A friend of mine and of others here has done some experiments with potato
batteries powering a Lowfer transmitter. Is anyone else game for trying out
this experiment??? It could add a new twist to Lowfer operations. I was told
that each potato cell produced about 1/2 volt at 1ma output. Potatoes are
cheep so this could be fun & low cost. If you got discouraged midway through
the experiment, you could always slice up the rest of the bag and add some
onions and then fry them up for a yummy treat. Hi Hi. Ideas, comments,
suggestions & flames are welcome of course.
