Ibpointless2 Crystal Cells

[triffid]

In Texas I worked for a giant company that made electronics smaller and smaller.So 2000 cells could in theory fit on a chip.Not today by you or I but in the future. By people or corporations with big money.triffid

For the time being I have decided not to use tin can lids in my first panel.First I still need about 15 lids. Its hard for me to eat that much Libbys crushed pineapple by myself in a short time.But I have liked to eat eggs and have three or four empty egg (30 count) on hand cartons or flats as they call them.One foot by one foot and two inches high.They are pretty compact So tuesday I will make a panel consisting of 30 cells using copper wire and magnesium metal strip.I will do each cell one at a time.Then 48 hours later work on connecting the cells together.I expect voltages to settle down to about 20 volts as it drys more and more.triffid

My egg carton 30 cell panel is now drying.Once I had all the metal wires and strips cut and all the materials on hand within arms reach.Putting it together was not so bad.I want to add more glue to each cell at this point.But I am fighting that urge(maybe on the next panel).In 48 hours from now I will pick it up again,test each cell put them in series If good.I used copper wires and magnesium strips.These are the cells I had to stir.Each cell acted like a funnel.The glue and dry stuff went into each cell very nicely.Theres no waste in making this panel.I had to pay attention to detail.Make sure each cell had electrodes in it and facing the right direction.I was out all day yesterday getting last minute supplies for this project.At Home depot I foiund aluminum wire(50 feet on a roll). Bought more elmers glue-all.triffid

This guy is really creative when it comes to experimenting.Hes melting his alum and epson salts in a large spoon over a candle.And he has a homemade vacuum chamber.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhIz-DbdDqk&feature=relmfu


same guy using a candle to melt his stuff.Very stable readings too Voltages not jumping all over the place.[size=78%]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESzzjftzGfg&feature=relmfu[/size]




Same guy he makes his own copper sulfate.  [size=78%]http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&feature=endscreen&v=egCfD2B5VRw[/size]


I like this guy,Hes more backwoods chemistry than I am.I could learn a lot from him.triffid
