Great way to live life. With a view like that. There's always something new to learn.

Yup. If I see someone doing this to even my daily, imma head to a different shop. Such a simple thing....

Nice gig! That's an even better deal than I get.

Unfortunately I'm short on things like wheel alignment machines. They are a little outside of my price range for now.

@@saddletramp1979 well I am an enthusiastic amateur.

@@geoffdodd129 haha

They certainly grow like weeds once they get started!

I believe they are a variation of cold resistant highland blackberries.

Perhaps a fence could help? ;)

Yah they are quite the pain. Fun fact chickens go crazy for them!

Hehe I was going for a minimalist representation ;)

Of course you can. If you do end up making it I hope you enjoy the process. Cheers!

That would be a lot of fun. Maybe one day I can make it happen!

Awesome, thank you! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed my video :)

Many thanks! :)

Just some off the shelf acrylic paint and dry graphite lubricant.

Very curious. You commented on one of my other videos right? I was thinking about what you said since then. Do you mix anything else in or is it just KOH and urea forming the liquid? I'm wondering if your making a deep eutectic solvent. Which is pretty cool. Also do you know what the liquids ph is? And does the aluminum bubble alot when the liquid is touching it? I have both these chemicals so I'm probably going to try it. Just wondering what your experience has been so far. Thanks for the comment 😊

@@MechanicGoneRogue : Nothing , Just Pure Urea granules , and pure KOH flakes. if you need i can make video as well. 1. Put some urea in a beaker (5 grams), add few flakes of KOH in the beaker, mix it leave it for few seconds (10 to 20 seconds) , smash flakes on urea, it will turn into liquid, 2. Extract it just by tilting beaker .because of liquid, urea granule stick to beaker's wall and rest of liquid will go downside , simply extract it :D .. This liquid have super electric charges but dont know what exactly it is :( ..

one most important thing to consider, KOH flakes will be higher than UREA. If you use Stirring machine.. Less Urea + More KOH .. If you use same amount like 5g of Urea + 5Gram of KOH , it will turn into liquid but Urea will be there.. To dissolve urea you need to add KOH .. We can play with the ratios and check their performance in battery environment. I wanted to test in some battery environment , if possible for you please make a video on it .. 1. Graphite anode cathode with additives + given electrolyte . (UREA KOH) different ratio performance. 2. Graphite foil treated with KMNO4 ( Few hours at 60 to 80c .

OK thanks for all the info and the suggestion. This seems to have some merit. I'll be sure to give it a try when I can. Cheers!

@@MechanicGoneRogue i again created this solution. Make sure to use hand gloves , its highly alkaline in nature. One of the biggest advantage is higher concentration of koh. Here 20 c temp. Transparent liquid is very hard to make but translucent is easy. Its gel like structure now. Note : just focus on flakes or granuelle in mixture. Avoid powder. Granuelle means solution have more urea. Flakes means solution have more Koh . If Koh flakes in solution , add urea. And if urea granuelle is there then add urea (small quantity) , you can heat uoto 60 c. I tested on this for short period a . Rest on test.. please tag me as we if you work on this.

Oh cool. I've worked with activated carbon in other configurations, the best I got was 150 mA at 1.2V, but that was using a catalyst and special electrolyte as well.

@@MechanicGoneRogue tried yesterday with KOH UREA DES :d ,, GOT 200mah with 1.2 V Size 2cm * 3cm electrodes :D .

I was working off the theory that alkaline electeolyes are better than neutral ones. The baking soda is meant to make the electrolyte alkaline. Although it's only mildly alkaline it's meant to be a safer easier alternative to KOH.

Do you know which brand of carbon spray? I tried one before, but it didn't work. The manufacturer had mixed something into it to increase the resistance of the spray. Which defeated the purpose for me.

Correction. Its a graphite spray. Not carbon. Its sold as a dry lubricant. The brand is called ZEP. I'm not sure if it's still sold. Its an old can. I found them at work. Also check out the dual carbon battery. Its rechargeable. Robbert Murray smith has an ok video on it

OK well I certianly didn't try that brand. I'll have to look for it. Having a spray on cathode would be helpful.

Thanks for the idea. I'll be sure to give it a shot.

Hi there. Thanks for your comment and honest feedback. It'll help me make better videos in the future. That being said. This is an older video of mine. I've made a lot of improvements to the battery and to video editing since then. If you want to learn more about aluminum air batteries, maybe one of my newer videos could help you better. Either way. Thanks again. Cheers!

@@MechanicGoneRogue Awesome. I appreciate your response. I will most certainly look into them.

No definitely not enough power to start a car.

ok thank,of course ment i bigger one

Thanks alot!

Thanks for the tips. Video making is definitely something I'm new at so this helps alot. Do you know of any good softwares for echo removal? I've had a hard time finding a good one.

@@MechanicGoneRogue in audacity, Adobe premier pro and various other audio or video editing software, there may be a plugin called "dereverb". In some cases it might be preinstalled but in other cases you might need to download it.

@@MechanicGoneRogue if you would prefer to instead process "live" as you record, there is Krisp, Rnnnoise, and Nvidia RTX voice.

@@MechanicGoneRoguelook up davinci resolve echo removal

If you are recording a talking head video you should probably try improve the original audio instead of using filters, it's always the best approach

Yes I did. I changed it. Thanks for pointing that out. :)

Turning into a bit of a competition eh? Lol

Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed the video :)

Your welcome. The liquid used is just regular salt water.

Good suggestion. Have you tried it? Aren't those materials insulators? Wouldn't something that's a conductor work better? I've tried something similar with MnO2 and that worked. I think I was successful because it's a catalyst for these batteries. What do you think?

@@MechanicGoneRogue When using polymers, in this case PVA you use them to improve ionic conductivity since they help mitigate issues related to the crystalline state of PVA. It’s a common practice in gel electrolytes where they are used as fillers. One other great advantage is their additional mechanical strength in the flexible fragile PVA. Carry out your experiments and see which percentage of those metal oxide fillers work best for your full cell configuration Talking of a conductive material you could add some graphene, quite expensive or some carbon black-just make sure your separator membrane is strong enough to separate the electrically conductive positive and negative gel electrolyte

@@wwabete2009 Thanks for the detailed response. I hadn't realized that was a challenge with PVA electrolytes. I'll certainly keep that in mind as I continue working with them. Cheers!

No direct references. Most of these changes were inspired by viewer comments to my first battery video.

Thank you 😊

Sorry I don't think I can help you with that. I'm not very familiar with how lithium ion batteries are made.

That's sounds pretty powerful. Thanks for the suggestion. Do you know if its rechargeable?

Great suggestion. Seems like you've done quite alot of work on this already. Does this function similar to a car battery? Do you have any sources for additional reading I could check out? Cheers!

Yah that's certianly the goal. Would love to be able to power something more than a few LEDs with them.
