I doubt the liquid nitrogen would do anything negative. It would probably improve the batteries performance as it would most likely make the battery a giant superconductor, but it would be interesting to see.


Except that the plastic containing the batteries is likely to crack, and the electrolyte may very well freeze at 77K.*

I am just imagining what would happen if you accidentally spilled some juice or something on that. 6 different types of metal, electrolyte, lots of contact areas... and you get a huge chunk of battery. I can only imagine trying to take it apart after it's rusted through. :P

Yeah, what you have right there is the compressor stage of a centrifugal flow turbojet. I want one. :lol:

More importantly...what the F*** is going on with his right-hand middle finger?!
A man who's impatient and wealthy - in my hobby - will soon have nothing but time.
A man with little money and keen wits is much better-off.

He probably has a granddaughter ,IE:Fingernail polish ?
Unless he needs to see where his middle finger is when he is machining so as not to loose it . :shock:
