1)get potato 2) get glados noise maker 3)stick noise maker to potato 4)stick wires to potato and noise maker to seem as if noise maker is powered by potato
how to make noise maker: 1)get small mp3 player 2)install GLaDOS sounds onto mp3 3)make a case around it like GLaDOS core thingy on the potato and make sure you can reach all the buttons 4)turn on mp3 and play sounds
actually i did check thinkgeek, they said a potato would not provide enough power to operate voice and LED's, she just senses when the wires are hooked up to the nails, a little button inside the alligator clips.
actually she is running off of 1 cell watch battery and the potato is just completing the circuit. She will work even if you just touch the 2 wires together.
The fruit/veggie battery relies on the flow of ions within the battery to create an electric current. Since most fruits contain enough ion to power it, pretty much anything that has enough juice (so the ions can flow) and does't fall apart when you stick in an electrode should be fine, I think. The difference would be what kinds of devices they can power and for how long. Citrus fruit (including lemon) could be better, I'd imagine, because of the high acidity (hence high amount of ions).
Just bought the exact kit to make this today! It's so much fun, though my cat hates it. More PotatOS for me! Also, the science project thing is by Chell. :)
you do know she's not powered by the potato in this model right? she's battery powered, make a fake potato, she still works, and, with a fake potato, no smelly mold!
Yea, never in the history of the computer nobody ripped sounds from a game. Also, nobody ever used a LED to indicate sound making. Sarcasm, *hint hint*.
@RodneyPlusGirls it matters when you try to attack the person making a joke and then lie about the simple fact that you made a mistake, i say insulting me when YOU are wrong matters to me
holy shit i didn't even realize who the guy was till i saw the name of the RU-vid account. and i want a portato just like this now (portato not a typo listen to the game)
