Helps the tool or charger recognize the specific battery pack, which can prevent "unknown" or incompatible packs from being charged. C (Control): Properly charge the battery outside the tool

When testing a fully charged battery with a multimeter, you can expect the following approximate readings: Positive to Negative: ~18V to 20V. Negative to C: ~20V (Control signal).

  • Properly charge the battery outside the tool.
  • Diagnose a “dead” battery that the charger rejects.
  • Build an adapter to power LEDs, fans, or other electronics.
  • Jump-start a deeply discharged pack.

5. B- (Battery Negative)

  • Main power ground.
  • Also serves as reference for thermistor and data lines.
