Cool.  Thanks for the tip.  I go through tons of these things.  I usually buy about 50-100 at a time in big bulk packages.  My kids have a lot of electronic gizmos.

I've got six or seven brand new 6V's in my truck. I am gonna do this. That's great

Hey Gene ; you should get a job with SNOPES

I'm gonna say it isn't so!!!!!    I have been in electronics for years, and know that your standard little 9 volt would take 48 AA, and where would you fit 48 of those into the little battery.  Besides, chemistry has taught us differently.

I'm gonna call BS and ask who has attempted this?    Just because theres a video, dont make it so.

So here is a 9volt hack job

One to many electrocutions may have clouded the math 9v = 1.5 x 6

Dont feel bad I have subsituted a finger for 12 gauge a few to many times also.

But since I started this I had to try it This morning 11/13/2007 my Eveready 9v meet a chisel and safty glasses of course.

While they are close they are about 1/8" shorter than AAA but a small strech of a devices spring or tinfoil ina emergency would do the trick.

I feel like the professor on Gilligans Island HEY SKIPPERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

What about the 6v skipper?

I find that buying rechargable battery's are a good way to solve the battery problem.

BWAAAHHHAAAAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!

That just goes to show you don't believe everything you see on the internet.  

Although, I'd like to get ahold of the nucklehead that made that video.  I guess he thought he was being funny.

Holy Cow!

I had no idea.

I got to try it.

I will not be happy if it is not true and we have battery acid all over my beautiful antique dining room table.

Ah LBH I fell for this too! I took apart a Discount battery and this is what was inside GHEEZZ!!!!!!!
