element14 presents | Using Dead Batteries to Test for Dead Batteries @element14presents | Uploaded October 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Got a dead battery? That's a matter of perspective! Instead of recycling coin cell batteries when their time is due, Mat shows you how to put them to good use, as he demonstrates a secret feature of the Raspberry Pi Pico and what sets it apart from other microcontrollers. He'll use dead batteries to check for other dead batteries, so you never have to doubt a battery again. In the end, you'll have a nifty box to keep batteries organized, tested, and ready to use!
