Zinc Ion High Energy Home Made Battery - How I Made It..

Ionic Battery Maker · Jul 10, 2023

Here is the video for my 1.1 amp hour zinc ion battery. The video is a quick and easy DIY tutorial on how to make a fully scalable zinc ion battery at home for dirt cheap! Enjoy!

Just going to bump this. I am trying to help democratize home battery making. My rechargeable carbon batteries get over 100 watt hours per Kg, at a cost of only $70 per kilowatt hour! So give this video a watch if you are at all interested!

How large can you make it? 1Ah wouldn't be too useful for most people here.

The design in this video is specifically made to scale. I don't think there really is any limit to how large you can make it. For fun I might just make a 50-100 amp hour single cell for the next video. Should take less than an hour to construct since the build is so simple. Of course 6-7 cells are needed for a 12v battery. They are just under 2 volts each.

I think you should make a 1000Ah, 48V battery so we can use it for solar.

Great to hear from Will Prowse himself. (I watch your channel regularly). 1000ah would take a long time to test haha. I would need a bigger power supply since mine maxes out at 5 amps. I have some more testing to do before I go really large scale though. Shouldn't be too difficult though, but zinc dendrites will likely become more of an issue with such long charge time and current, so more spacing may be required!

I'd be impressed if you do that.

I actually might just do that! I pretty much have the resources to do it now. I'm not sure anything like this has ever been done in a diy home setup, so it could be interesting!
