Hmm, I wonder how expensive some used "credit card" locks (like those found on hotel rooms) would be? Surely by now, someone has remodeled a hotel and replaced the locks ... so when you restock the

I'd think a solar gate charger/opener would supply enough juice. Add a car battery, and you can power the portable credit card validation and cell modem. But then you're paying for the credit card se

Thanks for sending that. I have to say, WOW, I need to be a full time inventor. That machine is weak at best. It's HUGE for such a small dispenser. Plus, at the end of the video, you can see it's mos
