Has anyone built a 20 volt launch controller?
My idea was to use a Dewalt 20V Battery as the power source
There are some adapters on ebay for about $20 that adapt a 20V battery into older style tools, I was thinking of getting one of those to use as the battery holder. I was thinking of epoxying the adapter to my controller box and then soldering wires to the contacts that would normally go into the tool.
I always have a couple of the Dewalt batteries in my truck on a charger.
Big question is how would the pyrogen on the igniters react with the higher voltage, ie would the bridgewire burn into violently enough to cause the pyrogen to break off and cause sporadic ignition problems
