Make a solar cell with a condom

Make a solar cell from a condom with this video tutorial. Solar energy is plentiful and better for the environment, so why not take an easily accessible commodity (like a condom), and use it to harvest the power of the sun. To replicate this hack at home, you'll need the following materials: 12 iron hairpins, 2 pennies (pressed before 1982), 2 electrical wires, 1 sheet of aluminum, 2 strong magnets, a condom, and mineral water. For more on making your own condom-based solar cell, watch this how-to.

the whole process of getting electricity from 2 metals is called electronegativity differencial, depending on the electronegativity of a given metal against other you'll have X amount of energy.I believe the lower the difference the better, otherwise the electron transfer would ocurr too fast
