Say you are traveling, your iPod’s battery run out and you forgot to bring the charger nor cable. It’s not really a problem if you happens to have an onion, electrolytes solutions, an orange or even a durian. I know, what’s the odds that you’ll be carrying these things around, but still it’s good to know some crazy alternative ways you can charge your iPods. It’s weird, but it works. Videos after jump.

Durian? U joking right?
Replyhongkiat May 8th, 2008
@Khairil Lol, I think that’s an ad. But the title’s catchy so I thought I might as well add it as part of the article.

Haha. Charging with acidic element then I believe it will do. Durian? Impossible gua…

It’s al fake, right? I find it hard to believe you can really charge your iPod with an orange or something…
ReplyAnd I don’t want to mess up my charger, so I’m not gonna try it. :P

@Ramy I think the first 3 still sounds possible, the 4th looks weird, 5th is definitely an ad.
ReplyRamy May 9th, 2008
Hmm, maybe I’ll give it a try with my old iPod charger, but I’m scared to mess my iPhone (don’t have my old iPod anymore).
ReplyIf someone else has tried it… leave your comment please.

This is great. I wonder if the orange would work for my cell phone. Think how many times one gets stuck without a charger, away from home and needing a charge!

I tried the potato chip method and it works! Absolutely incredible!
