the metal thing that's attached to the station in one of the charger ports was broken and i haven't had my wii for several months so i hadn't thought about it in a while and my brother who had it told me that the station and/or batteries were broken
so when i finally got it all back the other day i fiddled around with the batteries first with the charger port that was working and both the battery packs were working, but the other charger port still didn't work
so after remembering a science lesson from 5th grade involving a battery, a small light bulb, and a tinfoil gum wrapper, i found some tinfoil and poked it in there making it touch the broken spring and WA LA!
It WORKS!
I feel like such a genius xD

I'll tell you one thing... :> You would have made your 5th grade science teacher very proud.
biggrin DD yay for mechanically inclined people that can fix stuffs by using their brain! <333 I love doing this with my non-working gadgets around the house. Tinkering is fun.
