Geocache Description:


You don't need to push, pull, or turn anything on this cache.  All you need to do is touch things or lightly grasp them to make it work.  Also,  PLEASE repace the lock exactly like you found it.  The line on the lock which you line up the dials should be facing out.  To relock it, you must have the dials in the order you unlocked it.  Then push the lock back together and spin the dials.  

You don't need to push, pull, or turn any of the gadgets on the cache. So Please Don't.

Welcome to another of Duck's Gadget Caches.  This cache is located on private property with permission, so please respect the area.  At certain times there may be muggles in the area.  As with all gadget caches, there is no need to tear or pry anything apart. 

The Cache & Electricity - In Geocaching:

We have all seen the battery operated Geocaches. We have night caches where you use a flashlight to follow a trail of 'fire tacks' through the woods until you come to the final destination and find... a smiley. What about the electricity in your Droid, iPhone or GPS devices that are used in order to hunt down that every so elusive cache! Electricity is all around us .... and in us!

Upon arriving at GZ you will find a Ducks Gadget cache staple, a bird house! This is no normal bird house though. This bird house has metal objects protruding from it. What do I do you ask? Well first let us look at a few FACTS:

 

FACT: This cache uses electricity.

FACT: Electricity WILL flow through your body in order to complete the circuit.

FACT: You have to make the choice of which two bolts to grab and squeeze! Being afraid to squeeze will result in no smiley!

FACT: DC voltage can be felt at as little as 5mA! How much will this cache produce?

FACT: Calling 911 will get you medical emergency help if needed.

PLEASE ATTEMPT THIS CACHE AT YOUR OWN RISK !

Before attempting this cache, ask yourself this! Is there enough electricity (voltage) in this cache to cause me pain! After completing the circuit, the cache will provide you with the necessary combination to the lock, as long as you are looking at the cache correctly! To complete the circuit, you will need to select two of the protruding metal objects and squeeze one with each hand. Continue to choose combinations of metal objects until the cache reveals the hidden code. The combination lock can be opened by entering the first 4 letters of the middle color the cache revealed when you completed the circuit.

Please put everything back as you found it and reset the lock. Please do not give away anything about this cache in your logs!

It is your job to interact with the container to retrieve the log. If you enjoy this type of cache, let us know by your logs.

As always, if this cache needs attention, please let us know by putting something in the online log or by email.

Happy Caching!
