Picture of a disassembled Duracell 9v battery. Below the terminal assembly is a clear plastic case where you can see six sets of stacked rectangular terminals and fillings.

      They used to think that sort of thing was cool in the 90s.

      They were right. I stand by this claim.

          A friend of mine had one as a teenager and then brought it with him to his dorm room after high school. We called it Pavlov because it had to be answered when it rang.

        I saw one of these at Target the other day in the $5-and-below section. Except it wasn’t a full phone, it was a nostalgia grab designed to be a wired “headset” for a cell phone with a headphone jack.

        Who needs protection when you have cool lookin batteries?

        Jokes aside, maybe a print of how the insides look would be cool, too. Like the phone cases from that recent JerryRigs drama.
