Never Buy New Batteries Again: How Salt Can Revive Old Ones

Dip Battery Terminals:
Place just the positive and negative ends of the battery in the salt solution for a few minutes. Avoid submerging the entire battery.

Dry Thoroughly:
Remove the battery and wipe it completely with a paper towel to remove moisture.

Test the Battery:
Insert the battery into a device to see if it works. If needed, repeat the process once more.
