When I was 11, I ran out of batteries and mum told me she wasn't buying any more for a damn game…so I N*gga rigged some’n some’n by connecting the wires from a converter to some **** @ss batteries and plugged that S**t into the outlet. The batteries charged, but I blew out the outlet. I fixed it b4 mums found out. :wink: And she never had to buy me any more bateries.
Shiit throw them biitches in tha freezer for a couple days and they'll recharge a lil for ya :wink:
Does doing that really work (putting batteries in the freezer)?
