- The right kind of batteries are never around when you need them. I'm Mark Erickson, and this is Infinite Solutions: Home Edition. In this episode, I'll show you how to recharge dead batteries using other types of batteries that still carry a charge.
IMPEDANCE RATIO CORRECTION: 2AA = 3 9V

Over the past 15 years this video has saved me $17,537.43 in batteries. THANKS MARK ERICKSON!
No freaking way
I watched this video 10 years ago. I was 11 and totally bought this. I applaud this guy it's so well done. The thing about electrical tape makes it a little too obvious though
Me too bro!
I was really baffled and then the electrical tape thing happened lol
It does work
Holy shit. I bought into this when I was 18 when it first came out. I'm watching old vidoes i've favorited and stumbled on this. I cant believe I didn't notice that sooner.
I feel like I’ve been Rick Rolled
Excellent and informative video. I've also discovered that you can lower the impedance through the application of increased thickness of electrical tape to 1.5mm between the cathode and anode. This serves two purposes: 1. It minimizes recharging time and 2: initiates a reallignment of positive electrons on the cathode.
That guys is better at editing than most of the famous youtubers nowadays lol
NOWadays
Thank you so much! It worked.. With the money I'm saving on batteries now I'm much much closer to buy the house of my dreams.

This is one of the most lucid, succinct and useful things I have watched in a long time. Whoever produced this deserves to live forever. Seriously.
Charging now my AAAA battery for ny surface pro pen, hopefully this works. Or I'll end up ordering.
@arisventura I am trying this out on my A23 battery for my garage door opener! I'm using a AAA battery so it's not the same size....but hopefully it still works. Learning about the lemon juice was a cool thing too.
@noneofyourbusiness47 I totally agree this was such a wonderful video to find. I wish TV was more like this.
These videos have helped me solve everyday problems like, driving without gas and learning languages in 30 minutes.
This legend came on youtube, add 15 videos for us and gone
8 years later, now have saved approximately 4,000 dollars on batteries....

How do you have batteries that you don't fucking need?

Go here if you want the easiest method to recondition your batteries and make money with them: JoxCharge. com
11 years later I have saved 5,500 according to your ratio 4,000 to 8. That is 500 so therefore you add 3 more years witch is 1,500 to 4,000 and BOOM 5,500.
Brah...Its 12 years now
Redditor with 194 IQ here,
This would be great advice if it were the 80's. But it's not, it's 2014, and all you need in 2014 is a computer to browse dank memes on reddit, and they do not use batteries!
Still, I appreciate teaching the masses SCIENCE rather than religious bullshit like most youtube videos do, and it also reminds me of the 80's when society was better with better music. So i still tip my fedora, but i hope you take my advice and make sure the next video is about something important, like bitcoins.

This has to be a stupid troll account he starts all his comments the same on all the videos he comments on.
I don't know what I feel most sad about? That you try so fucking hard to troll that it makes me cringe or that you make fun of a website that you obviously use a lot. Especially the last part really makes me wonder what you try to gain from being so fucking stupid?
StandStrong Dude just don't reply, right now this little kid is sitting at home laughing at the effort you made just call him out, he won't reply because he's to busy being an actual Brony on his real youtube account, just like you said he has to use reddit enough to check these videos out, that's what you do when you don't have any social life
StandStrong It's like you know he's a troll but you continue to feed it. What the fuck is wrong with you?
My grandmother watched this video and 3 days later our house burned down, Thanks Infinite Solutions!
Lol

