Have just purchased a Worx Hydroshot WG629E.6

I understand that with the right connector I can run it from a Makita 18v battery

Does anyone have any recommendations. Is this possible and where to buy convertor from if so ?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Not sure. I do know it's the same as erbauer, titan and other kingfisher brand stuff.

I just bought a 4.0ah one off amazon for £34. Never runs out now. Had to as mine died after 4 charges. 🤔

I did see someone on YouTube try a Dewalt converter (Scottish chap from memory) but it didn't work.

I use a worx with a makita battery adaptor. Just got one from eBay. Obviously it’s knock off cheap Chinese stuff but having a lot of makita batteries in my van makes more sense than one small
Worx battery. Will try find a link

It's £36 now. Shame. £2 more!

Been reliable so far. And will clean two cars and a bike without running out unlike the original.
