(Kind of a reverse question to what most are asking with ebikes and tool batteries):
I have 3x 48v ebike batteries and I just got a couple 40v ryobi lawn tools. The ryobi batteries are quite expensive ~$200 for a 40v 6ah, and I remembered that I have 3x 48v 12AH ebike batteries!
I am trying to find a way to determine how to power the ryobi tools with them. The hurdles that come to mind:
1. Voltage difference (48v within operating range? Or need to step down to 40v?)
2. Amp draw compatibility?
3. Physically adapting the connection
Has anybody done this?
