Clock Bio-Electrolytic
Product Code : LSK-CL-10049
Clock Bio-Electrolytic (SKU LSK-CL-10049) is a clock powered by copper and zinc electrodes rather than a battery. Students add an everyday material – toothpaste, a sauce or a cola drink – to the electrodes, and the electrochemical cell this forms runs the clock. It is a memorable way to show middle- and secondary-school classes that electricity can come from chemical reactions. Schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors can buy the clock through Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India.
Specifications
What the bio-electrolytic clock consists of, and how it is powered, is laid out in the table. Its short version: a clock fitted with copper and zinc electrodes that runs on whatever material students add to those electrodes, designed to demonstrate the principle of an electrochemical cell without any battery.

Applications and Experiments for the Bio-Electrolytic Clock
The bio-clock turns the textbook idea of a galvanic cell into something students can test themselves. By swapping the material on the copper and zinc electrodes, they compare which substances run the clock and connect the result to acidity, dissolved salts and the movement of ions between the two metals.
- Class 6–8 science: electricity from chemical reactions and simple circuits.
- Class 10 science: acids, bases and salts as conductors, checking each material's acidity with a pH Pocket Tester.
- Class 12 chemistry: galvanic cells and electrode reactions, reading the voltage across the electrodes on a Digital Voltmeter.
- Science fairs and STEM clubs: fair tests comparing household electrolytes.
Wipe the electrodes clean after each trial so that old residues do not affect the next result; materials used on the electrodes must not be eaten afterwards.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Clock Bio-Electrolytic is supplied as a single unit with its copper and zinc electrodes. The materials used to run it, such as toothpaste or sauces, are provided by the user, and any optional accessories are named on the quotation so the class set can be planned in advance.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You can ask for one clock for classroom demonstrations or several for group investigations. Each quotation lists packing, delivery time and price for the quantity requested, and science kits or other electrochemistry items can be priced together on the same document.
Science Lab Supplies, a registered exporter holding an Importer-Exporter Code, can ship to buyers in Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq and Nigeria. Planning a STEM club or science-fair session? Say how many clocks you need on the contact page, or pair them with meters in the enquiry cart; buyers working to a published tender can follow the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What can I use to power the bio-clock?
Almost any moist material, such as toothpaste, sauces or a cola drink. It is added to the copper and zinc electrodes, which together with that material act as an electrochemical cell that runs the clock.
Does the clock need a battery?
No. The copper and zinc electrodes, together with the material you add, form the cell that powers it. That is the point of the demonstration: the electricity comes from a chemical reaction.
Who supplies the Clock Bio-Electrolytic?
Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India is the supplier for this clock. It can be quoted on its own or together with simple cells, Daniell cells and meters for a complete electrochemistry teaching set.
Which classes is it suitable for?
It fits middle-school lessons on electricity, secondary chemistry lessons on cells and electrode reactions, and science-fair investigations comparing how different household materials perform as electrolytes.
