Gregory's ServerA potato battery can push about three quarters of a volt*. That looks pretty clever to me.
*depending on your choice of electrodes, of course

 @smellsofbikes @lowqualityfacts Now THAT is an interesting question. It depends on how close and how far apart you can space electrodes, and there's no way to find out but by experiment.  @smellsofbikes @lowqualityfacts And zinc and copper* and voltmeters... this shit is gonna be huge, alright! *We will hunt up and down the galvanic series, don't worry @angelastella @lowqualityfacts heh I was just looking up electrical potentials and thinking lithium copper setups @smellsofbikes @lowqualityfacts Lithium is a bitch*. It's no wonder it took two hundred years of electrochemistry to tame it. *I'm a bitch too, but the good kind of bitch, as in "you pay me, we fuck, I forget all about it". @angelastella @lowqualityfacts I've electrochemically refined sodium before. Lithium would be a fun challenge. |
@angelastella @lowqualityfacts If you put enough electrodes in series you can get some voltage, and now I'm wondering just how many volts you can get from a single potato.
