The acids found in many fruits are enough
to produce approx. 1.5 volts DC which is
pretty much that of a AA or AAA battery.
Also, due to the variety of acids in fruits
you aren't just stuck with citrus flavors or
even fruits. Coffee, chocolate and
root beer are also viable alternatives.
At
first I was thinking that this idea would
just have a light at the other end of the
lollypop. The juice produced would be
more than ample enough for an LED.
Then I thought some versions of this
confection could have a DC jack on a wire
coming from the lollypop so you could
power that portable MP3/radio player
(small one) when you really need/want to.
It only has to stay wet to produce power
so you have hours of potential power.

Mom gave me a 'lectro-pop,
tell you why.
All of my gadgets suck her batt'ries dry.
My spit makes power,
so my stuff runs great.
But holy #@&% my fillings ache.

Potato is more popular but atomic sour
pops would work better. |

Engineer1, I wasn't suggesting lead but
they would make the lollypops taste
more sweet. |
