What would have been a good and valid further experiment would have been to flush out the batteries and refill them with the original acid, then tested them to see how much of the batteries' original capacity had been lost, and whether or not the batteries would have once again been able to start the car. You never know, those batteries may have been entirely recoverable, or very nearly. Go on guys, I dare you, repeat this experiment and then restore the original chemistry - See what happens next?!

I'm thinking the acidity isn't concentrated enough. Batteries are 30-40% sulfuric acid, and fresh lemon juice that hasn't been concentrated is likely the 5% acidity ballpark I would guess. Slowly evaporating off some excess liquid and increasing the concentration of the citric acid might work better. I would probably try draining those batteries and refill with the concentrated juice.

I reckon if you wash out the lemon juice in those batteries and fill with the acid again they will work. I washed a battery out before and it worked like a charm. :) What normally happens in a lead acid battery is the lead sulphate falls to the base of the battery and short circuits it, if that lead precipitate is removed it no longer shorts and the battery has a longer life than one would expect.

i wonder if you dump them out, rinse them with distilled water, and then refill with battery acid if they will work again? I would give it a shot since you probably got the acid in one of those filler gizmos when you bought the batteries 😉

The specific gravity of lemon juice is lower than battery acid.

The ridge racer music from the 90s was great 😂

These dudes got more time in their hands than they know what to do with

The juice is the problem, because it's juice, made up with water, sugars, fibre from the lemons, and in there is the citric acid which is what makes the batteries "work", boiling the juice down, filtering out the fibre and somehow separating out the sugars would yeild a useful amount of citric acid, which would very likely get the batteries working, of course, it'd be easier just to get a tub of citric acid, make up a saturated solution of it in distilled water and you're off the the lemon races... :P

I would save those batteries, dump the lemon juice out and try it again when concentrated lemon juice. Think about the concentration of sulfuric acid in the battery. If the lemon juice were concentrated to the same acidity, it might work better. Would be cool to see lemon juice or vinegar at a similar or greater concentration. Maybe even 40% might be more ideal. If you can drain those, you might be able to reuse them. Anyway still a cool experiment. Love you guys.👍

Not acid enough. Try 2 in series to double the voltage then wire each pair in parallel for your current.

@vincentrobinette1507

27 күн бұрын

That would cut the available current from 18 amps, to just 9 amps.

They can't power a starter/solenoid because they were wired wrong. You need around 11.5v-14v to run those things, but still a good amount of amperage. So maybe try it like this: two sets of batteries - each set has 3 batteries wired in parallel. Now wire the two sets in series, about 15v. That probably would have at least turned the starter that was outside the engine.

Should have put the lemon juice through a coffee filter then into the battery. CHUNKS😂

If the batteries are ruined, then you may as well put 2 in series to see if you can bump the voltage up to 12v? With a flat battery in my car, I used 2 flat car batteries in series to get my total voltage to 18v and that cranked my 4.0L straight 6 over many many times? I think it was near 20 cranks before the voltage sagged and it struggled to start? I would also try connect 1 battery to your charger as the charger is distributing the amps over the batteries in parallel, so that will make each battery charge very very slow? Some battery chargers need to see a minimum amount of voltage before the charger will charge at the full amps? Put 1 battery on the charger and then use a fully charged car battery positive to positive (making only 2 batteries in parallel - 1 fully charged the other 1 of your lemon batteries) the fully charged battery should bump the voltage up on the lemon battery and allow the charger to charge at full amps 👍 Very last thing is to try a different battery charger with different modes on it? Select the recondition mode and try changing the battery? I have 2 chargers at home and 1 of them will error out and not charge the battery if it's too flat; the other charger with the various modes on it, will charge the battery that wouldn't charge on the other battery charger? I hope you get to try these tips and one then helps.....I really want to see you start the car with a lemon battery breaking bad style hahaha

The last dry motorcycle battery I bought, it was already pre-charged, before I added the electrolyte, as it said on the packaging.

should have put two x 2 in parallel then put those 2 set in series you would have had the right amount needed with just four, it's the way you connected them

Well that was an interesting experiment. May I suggest you empty out the lemon juice and refill with battery acid. Just a thought😀

A great video idea is comparing hp and fuel efficency with using different octane fuels

Don't even compare a bulb to a starter motor. You need roughly 100x more power for it ;) Now why it doesn't work well: the orange juice contains some citric acid that theoretically should do the job, but also water and other chemicals. It may be too weak (acid concentration too low), then - the other, not very conductive or reactive impurities might cover the electrodes and introduce resistance. The resistance is the worst thing because it means a huge loss of power when a heavy load (as a starter motor) is connected. Well, the lemon juice works as "battery acid", but pretty poorly.

