    It helped me A Lot to learn the reasoning in the number code on most CR-coin cell batteries. I live in the metric part of the world so it's kind of easy. So the numbers correspond to the dimensions. For example [ CR1025 ] = 10mm diameter x 2,5mm thickness... or CR3032 is 30 x 3,2 mm etc... I don't know why they aren't more consistent but it helps to know approximately what you are looking for.

  • @chrisupton6190
    @chrisupton6190 Рік тому

    5:52 starter lighter ignition (SLI) lead acid are good for huge currents for starter motors, not to discharge and charge, deep cycle lead acid are good for charging dscharging for backup power

  • @amhapka

    Can you make a third battery video that explains how alkaline recharging units work now? I'd love to see some of the chemistry specifics. I have a recharging unit that has a sliding switch to change between nickel metal hydride, alkaline, and one other type. It works decently for alkalines but I haven't been able to find a good explanation for my chem students about why alkaline recharging is suddenly possible or what happens in the cell when it's being recharged and your explanations are so nice, crisp, and clear! Thank you for Colin's lab, I use them all the time with my robotics and physics class! Now I will use these battery ones with my chemistry kids when we do electrochemical cells!

    So why do lipos explode?

  • @ABaumstumpf
    @ABaumstumpf 7 років тому

    Nominal cell voltage is just the rough average voltage to expect over the course of a discharge.
    A LiPo, while nominal 3.6-3.7 V, goes from about 4.2 when full down to 3.6 when empty. (open circuit)
    Alkaline go form 1.6v down to ~1 V.
    lead-batteries:
    high surge currents? for their capacity kinda yes, for their size/weight no.
    They are used cause they are cheap and don't degrade with lifetime as much and fail more gradually.

  • @HugoDahl
    @HugoDahl 3 роки тому

    Late, very late, question from the peanut gallery, but I've always wondered - why would a manufacturer choose AAA over AA, or D, or others? For a while, I thought maybe it was just "which is the smallest I can get away with?", but after this video, I'm thinking, maybe, it's all about the mAh. Am I getting warmer, or am I (still) way out in left field?

    • @AntzyX
      @AntzyX 2 роки тому

      A bit of both. C, D and 9V batteries are pretty much phased out by today's devices. C and D are too big and modern electronics are efficient enough to not require 9V any more. AA and AAA are the most common. The choice between the two mostly comes down to space constraints. You can approximately fit 3 AAA in the space of 2 AA. Smaller remotes like AC remotes will use AAA while bigger ones like TV remotes will use AA. If they need it to be rechargeable and even more compact, they'll go with LiPo.

      Your local waste disposal place should have a collection point for alkaline batteries, look online at your landfill or recycling service.

    i'm doing a project where i'm making a larp nerf gun for the upcoming danish event sunfall, and i'm planning to put led's in the barrel. i really wanna run them of a li-po battery but i'm really scared im gonna puncture it because im gonna be combat rolling and dropping it all over the place... is it a horrible idea?
    also can i just say, that colin is looking goooood! that graying in his beard and hair really suits him! :)
