Getting more paper towel from that automatic paper towel dispenser

Learn how to get more than just a little bit of paper towel from an automatic paper towel dispenser.
I know that this works on the Georgia Pacific enMotion, but it might work on others too.

Step 1: Things Needed

You will need to be in a bathroom that has an automatic paper towel dispenser
And you will need to be in need of more paper towel than it dispenses

You will also need a hand.

you can get these to feed paper towels by placing a walkie talkie next to the sensor and keying it up it will feed until you release

A wake-talkie with wet hands?

As Peter Griffin says (about those air dryers):

"These things never get 'em completely dry."

And right he his! =P I'll try this next time I go to O'Charlie's!

ever tried a dyson airblade. Those rule and get it completely dry.

i already knew this trick

you should add that when you pull on it it will make a click noise then the light blinks.

Interesting - but do you really need more paper to wipe your hands dry?

I do this all the time at Costco or whatever. Pull it really slowly, and it doesn't rip. Thanks for showing it here. Nice job.

yeah, I thought your instructable would be about the small slider switches, like dacker said

...or you could do what I've done at work. Just about any small flathead screwdriver can be used to open-up the dispenser. I've used a small one on my Leatherman Wave. Once you open the dispenser, there is a small switch marked, "Short, Medium, and Long" (or S, M, and L.) Set the switch to medium (or long), then close the cover. No more wet hands!
