1424 How To Make A Giant Battery- Fabricated In 5 Minutes - A Critical Review 

Actually what is the difference between others and your videos are, knowledge. People who doesn't have knowledge about is believing but your audience are knowledgeable and wanting to get knowledge more from you. Your experience and knowledge is really awesome. Thanks with regards

I said the same, no anode or cathode, no dissimilar metal. And the special magnet. I had to look further which led me to your video. Thank you for confirming my exact thoughts.

I'll choose your 6 minutes and 48 seconds over his 7 minutes and 17 seconds, thank you, Robert, and consider the time well spent.

Thanks for this video. As soon as I saw that other video thought what would Rob make of this.

Good advice

Hi Robert Fron the centeral U.S. Love your videos and how well you explain everything as well as your honesty

The majority of all your views and likes resides in heaven. How did u not know? Thanks for all that you do. I have learned so much from your channel. ❤

Thank you for being honest and transparent

(sorry for my basic english) I met this channel of yours, Mr. Robert, thanks to that video of that mega-battery with that kind of copper spiral. I said to myself: "What the hell is that mega-accumulator? It can't be true; I have to study what I can't understand". Without that video, I wouldn't be here now. Thanks for this wonderful channel, Mr Robert. :)

A great video. It's funny in one sense and criminal in another sense that people make those fake battery videos. Well done Sir for raising awareness of science.

I saw like the first minute of that video and was done when he went from lighting the lamp to welding with it! Went elsewhere while howling with laughter. As an electronics technician I have to marvel at the attempts to circumvent the laws of physics and some are indeed hilarious.

Laser adaptation... Manchester dynamo something...bullet proof something...air raid siren... genuin souls tinkering and debunking b.s. I love this channel.

Love your videos! You make difficult concepts easy to understand and make it look very accessible, which is a rare gift. Was wondering if you could do a video on thermocouples?

"Telling the truth can be dangerous business, Honest and popular don't go hand in hand, If you admit you can play the accordion, No one will hire you in a rock 'n roll band." -Rogers and Clarke

Well said and a very balanced polite way of putting it too Robert 😇

I like how you stay honest in making things work and restrain from quick grabs. By now all your videos were educational which suit my taste a lot more

Well said, Robert. Put quite simply, there are scammers everywhere - don't fall for it; question everything.

well done M8 some one has to look out for us ...watched that video awhile ago and well felt the same way as you

one of the only channels dedicated to scientific method!!

You truly embody the scientific method in your humility and philosophy. This is why I'm a committed subscriber :)

Thank you for sharing your expertise. I wondered about the "magic" but did not understand enough to be convinced it was click bait. I thank you for all that you explore. I can now begin to replicate your tutorials I have been enjoying for years.

"Just a guy mucking around with tools in his shed" Love it.

it was my frustration at been fooled by one of those "FREE POWER" videos that got my to actually learn electronics properly. AND im ot afraid to admit that i made one of those light bulbs with a coil of copper a magnet and thought it was going to work. (not my best moment) but it got into this wonderful world. Which i love so bloody much.

Hi thank you for info . You are a gem we need more like you to teach wot is real & not real .Cheers Greg.

I didn’t watch the video originally, I made a comment about it being a fuel cell. I just watched it and it was just like you said a complete waste of time. I throughly enjoy your videos on both channels, you are an inspiration. Thank you!

I’m also subscribed to several pilot channels. Latest hot topic is Trevor Jacob jumping out of a plane. He forgot the pilot and larger aviation society are all into safety and correct procedures. He jumped out of his plane without ever worrying to try and restart the engine. Let this be a warning to all people trying to trick people on RU-vid and other channels: it’s our common right to discuss whether you’re genuine or not…

Thank you for the explanation on this battery video, I knew it was fake, but not why, thanks for the explanation.

Spot on mate. Seen the free energy water pump? The guy goes to farms and sets up old barrels to suck water from rivers and wells, seems to work, if airtight, I'm setting one up now, will keep you posted, I'f it works will add a water wheel.

While I have certainly learned a lot from Rob over the years, it was all stuff I would eventually get-to if I really need or want. What I have learned that CAN'T simply be researched with enough dedication though, is patience and and kindness in dealing with these kind of clowns or, I ashamed to admit, also the people who seem to support them without good reason but may actually just be ill equipped to make better judgement.

I'm intrigued by the list on the white board!

Nice one Robert. Safe to say that fantasy continues to sell better than fact.

Yes, Rob and viewers, integrity and moral fibre are sadly lacking in the world.

