Sometimes batteries are not used for their intended purpose. And as a result, life hacks with batteries appear. What can you make from used batteries at home? We will tell you about this right now!

How to make a stun gun from a battery?

For production you will need:

  1. 9 volt battery.
  2. Conversion transformer. It can be pulled out charger or network adapter.
  3. Ebonite rod 30-40 centimeters long.
  4. Insulating tape
  5. Wire.

Build process

To assemble a battery shocker, attach 2 pieces of wire to the end of the rod. Steel wire 5 cm long. They also need to be connected to a transformer and an energy source.

Next you will need to attach the battery to the two-pin connector of the transformer. At the other end they place a rod and attach a switch. If you press it, then between the steel contacts there will be electric arc. For the human eye to notice this arc, you need to press the button as many as 25 times per second.

In this homemade product, the current strength will be low and therefore it will not be possible to knock out anyone using such a stun gun. Therefore, it can only be used to intimidate as a means of defense.

How to make a bomb from a battery?

To make something popping from non-working energy sources, you will have to remove the entire contents from the zinc cup. Next, pour in gunpowder or something that burns. Well, then attach the wick and set it on fire. This article will not tell you how to make bombs from batteries, since this information can harm not only you, but also others.

How to make a magnet from a battery

To create an electromagnet from a cylindrical current source you will need:

  • Nail.
  • Thin copper wire preferably varnished so that nothing short-circuits.
  • New current source.

Wrap the wire around the nail, coil by coil. The more turns you make, the less the current source will heat up. After this, attach the battery to the two protruding ends. Next, bring your electromagnet to the metal. For example, you can try magnetizing a nut or bolt.

How to make a cache out of a battery?

Sometimes you need to hide something small and a battery cache is quite suitable for these needs.

To make it, just take a crown or type battery. Pull out contents and place the right thing for storage. In the case of a nine-volt power source, you can remove part or even insert small power supplies. As a result, it will produce 9 volts, but at the same time it will be a hiding place!

How to make a battery burner?

It is created using the closure effect.

Tools required for the manufacturing process:

  • Pencil.
  • 9 volt battery.
  • Insulating tape.
  • Connector for power supply.
  • Two syringes.
  • Pliers.

The syringes will require needles, so we take them away right away. We need to remove the plastic part from the needles. We attach the needle to the pencil using electrical tape. After this you need to bend the needle a little. We wind one of the wires coming from the connector to the attached needle.

On the opposite side we attach the second needle. They should touch each other at the very tips. Next, we attach the remaining wire and secure everything with insulating tape. Now we connect the battery and start burning it out.

How to make a fuse from a battery?

The first step is to select the following tools:

  1. Matches.
  2. Copper wire.
  3. Battery.
  4. Nichrome thread.
  5. Electrical tape.
  6. Scissors.

We strip the wires on both sides. Next, we make bridges on the wires using nichrome thread. After this, we take a match and make a small indentation in the middle of its head using scissors. We fix it nichrome thread. Such a fuse can be made without this thread.

For more details, see the video below.

How to make a lighter from a battery?

To create an electric lighter you need to acquire the following equipment:

  1. A 9 volt crown battery. Costs about 100 – 200 rubles. But you can find it cheaper.
  2. Thin wire, but it is better to use nichrome thread.
  3. Wires.
  4. Button.
  5. 2 bolts.
  6. Transparent glue.
  7. Soldering iron.
  8. Tin.
  9. Rosin or soldering acid.

Apply glue to one narrow side of the current source and glue the bolt. It must have nuts on it. We repeat the same thing on the other side. Next, we take the dead old battery crown and remove the plate with poles from it. This is a place for contacts. A similar connector can be purchased at a radio store for little money.

After this, use a soldering iron to connect one wire from the connector to the bolts. Next we wrap the wire around the nail. And we make a spring out of it. We attach it to the bolts using the previously installed nuts.

We attach the second wire to the button and batteries. For more details on how to make a lighter from a battery, see the video below. Perhaps you can use foil in place of the wire. That is, if you make a thin strip and twist it into a spiral.

How to make a dialer from a battery?

In fact, this is the simplest device. To make it you will need:

You will need to make a special rectangular frame. How to do it will be shown in the video below.

Thus, you can easily make a motor from a battery and a magnet with your own hands. As you can see, there is nothing complicated about this! Also, some similar models may use paper clips.

Making fire has become one of the major events in the history of mankind. Today, the problems with making fire have been solved and this process is simplified as much as possible and is accessible to everyone. However, it is possible to make fire in a completely unconventional way. today method, for example using a regular battery.

More details on how to make fire using a battery:

To do this we need a AA battery, scissors, a piece of cotton wool, and foil. It is important that the foil is double-sided, that is, paper on one side. You can find such foil in a pack of cigarettes or chewing gum and so on.


So, the materials are ready, you can start making fire.

