Gordon West (WB6NOA) and Julian Frost (N3JF) visited Quantum Sphere in Santa Ana, California to learn about the new, high-capacity, single-use Zinc-Air batteries that the company has designed and is building.
So my understanding is This is one shots no recharge. One its open and exposed to air it starts producing power at that point its use it or loose it once the reactions is running there is no shutting it down ? And core must be replaced after it is expired. Is this correct ? How long is it good for once exposed to air ? How long before?
What happens when the zinc has completely oxidized? how long will this keep recharging itself before its done? lead acid can last for years while zinc is extremely corrosive