@@sticklait I can't take a joke because that wasn't even funny
There is another way to recharge batteries, though it takes longer. Take the battery you wish to recharge and tape the positive end (with conductive electrical tape) to the small opening of a funnel. Then set it upright so the large end of the funnel is pointing towards the Sun. Not only will the sunlight affect a recharge, but the heat generated will aid in the process. Thanks for your great channel Mark, and glad to contribute.
Cant i just set it on fire to make it faster? I have a lighter and lighter fluid but im afrfeaid it will explode :/
Ill try it now ig ill update lol

bro give me back my platitatinium account, i migh give u som tips to got out of yolo hell, gg my broter
wow you started uploading videos welp the legend is coming!
yes
EVEN HERE?
I can't differentiate trolls from humans in the comments.
I have spent months studying battery reconditioning and discovered an awesome website at Jons mender guide (check it out on google)
You've literally saved me millions of dollars (of the zimbabwean type) over the years. Thank you!
Was this made in 1994?
No, because the computer in the background is running windows XP, and that wasn't released until 2001. so it was taken after 2001.
I was being sarcastic...

Hooray for humour! Everyone still understands it, thank the lawd.
Hey Billy Jack, I saw your trial once. Never again.
Back when electricians thought that electrical tape conducted electricity lol
This has worked tremendously and has given me fully-charged batteries.
16 years later this video is still helpful. Thanks!

I've been using this method since I was about 10 years old! I've been using the same pack of Duracell batteries for over 15 years now and I've saved so much money!

Taped up batteries last night and now they all work just great, thanks mark! (also placing batteries in the freezer enhances the effects of the acidic compound as a catalyst)
It's funny how many people think they're smart for pointing out how electric tape doesn't conduct electricity.
Wait... you mean it doesn't?
No, it does. Cunning is just trolling. Ignore him.

"It's called electrical tape because it conducts electricity" My all time favorite
15 years later still the best life hack video I’ve ever seen.
it's been 9 years since this guy posted...wish he was here now delivering fresh content.
Don't try this at home... when I tried I got electrocuted from touching the tape and had to have a finger amputated after it turned black from the charring.... now I am reduced to one finger typing... ruined my life.
ow that must have hurt

+EpicEverythingDude75
It's called electrical tape because it is used to seal electrical connections and it is does not conduct electricity making it great for the job.
+Nymeria Meliae
You cannot get a shock from electrical tape, it does not conduct electricity. Secondly, do you realize how many batteries you would have to tape together to actually get a shock? Quite a few.
Im sorry I hurt
Haha I LOVE the people who are falling for this. It just goes to show how genius this video really is!
It actually works
I saved so much money using this Solution that I was able to finally purchase that tiny dinosaur skeleton for my mantle.
Thanks, Infinite Solutions!
Thanks to this video I've almost payed off my mortgage. Because it is easier to find sales on C batteries I buy in bulk and stockpile in order to recharge depleted AA batteries. Since more devices use AA batteries they are naturally more valuable than unwanted C batteries. I'm selling the recharged AA batteries on ebay and reinvesting 50% of the profits into procuring C batteries. Only a couple more months before i'm debt free, thanks so much infinite solutions!
Thanks so much! I was really getting worried that I would never be able to use my TOS Phaser again. You're a life saver!!!!!!
i heard you can recharge batteries by putting them in the microwave, so this is old technology.
I freeze them

As a professional duck wrangler going on 15 years, I can confirm this works.
+Ben Dover
Are you licensed and bonded, 'cause I'm in the market for that.
+Ben Dover do you wrangle ducks or are you a duck? Title is unclear.
This works with lead acid batteries too, a 100ah lead acid battery is equivalent to about 100 AA batteries. A neat trick is to use your car battery to charge a bunch of AA's. I made a jig so it's easier to connect them and I just have a single crocodile clip that goes to the car battery. You want to do at least 10 at a time though. When I tried just one there was too much energy dumping in it at same time and it blew up, there was alkaline acid all over the place.
I still can't believe how great this worked. My drill battery, several AA and AAA batteries, and my camera battery work great again! This is super fun to do too.
So helpful - thanks! My batteries recharged themselves just by me watching this video.
lol he said electrical tape conducts electricity
lol
electrical tape *insulates* electricity
Why do prepubescent kids on youtube feel the need to tell their age to everyone?
TechnoCF no fucking shit
Yeah, we know. we all watched the video. Yeah, that part was funny. as were all the other parts
It’s been 13 years and I’ve been doing this trick. I’ve actually perfected the process so that the batteries have even more charge after the process. I’ve basically figured out how to create unlimited electricity out of two AA batteries. I have a patent now and next year my technology will be used on Tesla vehicles which should make me a billionaire by 2022. Thanks infinite solutions!
for real this trick work pls answer