The first step is to cut a strip of foil half a centimeter in diameter.


After this, you need to bend it inward. Next, you need to cut the curved foil so that the bent part has a diameter of no more than a millimeter.


The next thing you need to do is put some cotton wool on the foil and connect it to the battery. After a few seconds, the cotton wool will begin to smoke and ignite.


This is the first way to create fire using a battery; there is another method that requires two batteries.


Again, the first thing you need to do is cut off a strip of foil. This time the strip should have a diameter of a centimeter. You also need to bend the foil and cut off a piece as you did the first time. In this case, the middle part this time can have a diameter of two millimeters, since this time we will have to use two batteries.


You also need to take a piece of cotton wool and also wrap it around the middle part of the foil. This is where the difference between both methods begins. This time, one end of the foil needs to be connected to the minus of one battery, and the other end should be connected to the plus. The free parts of the batteries, that is, the plus of the first and minus of the second, must be placed on the remaining piece of foil and wait for the magic to begin. After a few seconds, the cotton wool will ignite, which was required to be proven.

This way you can start a fire in any conditions and anywhere, even if you don’t have a working lighter at hand. This method of making fire is also a great way to show off to your friends. In addition, this knowledge will definitely be useful to amateurs different ways survival in difficult conditions.

Attention!!! Follow safety rules. When doing this experiment at home, use a small amount of cotton wool, otherwise you may get seriously injured and cause a fire in the room.

Being left without a fire on a hike is a serious nuisance. Just imagine that your matches are damp from the cold and humidity, and there is no lighter nearby... By the force of friction make a fire It’s unlikely that it will work out, agree.

In order to be prepared for any life situation, remember this life hack. It turns out that you can very simply make a lighter from two items that are likely to be with you. All you need is a battery and a piece of foil. A wrapper from chewing gum, a chocolate bar, or from a pack of cigarettes will do. Watch the video on how it's done!

Lighter made of battery and foil

Simple enough cut from foil such two figures and place them on the battery at both ends. As you can see, the fire appears instantly! Take precautions. When performing this trick, keep the battery away from your face and flammable objects.

This life hack can be useful for everyone, so don't forget to show it to your friends.

This is a real creative laboratory! A team of true like-minded people, each an expert in their field, united by a common goal: to help people. We create materials that are truly worth sharing, and our beloved readers serve as a source of inexhaustible inspiration for us!

In this publication great idea about how you can make an electric match with your own hands. To do this you will need an 18650 battery, electrical tape, nichrome wire, wire cutters, pliers, regular wire, 2 blades, a utility knife, sandpaper, and a plastic clamp.

If you don’t want to make such a design yourself, then take a look at this store, which is interesting for lovers of all sorts of useful and inexpensive things.

Actions step by step

First you need to take the wire and align it perfectly. A small piece will be enough. Now you need to cut it in the middle. You get two contact wires that need to be attached to the poles of the battery and bent at an angle of 90 degrees. Now we take one wire, apply it to the battery and bend it approximately in the middle. We do the same with the second wiring.

Now we expose these two wires from the insulation on the side that will lie on the battery. We install one wire on the battery and secure it with electrical tape. At the end of the second piece we make a ring using tweezers. We also fix it on the battery using electrical tape. Next, take a nichrome wire with a diameter of 0.4 millimeters and wind it around a thin screwdriver or nail, making 3-4 turns.

Now you need to remove the metal parts from the two terminal blocks. Next, you need to take the battery and leave 0.5 centimeters at the ends of the wire. We screw the terminal blocks onto these contacts.
We take a spiral of nichrome wire and bend the contacts. We insert the spiral into the terminal blocks and screw it on. We install the clamp between them. The electric lighter is ready. Now you can check it

A battery-powered electric lighter can be charged using a standard charger.

The second model of a homemade electric match

In this story from the TOKARKA video magazine, we’ll look at a solid and difficult-to-manufacture model of an electronic match, which will serve perfectly when you run out of gas or gasoline. It runs on one AA battery or rechargeable battery. In this case, a 1.2 volt battery with a capacity of 2400 milliamps is used.
The head part is machined from duralumin. The button is made of brass. The switch contains a contact pad and the output of the filament coil. The other platform will be located outside, it will be secured with a small screw. There is a spring from the remote control inside the case remote control. The battery will be installed on top of it.

Pins from the contact pad are used as racks for filaments motherboard. You can use them instead copper wires sufficient rigidity.

The nichrome thread was used from a faulty hair dryer. It is necessary to select the length of the filament so that it does not burn red hot. It is desirable that the temperature on it be 500-600 degrees, but no more. When it gets red hot, a reaction occurs with the air and it will gradually burn out, so you will have to change it. You can conduct an experiment and find the temperature at which the coil will be very hot, enough to ignite objects, but not red-hot. It can be dark, dark cherry color, but not bright.
