I've just watched both the above videos - excellent results !
@Lidmotor - Seeing the original 'Penny' still going and seeing the use of the radio is like a look back in time, way way back. Just think how many people have copied that circuit, tuned, changed, built lots of stuff over the months since and there we have the original lady STILL going !
@IB2 - Been thinking about how to do the crushing and thought of capacitors, how they're rolled up in the aluminium cans. Just a thought, that if you were to take a copper sheet and roll it with firm pressure around the Morton's and the mg strips (or sheet of), it would then be a very neat looking cell with more surface area too.
Also, ya know your Innova 3300, did you know you can test LED's with it ? put it on the diode setting and the meter will light LED's to test clear ones for what colour they are etc. My other meters don't do that (Electronics Goldmine backlit and Sears 82139 types)
