Good use for those batteries that will not power your other electronics that you think are DEAD! Talk about getting your money's worth out of batteries!

Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to
beat you to death with it because it is empty.
The faster you finish the fight, the less shot you will get.

Very cool hack.....

Seems to work in my safety-muff radio....
