battery preservation

[mariecstasy]

ok, since you guys got me wondering about my batteries in the refrigerator....i took them out last night.
did a ask jeeves search today and this is what i found........
<LI>BATTERIES:
Since heat drains out the battery power, they'll last longer in a refrigerator than they would in a drawer. (Don't take new batteries out of the package; in fact, double proof against moisture by putting them in a plastic bag as well.) Thaw the batteries for 2 hours before using.
so i will be putting them back. and now we know. and knowing is half the battle

[dhs]

My brother kept his batteries in the fridge too. You know, down here in Florida car batteries don't last very long because of the heat.

I used to love licking batteries when I was a kid...

[mariecstasy]

you ever test a 9 volt by puttting it on your tongue?

whew.......its one of those freaky thrills

[HoneySuckleBlue]

heehheh:D hurt meh!!

Have you ever used one of those prank pens that send an electric current when you click it??

Being shocked is a freaky thrill...

[mariecstasy]

yes i have.

have you ever hit your mate w/ a tazor gun in his sleep?

[HoneySuckleBlue]

BAAAAHHAAAAA!!! No I have'nt!! You rock!!!

(but I did hit one in the head with a teflon coated skillet)

[mariecstasy]

well i didnt rock when it woke him up and i got bitched out. but we always did stuff like that to each other. one night i got sooooooooooo drunk that i pucked all over the bed, he got pissed so but the blankets in my car. well it was summer and hot, hot, hot.
my sis and i worked together, i had the car. that next day i was in no shape for work, so she got a friend to bring her down to get my car. well imagine my surprise when i woke up naked, under the cabinet in the bathroom to my sister throwing vomitty blankets at me and screaming at how discusting i am.
lol..........good times

back in the days when cars had points and compasitors in the ignition system, i used to take the old compasitors (looked like a little cylinder not much bigger than a firecracker with a wire attached. they stored up the electric charge so your spark plug gets a good juice.) i would stick a screwdriver in the end of a spark plug wire, start the car, and then hold the compasitor by the insulated wire and touch the end of the wire to the screwdriver shaft and the compasitor body to the block for about 30 sec. this charged the compasitor with a hellofa wallop! then i would find my victim and say "here catch" and toss it to them...crack! you can here it discharge hehe ok i'm giggleling it was always funny...hurt too.


as far as the original post...i stand my ground *folds arms*

[mariecstasy]

well its a good thing we dont live together. i would put the car battery in the freezer just to drive you batty

[HoneySuckleBlue]

*gets evil grin*

hehe my brother laughs so funny when he gets shocked....one of these days I may have to go shoppin for a capacitor!!

[7river]

YES!!!


and marie...do i have to do a google battery search on your ass?

don't make me do it...i feel lucky:)

[mariecstasy]

i challenge you buddy!
my name is inigo montoya............you killed my father.......prepare to die!

[Moominpappa]

Well maybe your thinking I've had a full discharge, and you know, I don't really know myself. Could have been 220 volt, could have been 240.So how lucky do you feel, punk. Go on, make my day.

(Be careful Marie, he's already bested the Sicilian and beaten the giant, and been brought back to life by the Mighty Max - even with your father's sword, you may be no match for this dreaded pirate)

Meanwhile, a little disquieting thought begins to grow at the back of my mind - why does Marie need so many batteries, and why do they have to last so long. And I must ask myself - do I really want to know the answer?

And I haven't even mentioned the time I held two mains cables together by sheer brute strength so that the band I roadied for could finish the gig, and ended up with Van de Graf Generator hair.:eek:
