A while back I was looking into using a Dewalt battery on my starter since that’s what all my tools were. I had an adapter from a finer edge mfg which is nice but then I need a Makita battery and charger set up. Well after talking ti a local club member I noticed him using a Dewalt adapter and battery. It turns out that there’s an adapter made and sold online. If you google Dewalt power wheels adapter, you’ll come up with them on Amazon NR a couple other sites. Last night I had a chance to mount it and wire one up. It turns over my OPS 80 with ease. Just thought I’d share another option for those not wanting to run a Makita.

That's how you do it brother
My setup is from finer edge and I got an adapter from makita to Dewalt.
Your setup looks great, I use 20v batteries and never had an issue but I never let the starter spin unless it had a load on it
 
Be carefull of stalling the starter. I cooked a couple of batteries with very short duration stalls when I forgot to blow engines out.

Wiring in a auto reset 50 amp circuit breaker may save the batteries from overload damage. Not sure if it would nuisance trip as I recon it would be a experiment. Could save pack but allow mostly normal use on maybe up to .45 to .67 engines.

Anything bigger I think the Dynatron is going to damage the packs as the amp draw with .90/gas engine starting load is going to be too high.

Those packs are never loaded like that in use in the tools they were designed for.
