Is your light out? Are you having power problems? Or did you simply forget your charger head at home? No worries! Charging your phone is now as easy as counting 1, 2, and 3 as all you need is an onion and a Gatorade! Weird right? But it looks like it works. Well, at least it is what a viral video has showed to millions of viewers around the world.
The way it works is frankly, very fascinating. Your device (phone or iPod) uses the combination of the onion and electrolytes from an energy drink to charge itself. Sports drink contain electrolytes (mineral salts e.g., calcium, sodium that is charged electrically) which help charge up your body and renew your energy. Apparently, this can also charge your batteries too. Amazing right?!
Making it work is quite easy to do. All you need is:
- Your phone
- Charging cable
- Sports drink (Gatorade, Powerade, etc.)
- Screwdriver
- Bowl
