minus-squareboonhet@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months ago All-iron flow batteries hold immense potential due to their use of cheap, abundant iron and safe, water-based electrolytes. So it’s a rust battery? Because that’s what happens when iron gets watery. It rusts. I mean if it works, that’s great, I just find it funny.

No leaks either!
