Howdy all!!!
Been having a clean-up day and discovered an old electric toothbrush...thought it may be good for parts and then realised that it charges by induction - no wires, no terminals etc.
I've done a bit of a search on the forums but no-one seems to have tried modding one yet.
SO >>>
My "indulgence" from eastmall may be the guinea pig - I've pulled the brush and base apart and surprised to find that the coils may supply enough juice to trickle charge the battery! Of course it will probably take a good 12 hours or more to charge BUT may be a good idea??
Have to insulate the indulgence probably...
What do y'all think???
Oh...BTW - the liquid container is a 20ml aluminium key-ring dropper ( very nice!)