Dont give up stay strong i watch almost all of your videos because i know they are actually gonna work

It might not be a battery. It does have to be charged though. The magnet connector method ive seen somewhere before in an old patent. What would interesting is to see if it recharges itself.

I like channels like yours where you're not 'above' explaining the processes that go into why your work has merit and will actually perform. I miss hearing about the hemp battery and am still wondering if it has gotten into production yet, because I find charge collectors and batteries are the backbone of ANY energy system. Even if you can take sweat and bubble gum and turn a light on with it what good is it if you can't store the power when you are not using it 🤷.

I hear you Robert. Those type of people chose to be a failure of science for a few inconsequential clicks. Stay successful my man. So " just a few thousand" of us can learn and put your teachings to real life,.

You're a good dude 👍 I'll take the honesty and moral research over the b.s., thanks ✌️

Your a good honest man Rob. One thing I hate about RU-vid is the deceitful self promoters that are only in it for the views. Great video mate.

So very well said sir! I potter in my shed, with scant results but fair in proportion to applied effort and intelligence! I console myself by considering how you, with your resources and knowledge, and outfits like Tesla who have been applying thousands, millions of manhours and dollars in getting their new 4680 cells from concept to production reality take a long time to find a decent solution within the available resources, constraints and physical realities. Keep up the great work!

a. Small aluminum cones with an electrical wire running through the center of the cones, cones spaced apart (not touching I'm thinking) but end to end. b. Electromagnetic radiation energy in the atmosphere interacts with the aluminum cones. c. Jostled atoms and molecules in the cone eventually have some electrons try to get away from other electrons of which those electrons gather at the larger end of the cone, of which also creates an area of positive charge at the smaller end of the cone. d. The electron's in the wire are attracted to the positive end of the cone and the positive 'end' in the wire are attracted to the negatively charged end of the cone. e. Basically a 'battery' has been created inside the electrical wire itself, different areas of electrical potential. Basically a 'wire battery' or a 'batteryless battery', however one wanted to call it. f. Numerous cones placed end to end increases the number of 'batteries' in the wire. (In series to increase voltage, in parallel to increase amperage). * Via QED (Quantum Electro Dynamics) whereby electromagnetism interacts with electrons in atoms and molecules, one would have to find the correct 'em' frequency for the correct material being utilized for the cones. The shape of the cones could also come into play. The type and size of the wire as well as the type and thickness of the insulation between the cones and the wire would also be factors.

Well said.. clowns have always attracted attention by behaving foolishly' The wise attract the inquiring minds of the few Thank you for sharing your wisdom

The amount of 'free energy' devices that are nothing more than a short circuit coming of India is astounding. Who knew that you could get free energy just by touching positive and negative together! How did we miss this?!?!?

Reason and truth have never been popular as flash and excess, sadly. keep up the good work BTW thanks for confirming my thoughts on his vid, yes i fell for it at first, enough to watch it.

Popular is usually stupid. Be unpopular.

I have a love for Robs magic because it's real and not BS for likes. I'm rubbish at making videos but I could make a convincing one if I didn't have morals

Spot on!

You're a good man Robert (or you're doing a bloody good impression of one!)

Thanks ! Truly appreciate your sharing. AWESOME !

Thanks for sharing Rob! You haven't done too much on hydrogen PEM fuel cells and would LOVE you to do a series on hydrogen fuel cells. Proton exchange membranes and catalysts etc is extremely fascinating. I have been experimenting on these for a long time but just can't seem to get it right..perhaps you can? Yes that's a challenge :-D

As always, Thanks!

The only homemade large battery I can think of that maybe pos for the average Joe, would be lead acid cell batteries. Back when windmills were on allot of farms here in the midwest, US, there was a gentleman selling them that still worked 40-50 years later. Glass tank, lead plates and sulfiric acid. Real simple. The big trick was the purity of the lead plates, I read. How efficent were they though? I remember my grand parents still having them in an upstairs room in the early 1960's, but acid removed as they were then hocked up to the grid, the windmill running free.

The bulk of the internet population is entertained by cat videos. One can only hope for a slightly higher caliber of audience to pool at channels like yours, but as the ratio goes, we're a dying breed. As another Murray (a Mac, but a brother of the family) once said, "These things are designed by geniuses to be operated by idiots." Truer words...

Thanks Robert, yes some are ethically challenged

Thank you 🙏🏼

Hi Robert, what acts as the separator in an earth battery please? Thanks

i don't know... I saw sparks 🤣🤣🤣 Great video

7 minutes and 17 seconds of pure hilarious laughter, Thank you. Ps India needs more RU-vid income. I am waiting for the Stirling Engine made from the refrigeration compressor, but thanks for the laugh.

