i cannt even do that for my own life, 😂

@@deandohertygreaserhow did you learn to fix power tools?

and after he would fix you, he would say: That's her! :D

Thank you very much!

sorry no. i don't actual sell spare parts anyway

Silastic or silicone the contacts, maybe.

I'm sure he will have asked the owner however that Euro 200 gap is going to be more than filled by a warranty on the new tool and the consequent peace of mind knowing you can earn a living without a further breakdown for a while. I have to say that there is probably an opening in the market for replacement units including the controller - big issue is that rewinding is time intensive and any faults elsewhere (as the cables go to a potted controller) are going to need to be factored into the price. I really can't see this giving a decent margin unless you send motors to SE Asia for rewinding. Then you would need to put in capital to fund a buffer stock before your repaired units came back (assuming you have a reliable supplier over there). All in all I can see why a new machine is just the easiest option. It goes without saying (so I will do so !) that the Makita equivalent has separate part numbers for the switch, motor, field etc ! The field for the Makita is much less than a quarter of the cost for the DeWalt assembly ....... Btw these saws are cordless for a reason - if you are based at one location then I can see the benefits of petrol but for use on a site - use existing batteries, no issues with maintaining / starting a petrol saw (or keeping fuel handy in a vehicle) it has big attractions - they wouldn't sell otherwise.

ill have to take an educated guess; some bms will lock themselves as soon as one cell (group) gets severely out of balance or over discharged. you can only revive them when you reprogram the chip on the bms(this has become increasingly popular among manufacturers). since many tools nowadays communicate with the bms, you cant simply use another, non-genuine, bms or no bms at all. i guess dewalt might not even sell the single bms.. so youd have to buy a new battery. thats the free market in a nutshell..

oh and since its "18V"or 54V on those batterys (they automatically switch depending on the tool), the tool does definitely need to communicate with the battery. so this is also very handy for the manufacturer; to make customers absolutely dependent on exactely those DeWalt batteries (you probably cant get alternative bms solutions since youd have to clone not only the communication chip but also the entire communication "language " between tool and battery..

@@riba2233 thats also true.

He said in another video he doesnt fix baterries because its not worth it(for him). Too much work to identify the bad cells, replace them, and the old ones will probably break too down in the road.

I'm no eco warrior but am I understanding that if a cell goes down the rest (potentially good cells) all go as waste? Thanks. @@catsnotcops_

He shows himself blowing it off outside in other videos - as well as coughing a lot - think a mask would help - I would be coughing up chunks a day

Cost - almost impossible to find a rewind place in a western country that will do that cost effectively - you used to be able to do that but unless you have a time machine to go back to the 1960s then you are out of luck (and if you did you would have other things to do than getting a cost effective motor rewind !)
