HouseholdHacker is an inactive YouTube channel that posted videos of various "hacks", or quick solutions to common everyday problems. As of July 2022, the channel has 4.87 million subscribers and over 929 million views. The group is primarily known for its 2007 hoax video which claimed one could charge an iPod battery using an onion and Gatorade. The video fooled normally reliable sources, and drew the attention of the MythBusters among others. A few additional hoax videos followed, but drew less attention.
