Greg – is this video for real? If so how long is the life of the orange battery, and does it still drain quickly in gps mode? The potato battery may just solve the acceleration issues Toyota has been experiencing – hehe. Reply
Sorry to disapoint all of you, but the energy the orange battery produced came from the zinc that was inserted into it. That zinc was not produced in a carbon neutral way. (neither were the oranges for that matter). Reply
I’m no engineer, but I sense that there may be a couple of obstacles to using this as a large-scale power source. Reply
Aw, I was hoping it would pull way, way back before the fade.

If you leave the fruit on the tree, does it charge longer?
