When you gotta TXT, you’ve gotta TXT. This Ugandan woman had to travel 20 miles by bicycle to recharge her phone so she came up with a better option on her own. It seems that she wrapped five D batteries together and then attached wires to the positive and negative terminals of the phone charger. Who knows how well it works but hopefully it saves the lady a few trips on her bike. Larger pics after the link.
