This clock has been running for nearly 17 hours. We bought "Lemon Clock" kit from Maplins. Will try to get a better picture later.

Looks like fun ! We use something similar as a teaching aid where I work.

Wonder, as those two tomatoes seem to be doing an AA battery job, whether it would be feasible to hook up a fan for greenhouse ventilation using tomatoes or damaged produce.

Worked out how to set time. Had to change "batteries" due to various growths. Now is powered by an onion and banana but it is running fast  :o
