- 👽✨This simple Salt Water Battery is Rechargeable: Copper Wire + Aluminium Foil + Salt
The battery has 4 cells connected in series and generates a voltage of 2 v when fully discharged, and after charging the battery voltage rises up to 5.2 v and it is able to provide a current of 830 ma despite it's small size.
Copper Ion battery or Cu-ion battery is the name i'm assigning to this cell type because copper is the active element that stores the charges and releases them during charge and discharge.
It is made all from recycled items from trash can, like chocolate bar foil for Negative electrode, or pieces of scrap wire for Positive electrode and the electrolyte is Salt Water.
I might be able to use this rechargeable salt water battery as my robots power source! - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
👽Thanks for watching!
I like to make stuff from complete zero, like using copper ore to make copper then wire and same for iron then build a electric generator from them. but that needs more resources that i don't have yet..🧵
Also i wanna build the world largest robot factory with all my own mines that i extract and store elements in pure form for manufacturing purposes.🤖
That'll make my dream science come true. I always loved surviving apocalypse with science.
U R brilliant, man. Garbage to battery, more people should try that, save a lot of stuff and turn into useful items.
keep innovating!
next up: liquid salt reactor
Looks much better than the modern batteries with all kinds of dangerous chemicals in them. This battery is probably much easier to recycle. By the way, is it possible to make an induction coil, powered by AC electricity from the wall, that would be so big and powerful, that it could melt metals and make metal alloys?
To use 60 Hz u need an air core coil with high enough inductance to limit the current to around 10 A at 220 v or 20 A at 110 v. u will need a lot of thick wire.. like too much.
it can't swell
can we use joel thief to boost the voltage?
Very cool!
Hello! Can you please provide all the materials you have used? I am very interested.
How much energy does this battery stored?
3 Rapid question: 1- why did you put the paper around the copper wire? In theory couldn't we directly fill the pipe pieces with salt water, close them on the top with a simple cap and let the copper wire exit through a hole on it? 2 - what's the relationship with the copper wire diameter? larger = more power? or viceversa (smaller = power)?
bigger electrode surface area = more current
paper prevents the chemical from contacting the other electrode
@@aufoslabthank you very much for your answer. As chemical you intend the blue glue-like think that you used to stick together the tube pieces?
molten plastic bottle cap
should have spread out the wire strands then wrapped them , might have been able to take more current then
@@christopherstaples6758 Wouldn't make much difference, as the surface area likely wouldn't change much. These batteries are notorious for having low voltage and little capacity, with some of the best ones requiring 3x the weight minimum to be comparable to some AGM car batteries... Curious though how they managed a steady 5 volts, as I never was able to get more than 0.6 per cell at most. Figure I am doing something wrong, or maybe it's my assembly method increasing the resistance more than theirs, but still.
How long it last
Very nice experiment. Is the salt table salt? If yes, when battery is recharged, any brown gas or brown liquid formed as NaCl liquid electrolysis?.
I am studying how to scale this kind of battery to use for home solar storage. Is this possible?
i haven't really tested it's charge cycle, only one charge cycle was performed u most wait until i make another video on it. i call it Cu-ion battery.
@@aufoslab Did you use table salt for that testing?
yes, but the hard part is the paper diagram, it should have no holes and be only paper without plastic or wax coating. the solution of cathode and anode should not mix and be separate. if they get mixed the charges discharge by chemical reaction instead of electro-chemical.
Wow. Just wow.
At one time charge,what is discharge time duration?
i don't remember
Those aluminum foils will be eaten from that salt over time.
That's nice keep going
Good work my friend. If it works for me
i haven't tested to see how many times it can be recharged.
