery?
I test out a Feit Electric 12V RV/Marine LED Light Bulb to see if I can run it straight off a Ryobi 18V battery
Please click SHOW MORE!
This is a mass-market 12V light bulb by Feit Electric, available at major retailers such as The Home Depot: www.homedepot.com/p/Feit-Electric-60-Watt-Equivalent-A19-12-Volt-RV-Marine-Non-Dimmable-E26-LED-Light-Bulb-Bright-White-3000K-OM60-930CA-LED-12-BX/325372774
It's listed as "12V", but doesn't tell the RANGE of voltages it can run at. So, I tested it. Sure enough, it looks like it works fine anywhere 10-30VDC.
With a simple adapter like this one: 300mpg.org/ryobi-18v-light-bulb-adapter/
the bulb works directly from the 18V Ryobi battery.
The only down-side to this bulb is it's a little on the expensive side. I've found that the LeMeng brand bulbs work GREAT with Ryobi batteries, and they are about 3 times less expensive.

    I haven't tried, but I suspect you can run 120v led bulbs from any voltage under 120v. ac or dc. I think the 120v bulbs are actually lower voltage bulbs with a step down transformer inside. I have used 120-240vac phone adapters in my EV's to get 5v power for a bms system, running the adapter directly from battery voltage. They ran just fine directly on 96vdc battery packs and 120vdc battery packs, even under heavy load with total battery voltage down below 80v.

    • @BenjaminNelsonX
      @BenjaminNelsonX 4 дні тому

      No. That's not quite how LED bulbs work. Bulbs designed for 120V AC typically do have rectification and step-down circuitry inside them, but that doesn't mean they can run from any voltage. They are designed for that 120VAC input. You can't just put a 120V LED bulb on an 18V battery and have it work. Keep in mind that light bulbs are going to be designed to be as simple as COST EFFECTIVE as possible. A traditional 120V incandescent bulb CAN run on 18V, but it will only produce a dull glow.

      A 4Ah battery ran the bulb for more than 8 hrs continuously. No difference in the amount of heat at the base of the bulb whether on 12v or 18v. Maybe I’ll hook the bulb up to the power supply and just keep it running continuously at 18 or 20v.

      LED lamps have a constant current circuit (within a range) so this works. Do not try this with incandescent bulbs. Maybe 5% over voltage can reduce the life to 50%

The faster a student would pedal, the higher voltage it would go. Of course, some kid would have to pedal REALLY fast and blow out the bulb. I think that was at about 18V on those.

    Does the 40V battery give out under acceleration due to some sort of current protection? I think I'm seeing this on my build.

    • @BenjaminNelsonX
      @BenjaminNelsonX 9 днів тому

      Yes, that's exactly it. The Ryobi 40V batteries have an internal overcurrent protection built in. I've found that with my 36V/500watt hub motor bike that if I accelerate HARD the battery safety will kick in and kill power. Unmounting and remounting the battery resets it, but it's a nuisance to do. As long as I pedal to get started and avoid any intentional hard accelerations it works fine. Adding a second battery in parallel with the first means only HALF as much current is drawn from each battery. That will prevent the overcurrent protection from activating. Just make sure that when using two batteries, that they are both the same faceplate capacity and start with them both fully charged.
