How to recharge your batteries in a SHTF scenario or ELE (Extinction Level Event)

This simple technique will allow you to recharge your batteries from other batteries. This could be very useful to anyone relying on electronic devices during a long black out. This trick is not well known, reason is Duracell has spent literally millions trying to keep it from the general populace. The first time I learned about it I was stricken by its ingenuity. Been using it ever since! This needs to be shared.


Important: there is a mistake in the video and the correct impedance ration is as follows:
IMPEDANCE RATIO: 2AA = 3 9V

Battery companies are angry!

"Its called electrical tape because it conducts electricity"

hhmmmmm. hhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm



And by "serious" i meant something not T&C compliant

Not sure if you're serious?? Everyone knows that electric tape is made of one conductive layer (sticky) and one non conductive layer on top for, you know, protection.

e·lec·tric - iˈlektrik / (adj)
1. Derived from, produced by, or involving electricity: an electric shock. 2. producing, transmitting, conducting, or operated by electric currents: an electric bell.

Electrical tape (or insulating tape) is a type of pressure-sensitive tape used to insulate electrical wires and other material that conduct electricity. It can be made of many plastics, but vinyl is most popular, as it stretches well and gives an effective and long lasting insulation. Electrical tape for class H insulation is made of fiberglass cloth.

let me assure you the adhesive is not conductive at all

Let me assure you, sir, that you're incorrect. You're speaking to an engineer.

Did you even listen to the video? I mean it does work, even me I learn new things everyday and I'm not scared to say it.

and thats why you dont get titles from the interwebs .

so yeah its sad you keep your act, here is another nice piece of knowledge

Yea it's electric tape because it doesn't conduct electricity lol.... What a joke.... But also dangerous. More housefires are caused by nine volt batteries than any other. Don't mess with nine volts and always always tape up the ends of them...

Be safe....

Engineer of what lol. Have you not ever read the package of electrical tape. It says it is a non conductive material designed to isolate and shield bare electric wiring. It won't conduct electricity. Unless you live in some strange backwards world. Lol...

Take your meter and test it yourself, you will see it doesn't conduct electricity. Lol...

So...does this recharging method work, or doesn't it?

The joke is placing this thread in jokes forum.

Guys its april fools, I thought I left enough hints to make it kind of obvious lol

It's a joke, and of course electrical tape is not conductive...
