Hmm this guy did a different yet simple setup. He uses a DC power supply (mine is sitting in my guest bedroom and I’m trying not to open it til Xmas), 3 big capacitors in series, and some graphite rods for the electrodes.

Probably not as fast as the big battery but still a cool idea and he claims he can spot weld copper with it (which I’m assuming is more difficult than the nickel strips).

I wanna load test this car battery somehow and see what kind of balls she had left in her. Seems to be taking and holding a charge better than I expected, but my little 4A charger is great for the 10Ah scooter battery and slow as steam coming off a cold turd with a full size one. She sure did blow some holes in the nickel strips with the test run and that was at 11.9V.

I need a fuckin purpose before I get the motivation to perfect the thing. Any ideas on an easy fix to control the output for different materials?