I suggest you make such a video or once in a while. Just for the bang and the fun of watching it.

It's quite simple actually, it's a RU-vid channel has ads on its videos that means it is a monetized channel, pot-kettle 😎

Now, if for some odd reason, this bizarre contraption works, then there's a lot of questions that come up. Why does it work/How does it work? It's not supposed to work. So if it does, something is going on that we don't understand. I agree that someone should replicate it. If it works, let a few more people say so. If enough people say "it's actually working" then we have an interesting puzzle to get cracking on But right now it just sounds like an expensive piece of nonsense.

Watching a chap messing about in a shed is far more interesting than "magic"

So this sparked a thought. What if in an actual battery or supercap you make an anode and cathode out of a flat coiled copper pipe and laid each one on its own same size neodinium magnet. Widely separated from each other. The really strong kind. Perhaps one would have it's magnet northpole up and the other south etc. Would the presence of those magnets in a true battery somehow increase the ion transfer or current transfer to the anode and cathode from the electrolyte? Obviously the magnets would affect charged ion flow in the area. Hmmm.

Your channel has grown from your integrity. You've been through a lot these past few years, shared your experiments and you've never given up. I like your expertise and ideas. Thanks for sharing

A Battery Must Contain 5 things... - Anode - Cathode - Current Collector - Separator -Electrolyte Thanks ❤❤❤ 100.

So many charlatans out there, they are comical at best. Thanks for keeping it realistic with all of your content. 🙂👍

It's true that magical thinking has always seemed more popular (dangerously so) for millennia but it seems, increasingly, as if the Renaissance never happened for large sections of the population.

A living cell has five components and the cell will not live if you leave out anyone component all five of these components magically popped up and came together to form the first cell thus we have evolution

I got a challenging question for you that I think you might appreciate. What do the terms 'anode', 'cathode', 'current', 'collector', 'separator', and 'electrolyte' mean without using the terms 'electron', 'ion', 'atom', 'positive charge', 'negative charge', and all other terms that are not easily observed with the naked eye(or any of our 5 senses). My reasoning for asking this question is that the entire concept of electricity should be far simpler. In other words, aint no one know seen an electron, or ion, so how can those terms be used to explain the difference between an anode and cathode? I highly suspect the entire concept of electricity can be greatly simplified when the concepts of electrons, ions, and atoms are removed and the concepts of the aether are reintroduced. IIRC the US Air Force reproduced the Michelson Morley experiments and found that the experiments actually prove the existence of an aether(not disprove). I saw this in a Nature publication by a guy named Silverman or Silver something sry the name escapes me but the name definitely had the word Silver in it. I'm not saying the electron, ion, atom are lies or a deception, they are very likely real things, but the average human doesn't have access to multi-million dollar 'electron microscopes', its kinda like alchemy vs chemistry. Chemistry is very legitimate, but its too complex of a system for the average human. Alchemy is far simpler(its all distillation and aspects of distillation, thats it haha). Again I'm not saying chemistry, electrons, ions, etc are wrong, or a lie, I'm just saying there are far simpler systems more easily digested by the everyday human. My question is just me being curious how you would describe batteries and electricity without the physics book vernacular terms.

Thanks

I would love a RU-vid that rewards hard work and honesty and diminishes the fake, trivial, cheap and dishonest, but that would mean some sort of peer review weighting structure and intelligent filtering. For example, 1 view would represent 100 views for the first, whilst 100 views represent just 1 view for the other. Of course, YT is only really driven by popularist advertising - dream on Beamer :)

The "missinformation" videos might be the best thing to happen to youtube. Right now the video channel owner can hide a comment without the viewer knowing and the dislike count is not show, making it the perfect platform to have only "positive" feedback on any video. So, if people start to notice the lack of tools to report a video, or at least inform others about it, they will go to other platforms. Might be a good thing!

I would like your comment would an ultra capacitor or even capacitor that can be charged to say 100v that supplies a 12v circuit using perhaps a pulse width modulated circuit have similar energy to lithium ion batteries. What would be the negatives or limitations.

Using your 5 elements of a battery can you help is understand solid state batteries. Are they real? What would be the separator? Can we play with some version of it, Experimentlly? Thanks for what you do for us tinkerers.

So now I wonder if there would be a way to actually turn that into a battery or supercapacitor. Maybe put one copper pipe inside a membrane bag and in the drum and fill it half up the drum with carbon then seal it and put the other pipe in and fill it the rest of the way with carbon and add some salty water. Maybe have a small solar cell continue to charge it and it might be a battery that would run a small current discharge device for a thousand years. Lol.

