We looked at a urine-powered battery in the past, but the NoPoPo from Japan has actually commercialized that concept, coming in both AA and AAA sizes. A single urine-powered AA battery is capable of powering a flashlight for approximately 20 hours, and each purchase comes with a plastic pipette that enables users to inject urine into the battery chamber. For those who think that this is a gross idea, you cna always use other liquids like beer, apple juice, cola, and saliva in addition to urine.
