[QUOTE="Harte, post: 28463, member: 443"] [b]Re: Earth Battery Experiment[/b] <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(\"virtualgirl\")</div> I'm sorry VG, I didn't mean that as a knock on you, more like a knock on the idea that getting voltage from a potato is some miraculous, novel thing. This potato thing is another example of a galvanic cell, which since you took electronics I'm sure you're aware of. It is the reason you have sacrificial anodes on ships - there is one at the base of most outboard motors, and all over battleships and carriers - so that the galvanic corrosion doesn't eat up your ship or motor's drivetrain. Galvanic cells are cool though. You hold one in your hand every time you hold a battery. I have yet to see anything on this thread that can't be explained by galvanic corrosion.