I can affirm that this worked for me.
Just to clarify some confusion:
Electric tape is different from Electrical tape.
Electric Tape is an Insulator.
Electrical tape is a conductor.
Me sorprende la calidad que tienen estos videos que todavia se ven tan bien para la época en la que estamos, sumado a la excelente narración y credibilidad que da Mark al relatar.
Que pena que este canal este inactivo, era demasiado potencial.
I agree 1000% would have been great to be able to watch new video from this channel.
WOW! Thanks, Mark! This helped a lot. I recharged all of my batteries and no longer have to buy any now!
Hi Mark, LTWFTW, i love all your informative tips. You make my life so much more simple. Just the other day my smoke alarm died, and I'm an agoraphobe who is constantly worried about my house burning down. So i used this videos helpful tips to recharge my 9v battery and restore my peace of mind.
Thanks again, for making the world a better place.
How many takes did it take for you to say "it's called electrical tape because it conducts electricity" with a straight face?
I definitely have to see this in 2019, thank you UA-cam 😂
When he straight faced looked into the camera and said " its called electrical tape cause it conducts electricity " i fucking died
Very helpful video. I go through so many batteries with my TOS phaser.
I recharge my 9 volt batteries by licking them. Your saliva acts as an alkaline.
Can't you guys tell that this is a troll video? You guys are so gullible
Its a troll video, you should've known from the time he said electrical tape can conduct electricity, when it actually can't because its rubber...
MazdaBass971 Every good ESD protection mat consists of an underside of conductive rubber...
I have one on my bench, zero ohms, works like a charm. (Just to correct that rubber statement... of course the purpose of electrical tape is to insulate)
Lol, nice try corporate battery company shill.
Says the guy that can't get the joke
As I wait for my pastor's sermon, I can't help laughing at all these gullible idiots on youtube
OMG IT ACTUALLY WORKED
just saved my entire project
you could always leave them in the hot sun to recharge, that's what I always do
Same for me, it's quick as well.

Huh? Electrical tape does not conduct electricity. The standard black vinyl tape shown in this video at 1:08 is not conductive.
haha ya thats true wtf is he thinking xD
You sir, totally missed the point of this knowledgeable video
Mr Chombee Yes, I know, it was the most obvious hint of a nonsense video, yet his presentation is very good.
Electrical tape is non conductive. This video is bullshit. Total nonsense.
r/whoosh
It's called electrical tape because it insulates, not conducts.
how funny was that? "it's called electrical tape because it conducts electricity" hahaha...hohoho...hehehe...

Still not sure if they knew that and it was for a laugh.
MPAH1981 If somebody understood the conductivity joke, they just graduated from an electrical apprenticeship
its also a joke.

+Grell Sutcliff Kinda reminds me of watching Bill Nye The Science Guy in Science class lol ;-)
Wow. This works amazingly well. Thanks!
15y later and this saved me
I love the videos with millions of views cuz that just means there were people honestly searching this and took it serious
This and Dane Boe were pretty popular back in the day. Big youtube channels were almost exclusively comedy, and light satire, especially TV parodies, were very common. Most people who watched this didn't search for it but saw it recommended, or were sent it
That said, lots believed it
2 AA = 1 C
1 AA = 3 9V
1 C = 3 9V
So you're trying to tell me that 2 AA = 1 AA? This sounds like troll science to me
Hahaha he ended up making a correction in the comments :P
That electrical tape line made it a bit too obvious :)
you underestimate peoples stupidity
Thats when you realized lol?
