    Another guy tried it using the same exact battery as the one in the original and it worked, he got AAA AA and some C batteries. IDK.

    That is pretty funny that he cracks it open to find tons of different brands. Sounds fishy to me!

    Um... I'm not buying it. If there were batteries inside the battery, there would have to be something that connected them together in order to get the voltages right. they wouldn't just dump out like in the vids, and most likely would be more like the one that calls the first one a hoax. Paper wrapped batteries that are of no use for any other application, really.

    I definetly don't buy it. But I think I will give it a try. I think I have one of them laying around out in the garage somewhere.

    I think it needs to be that specific brand in the first video.


    The video Aaron talks about with the different kinds of batteries is a hoax I believe. I think I heard someone say in one of those videos, that particular kind of 6v can be found at walgreens?

    Anyone who believes this video is true should have their Internet privileges taken away from them.

    The title "GAGFILMS.COM" should've given it away before the video even started. :bash:
