You gotta put a deposit down on it equal to the cost of the device.

If you check out the site, they say that at the end of the event, you can choose to keep it.

The thing that might make me wanna use this service is the fact that when the recharger is empty you can exchange it for a full one. Which means you don't have to worry about running your vehicle on its battery and pushing exhaust into everyone's camps.

"Ain't nobody got time fuh that!"

If you are running the car on its battery there is no exhaust.

However, I can't find out how much it is beyond their "explanation" that it costs less than a few drinks at the festival (paraphrased).

Looks like a battery block, or whatever they are. Pretty sure you can buy them at best buy for like $5 or $10 bucks. I have a feeling a lot of juggalos will be "renting" these and not giving them back. They better not take cash for rentals lol

Maybe you will have a neighbor who will be willing to charge your device in their car, so take a compatible car charger just in case.

If you rub your phone on your head right when it dies for 30 seconds you get enough of a charge to keep it on for 5 more minutes.  Not especially helpful until you really need to make that call.

Don't give me that look you Juggalos are all the same.  How can I expect people who don't understand magnets to understand static electricity.  Enjoy your dead phone loser.

Not static electricity... shaking of rechargeable batteries causes slight redistribution of electrolytes giving the battery a "revived" charge. If the rubbing is vigorous enough then the heat generated increases the electron exchange efficiency in the oxidation/reduction reaction of the battery.

Under most conditions, static electricity cannot charge a battery. To have that happen, you need to convert the high-voltage and low-current static electricity into low-voltage, moderate-current electricity for a long period of time. This does not happen naturally and definitely not via hair rubbing.

Oh Psyral you just couldn't roll with the joke could ya?  Think of the fun we coulda had laughing at the mouth breathers rubbing their  phones on their heads waiting for their turn at the charging station.

I'm guessing there's some pricey fucking drinks at the Gathering? I remember finding a twelve pack of Faygo there for ten bucks and being tricked into thinking it was a good price.

Okay so for all those of us who do not have RVs or balla campsites...how do you keep your electronic devices charged while u there.  I know the idea is to be far away from electricity when you camping...but im gonna wanna take pics  and have my phone as a safety precaution. ..plus i have a vapor e cigarette that is gonna need charging from time to time.

Might I recommend this handy dandy mother fucker qid=1432189760&sr=8-1&keywords=external+phone+charger   I've had one exactly like this for awhile and it hasn't failed me yet. I've taken it for weekend long camping trips and it comes in super fucking handy. It has some weight behind it but if you're vaping there's a high chance you're going to have your gear on you in a bag or some shit. This thing will more than likely fit right in it.
