Fleeting Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Greetings, Having bought about 1,100 Mn1604 ( square 9v) batteries to see me through panto, I was wondering if anybody could suggest a use for the little black cap that comes on the positive terminal. It seems a waste to just throw them away. I have threaded them onto elastic to make groovy bracelets for christmas presents, but think there must me a better use for them...

Jen Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 They make good replacement feet for desktop items... your phone for example! Also useful for any prop make that needs little rubber feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Need Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Heard somewhere that a retired technical mangager built a 1:25th scale model of the Blackpool tower out of nothing but the little plastic caps off PP3's!! Maybe we can track him down so he can make a start on 'Tower Bridge'?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd try selling them back to Gillette so they couldn re-use them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
