You need:A cordless screwdriver. A greenhouse attached. ;Pipe 1 1 / 2 inches. ;2 lid.;A metal rod. A bipolar switch. ;9-volt batteries. ;And some other small widgets. This work very well, and once work is completed, I returned my batteries inside.

Sweet,   I love the worm gear/ c-clamp and gear reduced screwdriver motor

Questions:

What did you cut your chute mount clamps from?

Do you have the running on 9 volt or 27 volt.?

How did you attach the screwdriver motor to the inside of the pipe?

Great job,  I think you have a lot of people  working in their garage now..

I saw that HomeDepot and Lowes has rechargable,sealed lead acid, 12 and 6 volt batterys with spade clip ends.   These batteries are for emergency exit lights and signs...  Maybe some future project could use those...

Bravo Bolack, you beat me to it. I was also considering a lead screw type mechanism like yours. Great work. Vive les patenteux!

Cheers

Why not use the rechargeable battery that came with the tool ?  I don't think those 9v batteries are going
to last very long with such a high current draw.   9v batteries are usually used in things like smoke
detectors which have just about no current draw.

I was thinking of that too, but if Bolack can build  this electric deflector, why not go forwrd and add to blower a small alternator???

Bolack, is this your next step to your project??? I think it's a wiper motor....

Yep Denis next step with same screwdriver for rotation chute;My mount clamp was made with plastic 1/2 inch;To hold everything in the tube, i used little stud glued with black silicone on plexiglass fixed with small screws in the back. I sanded the screwdrivwer casing and the inside of the tude to slide it in and stick it with epoxy. The electric motor is 6 volts but with 9 volts it turns. After the job is done outside I disconnct the power back and bring it inside.

Thx vais faire pareil pour la rotation de la chute et cela va etre moin compliquer..

I guess you could use 3/8 ALL-THREAD (10mm, for you up north) for the drive worm and a standard nut...

Hello Friiy.
My first test was with this kind of screw.
But my deflector was not fast enough.

Great job, But I think it is a little slow. I think it would go better using a cable and lever.
