Cut a 9V bettery to get bunch of a AAAA’s

I’m filing this under “cool shit I didn’t know about”. It turns out that if you cut a standard 9V Duracell you will get 6 small 1.5V battery cells which are essentially your standard AAAA batteries:

Interesting. I had no clue that this was how they made them.

      That is definitely cool obscure shit. The other day I thought I was clever for using AAs as Cs, but this is cooler.
