The batteries in my remotes last so long, I forget they even exist. Looks like a solution without a problem.

You might not need batteries but you definitely gonna need a new remote control 😂😂😂

Don't spoil your remote. Simple batteries are well and runs for months to year..

I don't know how safe this would be! One thing I will say is TRY CLEANING YOUR SOLDERING IRON OCCASIONALLY!! The tip should be bright and shiny and you should 'tin' the tip, that is, apply some solder to the tip, before soldering the joints, to ensure good heat transfer. Then the solder will flow much better and not 'ball' up.

Interesting concept and a good DIY but i think its easier just popping in 2 rechargeable battery.

I really appreciated the clear, concise, unaccented narration which explained every step so thoroughly.

This is a beautiful idea I will never try, imagine destroying a whole power bank and buy another 3.5v battery just to work a remote, my question is, how much is the battery itself that I'll have to go through all those stress? 😂

@ 4:27, it also uses a Battery 3.7V. You just changed the type of Battery. It still needs a Battery to work.

Just buy a pack of rechargeable AAA batteries. Because my home phone takes AAA batteries so I just keep changing out the batteries when they go dead. So all I have to do when they go dead is change out the batteries in my home phone and charge them back up

Just use rechargeable aaa👍😎 less work especially when you have many remotes!

I will never get the time back wasted watching this

THIS PROJECT DO NOT DESERVE THIS WORK AND TIME BECAUSE THE PRICE OF BATTERIES ARE CHEAP AND THE LIFE OF BATTERIES ARE LONG . GOOD LUCK

The only problem is, now when I use my remote control, I get planes trying to land in my back garden!

"Energizer Lithium" best desition for remotes. Live long and not leak.

Don't stop there. Do one with calculator solar panels. . . or even a tiny gasoline engine.

I ain't ruining my remote controls, following this instruction.

But, like all mini-liths, it will need to be changed occasionally, which will not be convenient, especially if your soldiering iron is as crappy as the one the guy in this video is using.

Say goodbye to batteries by using.....A BATTERY. LOL.

That was a waste of 8 minutes in my life that I won't get back. I'll stick with replacing the batteries, I think I've changed mine once in the last 2 and a half years or longer even. But on a more positive note, this is a good way for someone who wants to learn about fixing electronics to try, It will help to develop their soldering and analysing skills. So for that well done.

Easy changeable AA or AAA batteries is still better than internal chargeable battery. The chargeable battery is a pain if you need to change it.

Maybe nobody told you.. but there are rechargeable AA and AAA batteries in every store. Also good non rechargeable batteries lasts for more than 5 years. It actually costs less to replace batteries for the entire lifetime of the remote... than making this "hack".

Cannot believe i actually sat here and watched this madness.🤔🤨 Rechargable batteries are easier.😉

so you will destroy one decent powerbank just to convert one standard remote control to a rechargeable one? isn't it cheaper to buy batteries?

The idea is sound, but, you need to learn some Basic Electronics Skills. The Pliers you use are more suited to working on Mains Power gear. Heat the joint, THEN apply the Solder. A Big Blob of Solder is useless. You will end up with Dry Joints. You get the Idea. The Correct Tools are essential. A better idea would be to make room for a set of USB RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES. You can purchase a Set of Three AAA Batteries with a USB Port Wired in for a low price. Wire it so the USB Port is attached to the Outside of the Control. A simple matter to Recharge when required Best of luck. I like to see people trying new methods

Me encanta gracias ❤

I don't know if your incredibly cheap, smart or intervative, but you got us all tuned in... Keep up the good work, because if you can do it there is no reason this can't be the future or remote control technology... Personally I purchased rechargeable batteries for all my remotes & solved this...#GreatVid...🎥🎬🎥

Good job! you broke the remote control. It looks awful! I would rather replace batteries.

what is the purpose of using a power bank? the purpose of a power bank is for device that running out power quickly you added another dependency complexity to a simple working device, and you didn't have a backups device for a replacement, if something went wrong when working on it. I would not take the risk, if I were you

To check the transmitter work in front of remote, face your cell camera to remote and press button, you will see a white light beaming from remote

In the head lines, it is mentioned as if no battery is required for the remote.But a battery is how ever, used.Moreover, a lot of time waste to do this work.When a lot of batteries are available, where is the necessity for this!?

As suggested, why not replace with rechargeable batteries? You still have to recharge that 3volt battery. However, if you're trying to recharge your batteries without the house current, you can get those rechargeable yard lights that use solar power to recharge the batteries.

who went straight to the comments before watching?

Old is gold batteries can be more safe I assume stay blessed

really a genius !! don't you know there are rechargeable AA or AAA batteries in the supermarket ?? even though the voltage is a little bit lower than non rechargeable batteries, the remote can still function without any problem, why need to do something like that ?

It would be easier to buy 4 rechargeable batteries and swap them. That 3.7 v rechargeable will not hold a charger as long as 2 of its larger sized 1.5v cousins.

Why did'nt you replace the regular2 AA batteries with 2 rechargeable 2 AA batteries ?

nice ..thanks for sharing😍😍🤩

What is the type of rechargeable battery that is placed?

Very very clever 😊. Shows us much more please.

Cool, but you need to learn how to solder properly.

Changing two AA battery of Max 3.2V to a Lithium Battery of Max 3.7, this is dangerous as the circuitry inside will have over-voltage.

This remote is also a powerbank now. Amazing!

Why cant u use rechargable cells?

Battery is better choice. Clean and very convenient.

It's an excellent idea. Here in Brazil, cheap batteries don't last long, and good batteries are a little expensive. I also do this here, but I place a diode in series with the positive wire to reduce the voltage to 3V, as the lithium battery is usually 3.7V. Thanks for the video.

