I married McGyver

So we are heading out on our annual Priest Lake camping trip and wondering how do we keep our cell phones charged so people can get a hold of us or we get a hold of someone in emergency. Ben to the rescue. He made a 12 volt charger.

 Taped two 6 volt batteries together, wired in a 12 volt car charger and TA DA!

 I guess he used to do this a lot up in Alaska for camping and emergencies. I gotta tell the folks about this. Losing their cell phone charge is a big worry for them when the power goes out.  You can charge anything you want as long as you have the proper AC adapter. AMAZING!
