Sir:
A recent entry on your blog from ‘Tanker’ gave the link to a video on the Lifehacker web site [1]. The last video he mentioned was made by a poster named KipKay. I have been a fan of KipKay’s for several months. He posts regularly on Metacafe.com [2]. Incidentally, for each video he is paid and he has made approximately $55,000 from his creations. He has several videos that may be of interest to your audience. Below are the links and a brief description of each. Please decide if any of these merit inclusion on your blog. His official web site is www.KipKay.com [3].
In this video he shows how to turn an ordinary AA Maglite into a laser capable of popping a balloon or lighting a match. [4]
In this video he shows how to make an underwater camera housing for a fraction of what a commercial model would cost [5]. He uses an ammo can, a piece of plexiglas, velcro and marine sealant.
He shows how to make a USB powered cell phone charger [6].
He shows how to take a cheap flashlight and make a super bright Surefire-type flashlight for ten dollars [7]. He doesn’t give any information about battery life but the final cost is less than ten dollars.
KipKay shows how to double gas mileage (at least in his car) [8].
KipKay shows how to get 6 AAA batteries from one nine volt battery (in case of an emergency) [9].
He has various other videos that are very interesting. KipKay also occasionally posts at Instructables.com [10] which is a fascinating web site in its own right. Regards, – Caesar