Nasa deveria estudar esse gênio 😂 ele é o verdadeiro inventor da lâmpada

Me encanta gracias

Great creation, lad. You can do this with all VCR, DVD, and Blu-Ray remotes as options.

My bike has a wheel, let's make another wheel. It's like re-inventing the wheel.

Hello friend, that small battery do you know where you can buy them at a good price? I'll take care of the voltage stabilization, thank you 👍🏻🔝

Ill stick to my removable Energizer rechargeable batteries , 😅so hubby doesn't RIP the plug out of the controller when he forgets it is connected to the charger like he does his phone. But good start

Thank you Scotty kilmer

Saludo, donde sacastes la bateria pequeña

You must give running commentary and if you don't want that please explain in brief what you intend doing and what all is needed for your project.

Wow, soviel Arbeit um Batterien, die ca. 1 Euro kosten und ca.4-5 Jahre funktionieren, zu sparen. Man das rentiert sich ja in ca. 150 Jahren. Super...........bescheuert.

If only they made rechargeable AA & AAA batteries... Oh wait,...

The way of throwing away batteries made me laugh.

ça fait plus 30 ans que j'ai remplacé les piles pas des accus rechargeables ds tous mes appareils y copris ds les télécommandes de TV ,vidéo et autres idem a l'époque ds mon walkman, même ds la souris de l'ordi j'ai un accu R6, pour les télécommandes c des accu s de récup sur de vieux tels sans fil résidenciels (R3).et elle tiennes pratiquement 10 mois.

Great idea needs a little tweaking but the concept is there. The battery needs to be mounted off or need something to stop it , touching pcb, plastic mount, or something, I'm very surprised these are not already on the market, well may already be I haven't looked lol 👍

Ye parts kahan sey milaingy oar kitney price pr

But why!??? Even cheap zinc chloride cells last forever in a remote. Would cost me 50 cents at most to replace a pair.

Wouldve loved to see it interface with the device its for though

The new Rokus already come with rechargeable remotes, so it's obviously about to be a regular thing

Can I try this with my e skateboard remote? Cuz da battery is shot brand new

Why not just use rechargeable batteries?

How can I make a chager for remote controller betry

C'est une aberration, il suffisait de changer les anciennes batteries par des rechargeables ! D'ailleurs c'est ce que je fais pour toutes mes télécommandes.

Simply replace ordinary batteries with re-chargeable batteries - Job done - Ha ha!

I could buy a lifetime of batteries for the money of a new remote control.😂

lol, no battery, but still used battery. funny video .. :D

Muito mais prático usar pilhas recarregáveis na tensão de alimentação correta. Um custo inicial com carregador e pilhas que rapidamente vai compensar.

Bravo. Bravo. Bravissimo. Ma troppo complicato...

Thanx for the vid, but...I'll just keep on spending $1.25 (from Dollar Tree) for 6 batteries once every 18-24 months. Cheaper than replacing the remote that I'll probably tear up..

He wants you to buy these tools, do technical job, and finally visit his repair shop. Electronic company will offer him R&D job.

As i see it, a power bank circuit is calculated on 5V the battery replacement is 3.7V and two 1.5 batteries in series is 3V. The remote control circuit is calculated on 3V. So i forsee problems.

A remote that works in 3 volts will work in 1,5 volt .

Instead of batteries, one can arrange to connect a suitable power bank itself to the remote control !!!

😅 Para ficar melhor poderia usar um nobreak com uma bateria estacionária externa e algo que converta os 127 volts AC do nobreak na corrente CD necessária ao controle. Teria mais autonomia. O que acham da ideia?

Now instead of changing batteries once in a while. You get to change charging ports, and the battery. We all know how cheap those charging ports are, I have had ports go out a lot more then dead batteries. Just stating the facts. Fun to watch.

Exelente y muchas gracias 👍

In questo modo la corrente al telecomando ci arriva con il nostro pensiero molto geniale 😅

good for you >>>>>>. for others were they gna find Barclay parts by by by

Thanks fir shearing, never thought of this.

I for one see the genius in this! So many different applications besides tv remotes. Think bigger, this is epic.

Cool project I like it thanks

Obviously, this video is not for you guys who come from countries where remote controls are ordered off Amazon or rechargeable batteries are available at the bodega. Good job bro. Don't let these haters get in your way,

1:30 Why is it that when I take the cover off of something like this and turn it over, all the buttons fall out and his didn't?

I just subscribed and i see the point of the haters but you done a cool project! I see that you have other videos of great content. I cant wait to watch them! 👍

Patent it and sell it. The Chinese market would buy it and sell it for you

where are you country ethiopia I am not found

This is just so amazing

Whynot just use rechargeable AA's?

Good job! But it’s a bit bulky

Tere hunar ki kya tareef karoo, kuch kehte mujhe sharm aayegi . Great job aise hi jhande lagata reah.

Bad Idea! This is a lipo battery and meant to be charged and used right away and returned to storage voltage of 3.8v when not using. Lipo's should never be fully charged and just left that way. Will degrade and damage battery over time. More likely to swell and explode if left fully charged . Better idea would be to just put a usb plug on it and plug it into a 5 v adapter with a Buck Step-down Power Converter Module and dial in the correct voltage. Down side would be having to plug in, but you would'nt need batteries

Trop bien

how to charge without recgargible battery??

Das mit dem Löten müssen wir aber nochmal üben 😂.

The cost of 2 acide AA/AAA bat/ is about 10 cents/ Ok ... 20 cents and for two years life.... But the cost of Pover bank at leasst 1-2 dollars....In general the remote operate at 2 volts... Used batteries from ckloks 1.30 v welcome!

He should have used the solder iron and cut a hole at the bottom to charge the battery
