Neat battery trick, but why?

[andyman97]

A member told me in a pm that when the button starts flashing for low battery to take out the battery, give it a few shakes, then reinsert into the provari and you would get more battery life that way. I've used this trick twice and it works.

This morning, I checked battery voltage after it started flashing and the provari registered 3.2 volts. After shaking and reinserting, it registered 3.5 volts.

Anyone know why this happens? At what voltage should the provari stop working from a low battery?

My guess would have to be, like any battery for example, if it's cold it provides less power.
The molecules are not moving much.

By taking the batt. and shaking it, you're getting the juices moving again= more power.

Isn't my level of technical expertise astounding?lol

Cheers andyman97, Hitme
