All,

Hello. I have a bunch of brand new AAA NiMH's that are sitting in their original wrappings, and as we all know, if you don't use them, they (not-so-)slowly die and become useless. Thing is, I do have a bunch of devices that require AA's. Do any of you have ideas on how to build an adapter to "upsize" AAA to AA?

The problem of increasing thickness is easy to solve; any type of wrapping will do. Extending the length is another matter; I can't think of any common object or malleable material that is conductive and will fit in shape. Any ideas?

(The above paragraph should NOT be read in the context of male enhancement products. Cool off your dirty minds, please.)
