Working Air Battery

Hi Bizzy regarding the wire you wrapped it around the magnesium rod? You should do a Joule thief or stingo circuit to one of these and test if it charges a 12v battery.
Thanks for the info.

Hi Guruji
Actually the wire is incerted into the carbon parallel to the magnesium rod. The reason for this test was just to compare a wire versus copper tubing for electricity production. Since I didn't use a JT for the tubing I didn't use one for the wire either.
Do you have a schematic for the stingo circuit?
Thanks

Hi bizzy
I must have missed the MA results..or I am a real dumbass (many might agree with that)
I intend to build some up using the copper tube .
Please post the MA results (your volts are great)
