An interesting article called The Gardening Electricity Handbook: https://branch.climateaction.tech/issues/issue-9/the-gardening-electricity-handbook/ about making electricity using "microbial fuel cells"

There's a PDF to download with instructions on how to make your own.

No mention of #SolarPunk, but it definitely qualifies!

The Energizer-branded EnergyBook Pro Ultra is a massive laptop with a massive battery. It has an 18 inch screen and a 192 Wh battery said to be good for up to 28 hours of "intensive office" use or 11 hours of "gaming or graphic design." #Laptop #Battery #Avenir #Energizer #EnergyBookProUltra https://www.24presse.com/press-release/ntic/laptop__energizer_pro_ultra__record_battery_life__7_days_without_recharging_9927322/

TL;DR if battery technology and price continues its current trajectory, households will be able to store all the electricity they need at a price that is similar to the solar panels on the roof in just a few years from now. https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/09/how-big-a-solar-battery-do-i-need-to-store-all-my-homes-electricity/ by @Edent

Well, after a full night of charging and reinfecting, yes, #ios26 drains the #battery faster:

Does anyone have a link to a reputable article, CATL press release or something about the $10/kWh Sodium-ion battery? As far as I can tell its a load of hype based on one automotive news site.

It all seems to go back to here: https://www.autoblog.com/news/china-sodium-ev-battery-shift with a claimed source of Bloomberg NEF but without a link.

Please boost for visibility, this is driving me nuts!

(Not saying it won't get that low, it probably will, but not for a few years.)

I've seen comments about sodium-ion cells getting down to US $10/KWh in the near future.

I think it is optimistic (to say the least) but if production rises I could imagine them at $25 - $35 per kwh for large systems in 3 years. This would be a game changer

If they could get them down to $10 - $15 per kwh for cells with limited cycle endurance then domestic seasonal storage is very interesting. Having a couple of MWh for £20K would be game changing for UK off-grid.

POOF!

A while ago, I had to replace a defective battery.

In the spirit of a once-over in that area, I floated re-doing the cables, but decided to just refit them.

First, be merciless. ::snip::

Do you have a running or sports watch that is running out of battery? I am uk based and offer watch battery replacement and button fettling as a service, to keep them out of landfill.

I know that Garmin has excellent customer service, but some people want to keep their existing watches going for longer.

I use quality components from reputable suppliers, get in touch if you want to discuss
