You know people have been asking for batteries powered by urine for a long time, so it comes as absolutely no surprise to anyone ever, in the history of the world, that they are now available.

    I dont think we have anything to worry about.

    The angsty teens they get to pilot them arent going to be much of a threat.

    If you could bottle it, you probably could get energy from it. Fairly clean energy too, excluding the CO2. I'd figure that CO2 could be rerouted to diesel algae harvesting factories to make even energy based off pure awesome.

    Who wants to take bets that in the next 50 years they're going to find a way to successfully and cleanly build super power plants that use garbage and human waste to get energy. Sort of like the Mister Fusion devices in Back to the Future 2.

    Please.

    Fart power clearly comes under the purview of Wind.

    Captain Planet may be willing to accept new accomplices but he is a stickler for efficiency.

    aw man
    But if you're not the peeing into pipettes type, you can also use water, beer, saliva, apple juice or coco-cola. A mixture of magnesium and carbon reacts with the liquid and produces power up to 500 mAh in the case of an AA-size battery. The batteries come in AA and AAA and retain their charge for up to 10 years, but they can only be recharged two to five times, on average.

    damn you, chemistry

    good for nothin' something or [tiny]other[/tiny]
