the things that I do differently
So this idea of mine came out so suddenly.. But its a way to turn saltwater into distilled water! without maintenance 😀 .. its funny how I came up with the idea.. Messing around with magnifying glass and doing the water battery jar project made me think think about it I suppose hehe. But basicly its powered by the sun to produce steam threw a magnifying glass… 😀 here’s a diagram I made in paint(Oh Really Paint? More like Gimp.. Shhh).
So on Thursday I decided to develop a Salt water battery because well… I thought it would be cool and plus I have all the things for it… However, it was a messy project apparently.. I had to revise 4 times before deciding that its the maximum power it can generate. Amazingly it works well. It has been running for 1 day now on a Joule thief circuit and It’s using paper towels to hold Saltwater.
How is this made you may ask? It’s quiet simple I used a Paper towel, Copper Wire, Aluminum Foil. and I made the Foil into a rod and wrapped Paper Towel around the foil rod and Wound the copper wire around the paper towel to hold it in place with the rod inside. Then soaked the entire battery into salt water. Then your Foil rod becomes negative voltage and Copper becomes Positive Voltage. There’s Voltage!! 😀
Question remains is what will happen when the water dries up… So far the results is that the Copper Wires are turning turning dark brown. It apparently reached peak voltage of 1.55 Volts. It continues to produce the same voltage range as it dries up. I’m not expecting it to do anything epic or anything its just a little experimentation on saltwater battery…
Hopefully I can make a saltwater jar battery.
A new project will be listed in Project about this with Photo/Diagrams/Plans.
