Would hate to carry a car battery size cell phone on my shoulder. Yeah, especially sloshing with pee. I don't think marketing it as a "fashion accessory" is going to help.

Hmmm, I’m seeing a potential combination of composting toilet/power source here. Maybe just enough to run a few LED lamps, but still, useful in the off-grid homestead.

This should make my middle son so happy. He’s always dropping his cell phone in the toilet.

I would be a little apprehensive about being in the room with the seated scientists pictured, as it looks as though they are wearing lab coats but no pants....

Now I’ll have a great excuse for hanging out at the tavern...I’m busy re-charging my iPhone!
