Overclocking your toothbrush: a DIY vid

You know you've tried to overclock too much when


It seems that the standard for techie 1337-dom is the ability to overclock just about anything from personal desktop PCs to handheld gadgets. There have been many jokes about how to tell when you've overclocked a bit too much, most notable is having tried to overclock your hamster (haha). Personally, I think you've been overclocking too much when you start doing what they're doing in the clip below.

Yes, that is a regular electric toothbrush. Yes, they're amping it up.

Gee... I wonder what it'll do to your gums? Kidding aside, that's Kevin Rose and what he's really trying to do is make a regular six dollar electric toothbrush perform like its $100 Sonicare counterpart. Click play to get the whole how-to.

You just gotta love those crazy folks from The ScreenSavers.
