The other day I was using my camera and it seems that everytime I do, after a few videos or a few pictures, the battery light comes on. I pull the batteries out, swap in new ones, and the old ones sit around, cause I'm too cheap to take them to work and recycle them. If I measure them with a voltmeter, I get like 1.2 volts. If you think about it, most of the batteries that go dead in a camera or other electronic equipment still carry a decent amount of voltage.
My question is, is there a logical way to drain the voltage from batteries that are too low to power a camera, but still carry too much voltage to be deemed junk?
I'm not talking big like powering my 46" TV...I'm talking something that makes more sense than having 2 dozen batteries that are "low" awaiting their final destination of powering the clock in my garage.

You could make some LED magnetic stickies and place them on signs around town to annoy people.
