Battery Has Been Running for 176 Years

Just ran across this one.  Physicists need to figure this one out and miniaturize them, up the amps and lower the voltage so they can put them in cell phones.  Probably not possible with just the copper and aluminum, but maybe an alloy could be created...

 

Still very cool though.

Physicists have figured it out, they built it. 

 

If you don't need a lot of energy, it's not overly difficult to build a long lasting power source. Like sand in an hourglass. Your smart phone has probably used up more energy in the last hour than that bell has in its entire life.

The article I got the video from is only a day old so unless she is very wrong, they haven't entirely figured this specific battery it out yet.  I also acknowledged in my post that the Watts need to be upped.

No, they know how it works, they just don't know how that particular battery was built. All the science is known.

 

It's like baking some cookies. I've got a secret recipe, that you don't exactly know, but hey it's cookies right? How hard can it be? So you bake your own cookies that taste similar to mine, but it's not exactly the same...you don't precisely know how my cookies are made, but your cookies are also tasty, so...I think I'm hungry.

I'll take your word for it.  I have very little knowledge when it comes to this type of battery.  I do know a bit about the "Baghdad batteries" though.

Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
Battery is here to stay

Smashing through the boundaries
Lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the battery
Pounding out aggression
Turns into obsession
Cannot kill the battery

Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me

Battery
Battery
