Homemade Electric Ice Auger Drilling 8 Holes In a Row Jan.21-2012.
This is the second video showing my homemade electric ice auger working on ice in Acton, Ontario. Drilled 17 holes today at -4 degrees, and the battery still had charge left. I used 24V battery to drive a 12V DC motor, there was no sign of over heat on motor. As long as the auger is not stuck in the ice for extra long time, it should be ok to do so. I think. Enjoy. Don’t forget to subscribe. PS At the end of the video it shows the voltage/speed control through a cordless drill trigger. Direction reversible.
looks very? powerful….awesome job.
