Power To The People…Hacking Batteries to Save Money

by Jessica Hickok on October 20, 2007

BatteriesI’m all about incredible ideas and life hacks that can save money. I run into them all of the time and always think that I like the idea, but never end up actually using it (or remembering it). But this one I will. I stumbled across this site that gave an awesome battery hack. Here’s the deal, purchase a 2-pack of Energizer 12v (A23) batteries as pictured. It will cost you approximately $2. Then you open up the batteries and tucked inside are eight 1.5v button cell batteries! Those things retail for around $4 a piece!! So spend $2 to get around $40 worth of batteries. Amazing!

 

Please watch the video, I think that you too will be shocked and will absolutely love the whole idea. Power to the people! (Literally).

Awesome trick. My camera goes though those button batteries like candy. I’m going to give this a shot.
