you could simply link it but most of the video sites have an 'embed' section of code/text somewhere on the page. To use that you need to set the POST OPTIONS to HTML On - Auto Linebreak mode then paste in the embed text into it and you get something like this:

 

<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="

name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="

type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

Cliff sent me a link that may sway someone from applying what the video implies. I may have to pull this video, certainly don't want to get someone hurt.

Another tell tale that it's not real is that 32 batteries times 1.5 volts is 48 volts....and it was taken from a 6 volt battery.

That was one of the first things I thought too. But man, its on the Interweb, it must be true.

It is the matter how they are connected. In this case, it can be anything between 1.5V - 48V

You are right keram...4 sets of 8 - 1.5 volt batteries hooked up in parallel would give you 6V...forgot about my basic physics...hehe

Well, I've just "opened" (with hammer not screwdriver) one of my batteries prepared for recycling and what is inside??

Just 4 "type C" diameter size batteries just double lenght, connected in series
