I highly recommend this
My daughter used this for her 4th-grade science project and did really well. The instructions were easy to follow, and it was affordable.

DIY Conversion of Energy Science Experiment by LED Alarm Clock using Potato
You May know Potatoes as a Good source of potassium but did you know they can be used to power an alarm clock. The two potatoes allow you to generate enough electricity to run a digital Clock. Just push the Zinc And Copper electrodes into the potatoes causing an Oxidation/Reduction reaction that is converted to low voltage.

1. How do you power an alarm clock with a potato?
- If there is a battery already in the clock, remove it.
- Insert a galvanized nail into each potato.
- Insert a short piece of copper wire into each potato.
- Use an alligator clip to connect the copper wire of one potato to the positive (+) terminal of the clock's battery compartment.
2. Is it possible to power a clock with a potato?
- A potato clock works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy, which is then used to power the clock. A battery can be made by combining zinc and copper strips with a potato.
3. How do you get electricity from a potato?
- You can generate enough electricity to run a digital clock with just two potatoes. Simply push the Zinc and Copper electrodes into the potatoes, which will cause an Oxidation/Reduction reaction that will be converted to low voltage.
4. Why does a potato clock need two potatoes?
- Two potatoes can be linked together to double the voltage, just as two batteries can be linked together to double the voltage. The potato clock can be powered with this voltage.
