Can the battery in a 2000 Lexus LS400 be changed without going to a garage or dealership?
yes, but you need an adapter that plugs into the cigarette lighter. attached to the adapter is a 9volt battery. plug that into the lighter before disconnecting the cables to the car battery. that adapter w/ the 9 volt battery attached to it will keep just enough voltage in the cars computer system to allow you to change the cars battery. w/o that adapter when you disconnect the old battery and reconnect the new battery the cars onboard computer system will default and blow several fuses. go to an auto parts store and rent the adapter for a few bucks.

How do you make a heart out of 2 cigarette lighters?
You break one of the lighters and pour the liquid inside on a plate, pour it in a heart shape. Use the other one to put the liquid on fire, now you have a burning heart! Just make sure you do this when sober, alert or under the surveillance of an adult. Make sure you kill the flames afterwards!

How does a cigarette lighter work?
It depends on the type of lighter.Butane lighters - When you spin the wheel, it hits the flint and creates sparks. Then as you push down the flat part (which is often red) it releases gas and the sparks from the flint ignite the gas thus making fire.Reusable fluid lighters - These are metal lighters and contain wadding and/or a sponge which contains liquid lighter fluid, and a wick extends up to a wheel and flint. These work somewhat like a kerosene lantern. The flint and wheel lights the fuel-soaked wick. Folding the lid shut smothers out the fire. These are ideal for lighting pipes and cigars since you don't have to hold down any lever.Electric lighters - These are found in cars and were once used in buildings. A special wire creates electrical resistance and heat as electricity passes through it. It doesn't create an open flame, but does get just hot enough to light a cigarette. In a car, the lighter is spring loaded, and there is metal designed to stick to hold the lighter in the socket to make contact. Then as it becomes hot enough to use, the metal gives and the spring makes it pop out, alerting you to the fact it is ready to use. Car lighters can be used for both cigarettes and cigars. Wall lighters use a heating element like in the car lighters, but those work by sticking a cigarette through a hole and holding a button until it is lit. Some would colloquially call it "kissing the wall."
