Ralph, KB8ZOY, forwarded this video on how to obtain AA cells cheaply by buying a 6V lantern battery and then cracking open the case. Has anyone ever tried this? How long do the batteries last?
Hmmmmmm. That’s amusing. I notice that the brands are different. The one that purportedly contains 32 AA batteries is a brand called “Powercell” while the one that contains four big cells is Eveready.
Did you happen to notice that the first one is from GAGFILMS? That should have been a giveaway. There has been a big discussion on these videos on both http://www.lifehacker.com and http://www.geeksaresexy.com, your not the only one hoping that his would be true.
Dan posed a question not a fact so Dan you didn’t get gagged you asked a question that cost people money.
Did anyone notice the batteries weren’t soldered together?
“powercell” is distributed by Walgreens
Internet tip just because you saw a video does not make it real
Just because it is written does not make it real…
has anyone else took apart a “POWERCELL” 6V????
Here’s one that show it doesn’t work…
