​@@arbremagique6253ah, stop being such a downer. It's safe enough for a stop-gap. It was built all with closed cells, the layout of the cells were quite thought out and there seemed to be no great risk of the terminals shorting out. I wouldn't call it safer than a regular lead-acid battery, but it's fine. I am a bit sceptical about it being able to handle the alternators' charging current, though...

That was one lucky strike! But seriously, so many things had to right for that to happen that it will be most likely the last time we will see this happen. Lightning has to burn out immobilizer (and only that so it doesn't just shut down after rotating the starter), power the starter and rotate it enough so the engine starts. Not an easy feat when you get one millisecond jolt of millions of volts and amps!

@choppergirl
@choppergirl 6 ай бұрын
He made it with 27000 or 18650 Lipo / Liion cells, among other things, so it probably worked much better than a Lead Acid battery. However (!), the car alternator is not designed to charge those... probably over charged them, and ruined them. Lipo and Liion cells prefer to sit at 50% of their max storage voltage, not 100% (like a Lead Acid battery). Also, it was probably an explosion hazzard as again, the Alternator probably did not stop charging them when it needed to.
@BlondieSL
@BlondieSL 6 ай бұрын
@@choppergirl Yes... the alternator can charge a lithium bank... BUT.. the battery bank MUST have the proper charge controller built in. When you buy a proper replacement battery that is Lithium and it has the form factor of the usual car battery, it has the controller built in. Nothing has to be done to the alternator. The controller (a good one) would take care of the charging current, charging time and max voltage for the cells being used. What this guy had was horrible. He's lucky that the thing didn't burst into flames like some EVs do. And those other cells (or super caps) were NOT added correctly to the system. And the plastic box.. .OMG. If he wanted to do this right, he should have taken his old, original battery, get it drained properly, cut the top off below the rim, remove all the cells inside... super clean and then use that to build his bank.... but build it properly. Then, reattach the top with a rim retainer piece.

@@BlondieSL Well, hydrochloric acid is kind of dangerous so I can't suggest gutting a used battery just to reuse the outer plastic casing. To have a same form factor battery case he could of bought a battery without the acid installed yet, but then, might as well run with that instead. To disassemble it would be messing with lead. Really, any plastic case would do of the right shape off a Walmart storage container aisle. I think he was in a pinch and had already invested in Lipos, knew they had a higher density, and tried to rig up something expedient and experimental in a pencil case box. Some check car jump start units use these lipos with a contained charge controller which is probably where he got the idea. Agreed about the charge controller. Really, a lot of people do a lot more dangerous things than having them under a car hood... with Lipos and Liions... like wearing them on their head in VR units, or in their pocket in smart phones.

@@Cheepchipsable Those pink ones are in fact 18650 lithium cells. Very common and yes, a lot of power tools use them. Which is great because, what a lot of people don't realize, is that when the battery on your power tools starts to not charge or charge quickly and only last a few minutes, it's usually a cell or two that are done for. Super easy to replace them. I have a bunch of Porter Cable power tools, that I love and a couple of years ago, I bought a used set off of a guy. He sold it with several batteries because some of the batteries were "bad". LOL silly contractor. I opened up the 2 bad batteries, found which cells were bad, replaced them with some I had on hand, balanced them and WHALA! They've been working perfectly since then. But mixing 18650 cells with other batter types or super capacitors in that arrangement is bad news.

0:42 nope nope nope nope nope. There's absolutely nothing balancing those lithium cells. In just a short amount of time they'll become more and more offset until eventually a) one cells gets so low it stop making electrical connection and stops working or b) one get too high and explodes, starting a fire that cannot be put out by traditional methods, and turning your car into a Tesla fire. Not to mention it'll fail to work in cold temperatures. There's a reason we still use SLA batteries for starting cars and not the lighter more compact lithium ones that have to be temperature controlled like EVs do.

10:08 - My mother had one of these before she got her keyless Mercedes.. She though it looked really pretty and bought one, installed it herself and tried to start the car the next day.. didn't work.. I knew it was something with that stupid ring, so I yanked it off.. Car starts.. I put it back on, car doesn't start.. What I think is happening is that it's causing some kind of short. Maybe that's blocking current or something like that.. Heck I think these things even got on the news once telling people not to buy them.
