   Sorry to hear that I was right.  I would hope that when all of the glue dries up totally, you'll get some voltage back. Maybe separate the cells that show no voltage and just work with the ones that do, for now.  Try to use three of your best cells to see if you can light an led.  Check their current output levels also. 
  You won't get anywhere by putting the project on the back burner...   Even if it is not as easy as it seamed.

I never could get an led to light on a single cells. It always took 4+ cells to light an led but I only used aluminum and graphite. With 5 being my personal best. Unfortunately water is the key in these cells, even when you think it is not. Water is in everything since it is the ultimate solvent.


Epsom salts seems to be the best water though. This is because it is crystalline water(very organized with minimum oxygen) <--- This is key. Yes other crystals have differing amounts of water in them and yes they vary on the crystallization(organization) of the water but all crystals use water to some degree. It is how crystals refract light and it is how they desiccate things (salts). Salts are merely water crystals that the water has dried up from. All crystals are formed in water. What happens to them afterwards and what their components are dictates their properties. Water is also a very good medium to store natural energy. This energy was termed Radiant energy for lack of a better word and only describes the action of the energy, not it's true name.


Tesla was dealing with the true energy and only one extreme of the scale. It is the motivator of all currents and the source of all life. We are merely capacitors for water and it is the reason we live. When that comes out of balance we shuck our cocoon we call our bodies and continue to exist on a different reality.
