party

All of us love those party times but if we are to arrange to one of our own then it’s a troublesome job and every time there is some of the other thing which is left out. To make perfect arrangements for any kind of party, I recommend party planners like Inflatable Party Rentals Sacramento who are professional people are they can arrange everything just as you wanted. Inflatable Party Rentals San Diego and Inflatable Party Rentals Los Angeles are good examples where they have done various types of fun stuff like slides, water works, fireworks etc which children enjoy a lot.

I feel very happy to announce that we have successfully completed one year in blogging. It started with a not so serious intention and main focus was given on developing a web agency site but then I got into blogging and started this blog. I made other blogs too like my personal blog hashim.110mb.com which is freely hosted at 110mb free hosting. Other blogs include Gadget5.com which is purely for my gadgets love. Seeing the success in blogging, I made two new blogs recently. One is on jokes and I got a nice domain for it called jokesboy.com and other on entertainment called cieze.com. Cieze.com looks short and sweet name but it doesn’t have any meaning actually. I selected it mainly because its short, memorable and its an expired domain. Expired means it has got some age and even decent alexa ranking!

Super battery for your remote

April 16th, 2008 by Mohd. Hashim Khan

remote

You know that the remote battery is dead but you press the TV remote button harder thinking that it will work! Pressing the button hard doesn’t work and finally you change the battery. Mostly remote controls use two AA size batteries which give about 3.2V when they are new and this voltage declines with the usage. With decline of this volt, range of your remote also declines and you have to fight with remote to change channel! Now my point in telling all this that being a cheap man I don’t like buying new batteries every now and then so I thought of some cheap and long lasting system. Most of us in our home have cellphone which is out of date, not working or just a piece of junk which is thrown away in corner. Its time to use that phone now! Take that phone and if its charger works then charge the phone battery. If phone doesn’t work then take out the battery and charge it using another phone. Now I know this battery must not be in good shape but we don’t need any powerful battery here too. After charging the battery, see the size of this battery and check if any remote in your house can fit this battery inside its battery compartment. Don’t worry for the +ve and –ve contacts, just see if it can fit, remove some extra plastics from the battery if needed. Once it gets snugly fit inside remote connect the +ve and –ve terminals. In my case as you can see in photo that –ve terminal is already aligned with –ve contact of remote, it’s just a good coincidence but for positive I have to use a short wire. Don’t worry if this thing looks ugly as you are going to put back the battery compartment cover after doing all this so no one would know what’s inside. While doing all this, just make sure that both the terminals of the battery should not touch each other, else you may burn your finger or even explode the battery! After connecting, check the remote and it should work now. If it doesn’t then don’t panic, just check the polarity and contacts. If all done properly, your remote will not need any battery replacement for some years to come! And yes one more advantage is that your remote becomes few grams lighter. Enjoy!

Warning: If you are minor then don’t do this experiment on your own, do it under guidance of your parents.
