Revive a Dead Laptop Battery

Saturday 20 October 2007 @ 10:19 pm

I haven’t tried this myself, but according to the video below, if you have a dead laptop battery, sticking it in the freezer overnight can breathe a new new life into it.

I would love to hear from anyone that has actually tried this to see if it actually works.

disclaimer: What you do or where you stick your battery is up to you. I take no responsibility for any results (good or bad) as a result of you doing the above.

Charge batteries via USB?

Just about every kind of gadget that plugs into your USB port has been invented - well I thought it had until I saw this.

These looks like normal batteries until the head comes off and reveals a USB plug, which you then plug into your computer’s USB port to charge them up.
