Find it funny though that it's just a bunch of smaller batteries inside of it.
Speaking of batteries.. RadioShack has a 4 pack AA Digital Plus High Power Alkaline Batteries for $0.99. Select free site-to-store shipping, otherwise it's $2. For the ship-to-store option, scroll down the page to "Other ways to get it" and click on "Available at most stores, find it near you". http://www.radioshack.com/product/i...751&siteID=lw9MynSeamY-A72f6u5EUTHArkoOyz6H0A Yeah.. pretty good deal.
True, most of my gadgets have their own rechargeable battery, but I still have things that use those little button batteries.
I can't see this at work because it's blocked, but if it is the same video of them prying open a lantern 6 volt battery and getting 32 AA batteries out of it, it is a hoax. Check Snopes.com. There actually is something like 4 separate batteries inside those things, but it is nothing like how they show and probably not any easy way to utilize for other power. Also, if you see any video claiming you can power a light or motor by putting a nail in two candles, running wires from each of those nails to your light/motor and lighting the wicks of the candles...don't buy that **** either. Also a hoax, but a much easier to spot one. http://www.snopes.com/photos/humor/batteryhack.asp Edit: Again reiterating that I can't see this video, so what I'm posting here might not even apply.
Nope, I've seen that one. That is a hoax. Main thing that gives that away is that the volts don't add up. This one is a 12v batter by energizer. It's filled with like 1.3vbutton batteries or something like that. can't remember, watched it a few hours ago. One of these Gives you this
Yeah a 6 volt is 4 F cell batteries. This is a 12V battery. To get 12 volts you need 8 alkaline batteries. The battery he compared it to is not fair because it is a silver-oxide which is really expensive because it uses SILVER! Plus hardly any small devices use a 1.5V coin cell battery like those in the A23, they mostly use lithium cells. Plus those coin cells are tiny. I doubt someone would use all 8 of them before they become dead from old age. Alkalines do not last very long.
hmm interesting. Thanks, pretty much why I posted it. I was curious on why it would be set up like this.
Same deal with the 9 volt. It uses AAAA's but no one cares because the uses of the AAAA are so limited. These designs are really old. Alkaline is bad for small cells compared to lithium.
The first battery hack was ha ha got you funny. The multiple battery hack videos spun off are r****ded and dumb. If you can't afford batteries, you have a problem. No offense to the people who will try the hacks. Best of luck.

I've only hacked my VCR, but I think I'll try batteries next! <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/MGx-3t8CJ-k&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/MGx-3t8CJ-k&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>
