charger

From the submitter:

"My laptop charger only works if it's bent in a gentle curve. So I bent some Q-tips and taped them on for support. Works like new."

Meatpuppet submitted with comment: Out of state and forgot the camera charger. One cell phone charger, two paper clips, two pieces of a stir straw and we are in business!

User themna was at the airport and forgot their plug-in phone charger. A little bit of wire, an iPhone charge adapter, and a PSP charger....Voila! Phone is charged!

Plug it in, plug it in, plug it in, plug it in, plug it in, plug it in...

Troll science at its finest.

From the submitter:

I was traveling in China for 2 weeks, and had brought a spare camera battery, but no charger. Borrowed a friend's charger, found some wire, and voila.

Charging the bananaphone, perhaps?

Charges your phone's battery to 100 percent in 0.7 seconds!

I can't quite pin down why I didn't.
