Default Battlefield Battery Can Be Powered With Pee

I seriously can't think of a better thing to do with my pee... They just need to figure out a way to impliment an automatic flushing option once the cell is drained.

The portable, pee-powered battery, called MetalCell, can create enough of a charge to power a laptop for over four hours.

How about peeing on an apple tree?
  • Production cost is less than $3000/unit.
  • The entire process is carbon neutral.
  • The entire process does not put non-biodegradables into the environment.
  • You'll have apples as a result.
  • The R&D was amortized long ago.


I think Treehugger.com has lost their way.
