Not to mention you almost always have a refill handy in an emergency.

that's just the same old science fair thing of sticking two strips of different metals into a lemon or something and running a radio or light or something. the power isn't in the liquid, it's in the chemistry between the different metals. just like a regular battery.

<P itxtvisited="1">Admittedly it's not just urine that'll breath some life back 
into a dead cell; beer, tea, saliva or just about any other liquid substance 
will do. The offending fluid needs to be placed into a pipette and then attached 
to one end of the battery where something called 'Aqua Power System' uses 
magnesium and carbon to generate a charge that's then stored in the cell.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://uk.gizmodo.com/2009/01/14/nopopo_battery_charges_for_fre.html">
<P itxtvisited="1">It's not called 'NoPoPo' to inform you of one particular 
substance that won't work, but as an abbreviation of 'No Pollution Power' and it 
certainly seems to live up to the claim. Don't expect to be running your digital 
cameras or Wii remotes off this though; it'll only hold 500 mAh, which restricts 
it to things like clocks and remote controls.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/EA976D70-B121-44D4-8A62-97B112355A59/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
