What Happened To Duracell PowerCheck?
(hackaday.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Did the power check work or was it snakeoil I remember trying to see it while hurting my hand.
It did, see Technology Connections' latest video on it, he explains fully how it worked. Quite clever tbh.
Although, he admits in the video to "faking" his footage of it working, by using a off-camera heat source. (His batteries were quite dead.)
But, as someone that lived through this time, they did work, as long as you pressed hard enough in the right places. It was hard to tell if the battery was dead or if you weren't pressing hard enough
Yeah I used them. It was somewhat handy.
