Yes you can charge a mobile device with fruit.

There is always something fun going on in technology. It’s not just your breakthrough gadgets; there are other more pedestrian ways to learn something new and cool. For example, ways to charge your devices without an actual charger in hand. Do you recall that science project you had back in the sixth grade – you know the one where you test the electricity in fruit? You probably had a small light bulb, a lemon, lime, grapefruit, apple and tomato, a galvanized nail and some kind of measuring instrument to measure the electric current in the circuit to the light bulb. Does this sound familiar? In 2014, you don’t need all of these items. You can charge your mobile device with fruit. Check out this video to see how you can charge an iPhone with a watermelon.
If you are ever away form an electrical outlet and your phone is dying, let’s hope you have an apple in your pocket. The acid from the fruit’s juice will charge your iPhone or Android device with ease. This mostly accomplished through fruits with high acidity; however, you can charge a cell phone with a banana. If you having the dilemma of not knowing if your charger is charging your phone, swap it out with a piece of fruit to see if the connection is in the chord or the power source. If the chord fails with the fruit, take that charger back to T-mobile and get a new one. Until then…an apple day keeps you online.
