How does the speed control trigger work on a cordless electric drill? Is it full of springs and bits of metal that fly everywhere when you take it apart?

    AvE did one about speed controls in cordless tools,
    in his drunken way.

    It's funny because I have a cheap 12v Tacklife drill that has a similar top assembly as this guy. I've been meaning to take it apart and convert it to ryobi 18v, but couldn't figure out how to open it up. It turns out, there are 2 extra screws underneath a thin plastic plate just behind the drill clutch. This thing was not designed to be opened, as the last step from the factory would be to have clipped it into place.

    Anyways, I broke that plate off and accessed the motor, it turns out, this cheap 12v drill has an rs550s motor, which has a range of 12-20 volts, so no voltage conversion necessary! Thanks for the video inspiring me to actually get on this.

    Rather than holding the work piece with a finger, I clamped it together with a small quick clamp with rubber jaws. One jaw sat on the mosfet heatsink and the other on the back of the enclosure. Then I used soldering helping hands to hold the work piece to the bench so I could solder.

    just a question, can you cut those connectors and somehow connect a esc to it to make it remote, just looking at a project to see if it would be suitable to make it remote control, cheers

    Thanks, now I know that probably I am able to repair my Parkside cordless hammer drill. I was afraid that it is glued by epoxy resin or similar thing, but this video give me hope that reality is opposite and I can make an attempt of repair.
