The potato is just the electrolyte. The energy comes the oxidation of the metal electrodes.

Thank fuck, I thought that's a bunch of C4 and you're trying to smoke a whole village.

I wont be impressed until the entire circuit including the wiring is made of potatoes and it runs doom eternal with ray tracing, 16K

Screw Doom Eternal; I want to see it run Portal 2.

This has me wondering if baked potatoes or raw potatoes create more power.

Apparently, boiling is the superior option.

Tenfold increase in energy yields by boiling.

After you boil them, is mashing them preferable? Or does that ruin the whole thing?
