Welcome to my adventure building a Zinc-Iodine battery
All experiments carried out from #100 are now shared publicly (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/67hdgpm5lijt5s1/AACS0gjDSYHZny_tLSfXXmfza?dl=0). The experiment_summary excel file contains a summary of all important variables in the experiments...
Hi Guys,
My name is Daniel, I am a chemist with a passion for battery technology and currently trying to build a highly efficient Zinc-Bromine battery at home using readily available materials. I have a blog where you can follow my progress (https://chemisting.com/). I am using a DIY USB...
I have decided to start doing some experiments to create a Mn/Fe flow battery. I will post links to blog posts on this thread as I write them.

Questions are welcome.
After looking at Zn-halide chemistries and running into big road blocks with both Zn-I and Zn-Br batteries, I have decided to explore the world of Zn-MnO2 batteries. Especially, mildly acidic rechargeable Zn-MnO2 chemistries. These batteries use very earth abundant elements and very low cost...
After all the adventures trying to build the Mn-Fe flow battery, I have now shifted to a Zn-I flow battery. Since I now have a full setup to actually test flow batteries, I have arrived at this chemistry after testing several other alternatives. You can see some of my experimental results on my...
