batteries

Get Over Here and Play a Video Game

So one of my friends gave me an iPod touch that needed a new battery. But I didn't want to pay about $15.00 for a new one, considering that I could screw the thing up trying to solder it in. So I got the crazy idea to modify and use the working battery from my old cellphone. But it didn't fit inside the case because it was too thick. So I successfully connected it to the old battery's controller circuit and hooked up the "new" battery. I had to glue it to the outside of the case. Now, everybody wonders what that big black thing is on the back of the ipod. But hey, it works and charges just fine!

In case those controllers you just got need a little fix.

You're charging together? Already?! ~Not-So-Handy Andy

It's not how big the voltage, it's the flurrent of the current. If you know what I'm sayin'.

Submitter ariled says their kitchen scale's button cell ran out of power and they didn't have another one. Luckily they had two AA batteries, some wire, and duct tape.

It falls a bit short in the "stealth" department, but you can't have your cake and eat it too, so shut up.

And I get the feeling that it's not supposed to hold AA batteries... but then again I'm not a photgraphometer.

These new electric screwdrivers are now as convenient as I was hoping for.
