Lets Fix a DustBuster – It Needs to Suck Again

Lets Fix a DustBuster – It Needs to Suck Again

In this video we are going to fix a DustBuster. The ancient battery pack needs replacement.

This is a Honey-Do mission from my Partner. We have an old DustBuster vintage mid 90’s I think that the batteries are bad in.

I start out not knowing what batteries are in there, but determined to install some 18650s to replace them whatever they are.

I find when I get inside a 12s NiCad string that has got to go before they start leaking and doom the entire machine.

I cut out most of the boring arts I had to be there for, but show you the building of the battery pack from scratch and full repair of the unit.

I retired from a large mid-western medical equipment manufacturer on December 31 (2019) and decided to try to let everyone in on my life and my transition into retirement. I have a varied set of interests. I live in a 90 year old cape cod in the middle of a small city of 70,000 people. I have a small lot across the street from the city seat of government, but despite that I have a 1952 Allis Chalmers farm tractor that I drive around the city from time to time. My wife has a business that has me fixing and creating cool home decor out of broken windows and drywall screws. I have been known to buy things on 'for sale' lists, fix it up, clean it up, generally add value and sell it off. Oh, yes, I'm getting chickens! But first I have to build the chicken coop and run. It will be like no other you have ever seen. Also will give me something to do. I am into home automation, have a Home Assistant enabled home and so will the chickens! I'll have to give them a password...
