I am thinking of having a go at making my own battery...actually proper name is an "accumulater" but the same sort of thing you have in your car.
So I ask has anyone here made their own battery or accumulator.
My plan is lots of lead flashing seperated by fibre glass with epsom salt in solution for the electrolyte.
I believe storage is worked out by surface area of the lead so I wonder does any one know how to work out potential storage.
I notice Bunnings have lead flashing in 3 mtr x 30 cm and I am thinking of using that much for just on 2.3 volt cell...so 1.5mtr x30cm plate area for each of positive and negative...and make 6 of them...but I would lke to know if it will work and storage potential.
