The only homemade large battery I can think of that maybe pos for the average Joe, would be lead acid cell batteries. Back when windmills were on allot of farms here in the midwest, US, there was a gentleman selling them that still worked 40-50 years later. Glass tank, lead plates and sulfiric acid. Real simple. The big trick was the purity of the lead plates, I read. How efficent were they though? I remember my grand parents still having them in an upstairs room in the early 1960's, but acid removed as they were then hocked up to the grid, the windmill running free.

I have been thinking of making a video like that mate

Reason and truth have never been popular as flash and excess, sadly. keep up the good work BTW thanks for confirming my thoughts on his vid, yes i fell for it at first, enough to watch it.

I got a challenging question for you that I think you might appreciate. What do the terms 'anode', 'cathode', 'current', 'collector', 'separator', and 'electrolyte' mean without using the terms 'electron', 'ion', 'atom', 'positive charge', 'negative charge', and all other terms that are not easily observed with the naked eye(or any of our 5 senses). My reasoning for asking this question is that the entire concept of electricity should be far simpler. In other words, aint no one know seen an electron, or ion, so how can those terms be used to explain the difference between an anode and cathode? I highly suspect the entire concept of electricity can be greatly simplified when the concepts of electrons, ions, and atoms are removed and the concepts of the aether are reintroduced. IIRC the US Air Force reproduced the Michelson Morley experiments and found that the experiments actually prove the existence of an aether(not disprove). I saw this in a Nature publication by a guy named Silverman or Silver something sry the name escapes me but the name definitely had the word Silver in it. I'm not saying the electron, ion, atom are lies or a deception, they are very likely real things, but the average human doesn't have access to multi-million dollar 'electron microscopes', its kinda like alchemy vs chemistry. Chemistry is very legitimate, but its too complex of a system for the average human. Alchemy is far simpler(its all distillation and aspects of distillation, thats it haha). Again I'm not saying chemistry, electrons, ions, etc are wrong, or a lie, I'm just saying there are far simpler systems more easily digested by the everyday human. My question is just me being curious how you would describe batteries and electricity without the physics book vernacular terms.

Nice one Robert. Safe to say that fantasy continues to sell better than fact.

Spot on!

So this sparked a thought. What if in an actual battery or supercap you make an anode and cathode out of a flat coiled copper pipe and laid each one on its own same size neodinium magnet. Widely separated from each other. The really strong kind. Perhaps one would have it's magnet northpole up and the other south etc. Would the presence of those magnets in a true battery somehow increase the ion transfer or current transfer to the anode and cathode from the electrolyte? Obviously the magnets would affect charged ion flow in the area. Hmmm.

i don't know... I saw sparks 🤣🤣🤣 Great video

You say separator. How do you separate plates in a battery (lead acid for example) without preventing current flow which is the purpose after all. I know I could probably answer that by watching all your combined battery videos together but I’m limited in how much of the same thing I can watch.

a. Small aluminum cones with an electrical wire running through the center of the cones, cones spaced apart (not touching I'm thinking) but end to end. b. Electromagnetic radiation energy in the atmosphere interacts with the aluminum cones. c. Jostled atoms and molecules in the cone eventually have some electrons try to get away from other electrons of which those electrons gather at the larger end of the cone, of which also creates an area of positive charge at the smaller end of the cone. d. The electron's in the wire are attracted to the positive end of the cone and the positive 'end' in the wire are attracted to the negatively charged end of the cone. e. Basically a 'battery' has been created inside the electrical wire itself, different areas of electrical potential. Basically a 'wire battery' or a 'batteryless battery', however one wanted to call it. f. Numerous cones placed end to end increases the number of 'batteries' in the wire. (In series to increase voltage, in parallel to increase amperage). * Via QED (Quantum Electro Dynamics) whereby electromagnetism interacts with electrons in atoms and molecules, one would have to find the correct 'em' frequency for the correct material being utilized for the cones. The shape of the cones could also come into play. The type and size of the wire as well as the type and thickness of the insulation between the cones and the wire would also be factors.

I agree mate - I actually don't think there is anything wrong with it per se - as you say - as long as you tell folks that is what you are doing

I don't think you could rely on mr YT to be the arbiter of truth, he's doing a rather bad job of it so far with all his little boxes full of useless links to government approved propaganda.

Your channel has grown from your integrity. You've been through a lot these past few years, shared your experiments and you've never given up. I like your expertise and ideas. Thanks for sharing

Not just a Chemist….. But a Battery Chemist…. Just like my son Cory… He has his name on a couple dozen battery material patents…. But he tells me absolutely nothing about his research….. However he did tell me that batteries are getting better/safer/cheaper by the day…. What is your take on that….? Thank you Robert….

it's true mate - Cory is telling you what he can - in the world of research some things are happening that will quite honestly blow your mind and are real - there is a time lag between research bench and product - but Cory is telling you how it is

Would you please tell me how to build a battery? I want to live off grid, but batteries are expensive.

Mabe you could do a similar debunking type of video. Similar title and fake experiment at the start of the video, then a scientific explanation like you did with this one. Then at the end a fix to make it working as best as scientifically possible

I am with Juipi there mate - that sounds like an awesome idea

Debunked when a single cell battery. Shows 12 volts or more when charged. Severe overcharge should not be much more then 2 volts.
