Thanks! This kit is for R&D and educational purposes only, because of the use of positive displacement pumps (peristaltic, diaphragm, etc) instead of centrifugal pumps, it will never be able to effectively work as a battery since the pumping energy cost is high.
Once we have materials and electrolytes validated with the kit, we plan to move to a much larger cell size which will be part of a flow battery stack, which would actually function as a battery for useful storage.
