Black and Decker 18V to Ryobi One 18V conversion

thingiverse

I converted Black and Decker leaf blower, model GWC1800L-XE to Ryobi One battery. Black and Decker has its BMS in the tool itself, when Ryobi has it in the battery. Thus I removed the PCB from the blower and connected the motor directly to the battery through the switch. I made battery contacts from some scrap copper I had laying around, but probably proper contacts would work better. I used a rotary tool to remove some plastic to fit the adaptor. No adhesives, just 4 screws to hold the adaptor in place.
