The Edison battery does not have the kind of energy density and charging/discharging characteristics needed for this application. The orginal Edison battery was very slow to charge and could not supply much current. Researchers at Stanford have produced a faster charge/discharge version but it still does not have the energy density or ability to hold its charge for a long time without decay. I still like a battery that I'll never have to replace. I had one for many years, bought it off a Railroad guy. The RR had discarded it for it's age, and that battery outlasted several vehicles and was always dependable. Started even on the coldest days, well below zero, and would crank forever. Had her for about 15 years. Sold it with my 66 Ford and have regretted it ever since. Building an Electric at the moment, and she will be Edison powered, and I will be building the batteries myself, considering the insane prices they want for them. Do you have a link to that Stanford project? Would love to read it. Leigh2154, napped the night away out behind the barn, even brought night film, you never showed? Ah, just all talk... Wait a minute Bxy!!! ...Which barn???....Don't tell me you went to the red barn at the bottom of the hill, you know I always go to the white barn at the top of the hill...You know, the one with the "Black Horse & The Cherry Tree".... http://youtu.be/HYEU91d8ngc Wait I just had a great idea for a use for a battery that you never need to replace!! |

Isn't that a restaurant? Mean I've got to take you out first. And a White Barn, you mean up there where all those fancy houses are, I have to buy you a house too? I went to the pink barn, thought that was a girls barn. And all I wanted was some pictures to remember you by, honest, they didn't even have to be good, bad would have even been better. Guess I gotta just curl back up in my Lamborghini and go back to sleep. Homelessness is just so much easier... you got me so corn fused. Thanks s1owhand. |
