I got tired of carrying my Parkside batteries around one by one.
Sometimes they ended up in my pockets, sometimes mixed in with tools, and whenever I needed to move several batteries, I had to carry them separately. It was annoying, uncomfortable, and honestly just unnecessary.
So I decided to design a simple carrier for up to 6 Parkside 20V batteries.
The carrier has an integrated handle, making it much easier to transport multiple batteries at once while keeping them organized. It supports the 2 Ah, 4 Ah, 8 Ah and 12 Ah batteries.
This started as a small personal project to solve a problem that was bothering me, and I’m quite happy with how it turned out. 🙂

For anyone interested in the project, the model is available here:
Parkside / Xtline Battery Carrier V2 – MakerWorld⁠
The model is free to download and 3D print.
If you end up printing one, I’d love to see how you use it!

I had a few Parkside X20V batteries sitting around and started thinking — why not use one of them as a portable power source?
So I designed and 3D printed this little USB charging hub.
It has 2× USB-A and 2× USB-C, and the SW3518 module allows USB-C PD charging for compatible devices — even laptops.
It supports PD 3.0, PPS, QC4.0+ and QC3.0, so it can handle much more than just charging a phone.
Now one of my Parkside batteries can come in handy not only for power tools, but also when I need USB power in the workshop, car or outdoors. 🔋⚡
Honestly, I wasn’t sure how useful it would be until I tried it. 😄
