The engadget peeps should buy one and provide a video of this scientific breakthrough.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/http://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/Dec 19th 2005 1:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/http://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/
Basically, the water just creates a wet-cell from a pair of contacts. It is _really_ running on zinc, I bet. Once the zinc corrodes away, the clock will no longer work.

Zinc and Copper work extraordinarily well.

Almost any conductive liquid will work... slightly acid liquids, like orange juice or dilute vinegar, work best, but ordinary tap water is OK if it has enough dissolved minerals in it. Very pure water won't work at all.

The manufacturer is doing us a real disservice by making this look like some sort of super-scientific magic. It would be much more impressive if they explained what it was really doing and pointed out how amazingly simple battery technology really is.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/http://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/Dec 19th 2005 1:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/http://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/Dec 19th 2005 1:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/http://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/Dec 19th 2005 1:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/http://www.engadget.com/2005/01/19/real-goods-really-offers-real-water-powered-clock-calc-for/
does anyone know where I can buy a water powered wristwatch?

In the previous posts I saw people talking about it. I also saw it when I was little (if I only had allowence or some money back then...)

Please let me know.
