    I have not tried this so I will not vouch for it. If anyone has tried, or has any opinions on the topic, founded or unfounded, scientific or religious, please feel free to post them here.

    As I see it, the great thing about this is that if there is a nuclear war and there's no electricity, but you have plenty of gatoraid and onions, you will be able to listen to your iPod until the radioactive fallout finally gets you.

    Also of interest to post-WW-III iPod listeners would be: Will this work with salt water as the electrolyte? Or must you use a commercial energy drink?
