Battery Explosion

  • 12 years ago
Burning out 3 x D-cells via a low voltage, high current power transformer and a variac. The test current varies between 22 and 34 Ampères at 8 to 16 Volts 50 Hz.
It took about 5 minutes but I have edited the boring part out.

Biggest problem was during the experiment to maintain good contact while the cells build up pressure.

I have built a better rig now and more tests will follow soon on Youtube.
