How rechargeable batteries work

From Burn: An energy project

[jimbaker]

*This battery reconditioning program exceeded my presumptions. It worked on any drill battery, several AA and AAA batteries, **batery.repair** and any camera battery. The steps are simple and the act itself is exciting to do. No matter what type of battery you`ve got, it is sure to function again!*

What a beautiful and simple to understand video ! Thanks a lot ! if I could I would give 1 thousand stars for this movie !

i dont understand how you can "force" electrons back, I understand everything else, but not how you can "force it back using energy"

FINNALY a video that’s not complicated

[unknownmanufacturer]

Not completely true but it definitely makes it easier to fallow and understand how the basic concept works

Ok. So before a conductor is connected from terminal side A to terminal side B. Side A is negatively charged because there’s a lot more electrons than protons, and side B is positively charged because there’s less electrons than protons. Side A electrons want to “neutralize” (don’t know the proper term) the cations of side B. To take it from a positive charge, to a neutral state.

So when you add a circuit from terminal A to terminal B. The electrons are now free to travel to terminal B where there’s more protons than electrons. After some time, enough electrons have passed from side A to B to make side B negatively charged. So because side B is now negatively charged, the canions that were left from side A now want to “neutralize” the negative charge of side B. So they travel directly from side A to B within the battery. Side B runs out of “space” and will no longer accept anymore canions from side A. The battery is dead.

Is that right? What happens when a rechargeable battery is dead? Is side A neutral and side B positive/negative charged, is side A positive/negative charged and side B positive/negative charged, or are both sides neutral?

If we can't see the position of an electron according to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle how can we know that Electrons are moving and causing current to flow ?

I don't get the last part. How do you force the electrons back. Really wish he explained it in the same simple way he explained the first part :) Anyway, great video, thanks!

The best way to charge a battery is to simply use another battery put both the + ends on each other and use electrical tape to tape the middle part and wait about 15-20 minutes you might be able to use aluminum foil but I’m not sure that would work or ofc leave it somewhere where nothing can touch it this might take longer but it’s worth a shot

Had two watch this video a couple of times

I wanna reverse this point of view the electrons get invited to a party and they run and invite the atoms then when the food runs out because it's too crowded they all leave like In real life 😂😂😂

If my eternal battery faces a certain back track, I won't have a problem need to add a rechargable battery to change the magnetic pol arity to keep it functional. All while allowing some energy conducted by the eternal battery to reroute back into the rechargable battery.

If electricity is a constant flow I'm at a loss at how batteries are charged. You have a dead battery so you plug it into the wall. Electrons travel through the cord into the battery charging it but if electricity is a constant flow of electrons, and the battery is actually storing the electrons, how does the electricity continue to flow back to the wall socket? Is the answer as simple as the battery doesn't take all the electrons? Help! Thanks, -Eric

What type of battery is this? Lithium Ion?

[Glass-Eye]

I’m confused cuz when I use up a battery, it’s not connected to the charger. When I charge it, that’s when it’s connected. So how does the first half work?

الى خلانى افكر فى الشىء بصراحة اصل لو ركزت ممكن افتكر وانا عندى سنة كنت بشرب لبن الساعة كام
الى خلانى افكر فى الشىء دة التفاعلات بتاعة اللزق
اة الامير دة سيلكون
اة والله بيتفاعل مع الهواء
دة كان ىأيى
صح

[matejvidovic]

what is the energy in this case when you say ''introduce the energy back''

[gobalik]

why do rechargeable batteries only have a finite number of recharge cycles? why cant you "endlessly" force material b ions back into material a?

[teezsultanhamraa]

انا قلت مردتش اققول للى سئلنى تانى مرة هويتى عشان
محدش ياخد فكرة خربان
طيب تروح انت تقول اصل اخوك اخوان او شىء تعطى الشىء لحد تانى
دة جزاتى

[Droobie]

what's the energy that force the electrons back??
