How to make fire with a lemon


If you ever find yourself in need of a flame but are lacking the combustibles, consider tapping into the electrical power of a lemon.

After plugging 6 copper braids and 6 zinc nails into the lemon, you can wrap wires around them diagonally, as displayed in this image

Once hooked up, you run wires from the 2 unwired corners, using one as a positive node (anode) and another as the negative node (cathode).  These are the live wires.

Touch them both to a piece of steel wool and run the current through it.  This will set it on fire.  Throw some paper, tissue, kindling or any other simple combustible material you can find to get the fire going, then add your wood (or whatever else you’re using as fuel).

Before long, you’ll have a 5 Volt lemon and a raging fire.
