Next set up the same way BUT connect the wires coming out of the carrier to each end of a 3amp fuse. Put a fresh battery in the carrier and let bake for a minute.

Experiment 2: Let's Abuse a Battery
In this experiment I had to intentionally short circuit a battery, not this most productive thing to do with your life BUT it's for science. SO connect the 1.5 V AA battery to the battery carrier and alligator clip the cords together and give it some time to bake.
RESULTS: Semi burned finger, hot baked battery, and a sweet satisfaction at having the power of destruction at your fingertips.
Next set up the same way BUT connect the wires coming out of the carrier to each end of a 3amp fuse. Put a fresh battery in the carrier and let bake for a minute.
RESULTS: The battery should come out unharmed while your fuse on the other hand should be broken. If you look closely you can actually see the broken wire in the fuse. My camera didn't accurately capture the broken nature of the fuse.
