Hello, sorry if this is a stupid question, but do you know how to make a homemade electrolyte that can produce a really high voltage? (Preferably, one that can produce more than 2.8 V?)
Its fairly easy to make a home made electrochemical cell using electrolytes, as all you really need are ions in solution (Na+, K+, etc) connected together.
But most of those don’t produce really high voltages. From what I’ve seen 0.5-1.5V is what you get from simple ions.
To get near 3V requires more advanced chemicals. I’m not aware of a home made electrolyte that can achieve that voltage range, but if you know, feel free to let me know.
