Apples power lamps!

Do you have an apple tree sitting in your garden not doing much apart from looking very English, well if you have the inclination why not make it into a electrical energy source and power some outside lights. Photographer Caleb Charland pulled the power from around 300 apples to light up some LED lamps. Charland hooked wires into about 300 apples that were still connected to their trees and found that it only took about 10 apples to power each LED light. So let me do some maths here, 300 apples 10 apples for each LED, you could run a small city 30 LED lights, I'm going to the DIY store to get some cable.
