Crystal Power CeLL by John Hutchison

G'day all,

@AbbaRue: I made a number of button cells using beer bottle caps as one electrode and 5 cent pieces for the other, they fit quite nicely. I think I managed to make 15 before I passed out  .

Just a quick update.  Some time back I made a couple of cells using just sand and cold rochelle salt solution. No heat was used and crystalization took place at room temp and about a week . I didn't expect it to do anything but I've just tested it and it's sitting at 0.293V. Admittedly this is without load. I'll give it a stress test after work.  The outer electrode was made using a cigar tube. Bought that at the same time as the beer. 

Has anyone else made a cold RS cell ? I would like to hear about your results.

All the best  Ian

@Koen1
Did you use silica gel in your cells?
If you did, what results did you get?
I bought some really cheap, used for cat litter box.