When cells overflow there is electrolytic coupling between them and that can ruin the voltage/amperage

With pure lemon juice the acid level was too high. It may have worked if the PH level was correct before filling the batteries. Battery health or ability to function is directly correlated to the PH of the electrolyte.

Should have run pairs in series and each of the pairs in parallel. They could have easily gotten to over 12V with good current.

The acid is not strong enough. IT may be residual sulfate when lead acid batteries are precharged in the store. You may be better off using aluminum and magnesium sulfate mixed in distilled water in the lead acid battery. You may have to clean out the used batteries of lemon juice and flush with distilled water. And trickle charge them after filling with the aluminum and magnesium sulfates, if not 50% aluminum sulfate and 25% potassium and magnesium sulfate for alum battery. It may take time for them to form. Expect about 8 volts per battery or so. Aluminum sulfate should do okay by itself.

Try to evaporate water to make it more potent so you will have more energy to store

Citric acid wiill dissolve thelead anode and lead dioxide cathode while sulfuric acid will not attack the cathode. So my guess is, that the citric acid dissolves the cathode and that lowers the voltage.

Even if you filter the lemon juice, pure lemon juice is a much weaker acid than 35% concentration sulphuric acid. Real battery electrolyte consists of 35% sulphuric acid & 65% distilled water. But then I guess everyone knows that. If i had to try lemon juice, I'd filter it a few times to get it as clear as possible. Then concentrate it till you get the correct specific gravity (1260 gravity measured with hydrometer) It may still not work but we'd like to see the results. Very entertaining channel though and great voiceover.

Make 20 sets of these connect in series/ parallel and see if it will start a car

I’m surprised you didn’t hook them up in series to boost the voltage

Connecting the batteries in parallel increases capacity, connecting them in series increases voltage.

I think you should have left them on charge much longer to give them a chance to get fully charged. 6 batteries even with acid would take a long time to charge with that small charger.

OK so after talking to ChatGPT it seems that "During discharge (when current is drawn), sulfuric acid dissociates into ions, facilitating the flow of electrons and generating electrical energy." and that lemon juice, while acidic, is not reactive enough to provide enough ions. This implies it would cause a bottleneck for the electrons, which makes sense since you are seeing voltage and SOME current flow, but not as much as you would get from the more reactive sulfuric acid for the same volume of liquid. SOLUTION: A lot more batteries. You can also do a "bank" of a few batteries in series to increase the voltage, and then combine the banks in parallel to divide the current draw between them

@realflow100

Actually you can get a lot closer to sulfuric acid performance by making a saturated solution of sodium sulfate and aluminum sulfate for the electrolyte. It makes 2 volts per cell and has decent capacity and performance. and can provide power for at least some time. You can just use one car battery instead of a bank of small ones. it works ive tried it.

Wouldnt the liquid jumping over to the other cell be causing a short?. Be why your getting spuracted voltage drops. The expanshion of liquids means theres less space in the meaning there is to much acid.

I like how they try even if it doesn't work, хороший характер 😊

I thought you were going to try this on a car battery and test drive it.

I believe from memory "aka I can’t be bothered googling it" the chemical reaction that takes place in a lead acid accumulator as it was known is very specific with the chemical reaction involving particular compounds the reaction I believe is from lead and lead oxide then the acid actually binds with the plates on discharge to be come lead sulphate and the charge cycle reverses the process drives the lead out of the plates to restore the original state hence this reaction doesn’t work in the absence of sulphuric acid this being a key part of the reaction and isn’t necessarily replaceable with a different acid especially one so different as to if a different acid works it’s remotely possible I suppose but I doubt it.
