  • Total waste

    If this is even re,otely true, doing it is ILLEAGAL. That means that anyone who gets caught doing it, and they will, will not only pay for tgetting the newer, digital meters, pay back what the electric company "believes" that you actually used, pay a fine AND maybe even spend time in jail.

    Can you be just a little more stupid?

  • Just when you think

    you've seen everything stupid, there's more!!!
    WTF was this, a guy with a hair dryer blowing on a meter?
    For what, and why?
    Perhaps some captioning, or other explanation would help, as all I saw was a hair dryer or heat gun, and nothing else...

  • Stop

    That is a bunch of crap S**t video, stop the crap and be honest to the people who see your crap video.

  • Magnet....

    The key to this trick is using a very powerful magnet that is being placed near the spinning disc (made of metal) which eventually slows down the spinning disc thus reducing meter readings since the meter reading (in numbers) is being turned by the spinning disc....think of it as a clock

    But this is an old meter.....so this trick might not work if you r using the latest electricity meter which has a non metal spinning disc...

  • Proper description

    This video illustrates the COMPLETE stoppage of an electricity meter (check the video till the end)with a hi-power appliance still being plugged-in and working. Hair drier (or actualy it can be any power-appliance) is used solely for demonstration purpose. On some occasions, the meter may even go backward depending if the sigh of a "pinnion". Please do not be confused, and don't try to blow away the meter readings as it won't work.
    Please visit the source to get the detailed description, practical implementation and picture report.

  • use modified battery charger to rewind i...

    or drill small hole and insert a thin wire insulated at the holding end, and jam the wheel..

    By ABUSIVE-BASTARD 1230733200
    • or drill a smal hole in your head :)

      Presented here aren't the methods implying damage to metering equipment by way of drilling of or sticking into some foreign objects like pieces of Kodak film, toothpicks, etc.

  • Thats dumb

    Thats not cutting it its making it go even faster!!! look at the dial it goes faster when you turn the air dryer on.

    By prankman49 1230726411
    • watch it till the end.

      May be not the most succesfull demonstration. I will change it later for a new one.

      By cutyourbill 1230819151
    • the demonstration isn't the problem...

      it's the fact you have given no explination... no sollution.
