When we face minor problems, sometimes all it takes is a little imagination and creativity to find a solution. UAportal has prepared three life hacks that may seem unusual, but turned out to be incredibly effective and practical in real life.

1. One battery instead of two

Imagine that you are in a situation where you have only one spare battery. There is a tricky life hack that can save the day. By installing the battery diagonally, with the plus and minus sides correctly aligned, you can successfully power one device.

However, keep in mind that using this method for a long time or connecting multiple devices in parallel will drain the battery faster. It's best to use it as a short-term solution when you're in a pinch.

2. How to fix cracked headphone cushions

Over time, headphone cushions can deteriorate, crack, and fall off. Fortunately, there are two simple solutions to this problem. You can either gently peel off the damaged ear cushion by hand, or you can use ordinary duct tape to solve the problem faster and more efficiently. Just stick the tape on the cracked area, and in a few minutes your headphones will look almost like new.

3. How not to forget anything

Have you ever felt constantly worried that you forgot something important when you left the house? This is a common feeling, especially when our minds are preoccupied in the early morning. One practical way to overcome forgetfulness is to put the thing you don't want to forget next to your keys.

Since we rarely leave the house without our keys, grabbing them on the way out reminds us to take the thing that's lying next to them. This is a simple but effective life hack.