You say separator. How do you separate plates in a battery (lead acid for example) without preventing current flow which is the purpose after all. I know I could probably answer that by watching all your combined battery videos together but I’m limited in how much of the same thing I can watch.

Challenge: build an engine from readily available hardware store parts without any alteration to the parts that could be disassembled to their original status. Great project for kids and enthusiasts and parts can be returned or exchanged if you want to go another route. Over Achiever Challenge: Convert output to electricity with the same rules.

Debunked when a single cell battery. Shows 12 volts or more when charged. Severe overcharge should not be much more then 2 volts.

there was 6:48 of my life well spent.

Lemon batteries, potato batteries, those have all 5? What's the current collector? How about voltaic pile?

I've considered a 55gal battery, but built properly. Could this be used as a solar battery bank? If one could be built from accessible,inexpensive materials, even if not ideal, it could prove worthwhile for the poor layman.

This is exactly what I can respect appreciate and quite honest admire your hard work and dedication to what i feel has got to be your passion or calling if i may say so you are a true inspiration and role model need a few more people like you and a few less tljust tryin to sale them make believe fairy tales

Being a fan of your videos, because they are so direct and simple, do you offer a compilation of your videos on DVD/Thumb Drive/Disk Drive? Also, do you have any licensing on your videos, I.E. can I share them offline with others? How could we set this up. There is this humanitarian need for very simple power generation. I am hoping to put together a "starting with "almost" nothing" project for the group to share via laptops in 3rd world countries.

Any ideas on how to make a giant battery one that stores charge for a time would be nice if we could have a five gallon bucket tobe the size of the battery

Science = 1% inspiration 98% perspiration 1% success. Thats why we do it. its not for the lol's

great truthfull video i like it

no commercial battery yet?

Hi Murray, I think the quality of your viewers is much higher lol

Better to only have 2 views, than have any based upon a "fabrication"(double entendre not intended).

the internet has become a moral vacuum, you are one of the rare islands where we find an oasis of truth. thank you.

2:38 this is when it clicked that I just came from that video your talking about. Saw it quite a while ago and am shocked it is still up. Thought it might be a different one as I have recently been looking for videos of large salt water batteries... for entertainment purposes of course...... Love the videos. I'm still enjoying them (^-^) Any chance you have uploaded a salt water battery video or know where I might find a ratio chart?

Not just a Chemist….. But a Battery Chemist…. Just like my son Cory… He has his name on a couple dozen battery material patents…. But he tells me absolutely nothing about his research….. However he did tell me that batteries are getting better/safer/cheaper by the day…. What is your take on that….? Thank you Robert….

I hate to disagree with you Robert, but.... you are not ‘lacking in self importance’ ,....you are simply not what we used to call ‘a CROOK!!’ ... peddling lies for clicks and a big income totally devoid of integrity and deliberately misleading decent seekers after knowledge and wisdom. Please keep it up and expose as many charlatans as possible. Thank you so much.

RU-vid has been dead for so long and the kind of vids you mention are the result of it. It's getting harder to find true stuff now

RU-vid sensors many people and their ideas I wish they would just place a header over each video saying weather or not it is Fiction Fantasy Just a thought Documentary Or maybe historical This would be so helpful But they probably won't because they are an add revenue funded company What I'm saying is that the more videos you watch the more money they make Thank you for the very educational experience brother and all the great info you have shared with us It's okay to make up things that you think people would like to watch so long as you are honest about it God bless you and your's Have a great day Just saying

Hi rob, whats the difference between a voltaic pile and a battery? As far as I can see it is a battery, but doesn't need any external charging so to speak, self charging continuous battery its described as. Why can't all batteries charge themselves through the electricity thats floating about in the air is what am asking? Thanks

Love you mate.

I am confused. It seems like a battery should only need 3 things. If I put an anode and a cathode in an electrolyte I get voltage and amps but there is no separator. Is this not a battery? Like the lemon battery.

not related but how do you activate carbon? I heard that you've to pass hot steam on it

First I was thinking that he get 12 volts out🤦‍♂️🤣 But now I see that he get 48 volts per cell measured by voltmeter 🤣 (4 lead acid batteries) 😂🤣 He also flex his golden watch and a bracelet with which you are able to tow a car,... so you need to trust him

There are many crazy videos for stuff that can't work but which still seem to receive many up votes . Magnets here and there are are typical feature . Perpetual motion , free WiFi..........
