DIY 9v Battery Powered USB charger!

Nov 4, 2009 DIY

This little treat comes to us via AnyThingButiPod and is actually a cool little DIY hack. How many times have you needed a little extra juice for your blackberry (or other device) at the end of the day but weren’t able to find a wall jack or fireup the computer to plug in to the usb ports? Happens to me all the time. Now, with this little device, I could simply hook my Bold up to a 9v (or other) battery and call it a day.

The parts cost less then $10 total and there’s little more then 5 solder connections to make before its done and ready to go. Do need to double check the power setup on the usb to make sure you connect to the right pins, but otherwise, this handy little DIY hack could extend your battery life for you!
