It is just like a potato-powered clock. It gives the battery energy. Creating a battery from a lemon is a common project in many science text books. Successfully creating one of these devices is not easy.
Batteries consist of two different metals suspended in an acidic solution. Copper and Zinc work well as the metals and the citric acid content of a lemon will provide the acidic solution.
Batteries like this will not be able to run a motor or energize most light bulbs. It is possible to produce a dim glow from an LED.

How do you hook up a lemon to a battery pack?
It's actually possible to connect a lemon to a battery--especially if that battery is another lemon. While this statement may seem confusing, it really isn't. One popular lemon battery experiment shows students how to create a voltaic battery with a lemon. This type of battery converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Further exploration of this principle will allow you to connect one lemon battery to another lemon battery. One lemon will produce approximately 7/10 of a volt of electricity. And two lemon batteries connected to each other generally create enough energy to power a digital watch.
Can a lemon covered battery make a coil spin faster?
Covering a battery with a lemon will ruin the battery and will not make the appliance to which the battery is connected go faster.
