In the 1800s, before the invention of the electrical generator (the generator was not invented and perfected until the 1870s), the Daniell cell was extremely common for operating telegraphs and doorbells. The Daniell cell is also known by three other names:
- Crowfoot cell (because of the typical shape of the zinc electrode)
- Gravity cell (because gravity keeps the two sulfates separated)
- Wet cell (because it uses liquids for the electrolytes, as opposed to the modern dry cell)
This really helped my class learn about the invention of a battery, as we are learning about inventors and inventions, and are looking very closly at the battery history.
This has been the best website/blog I’ve seen so far, and I obviously won’t get a better one!
4J say: Thank you for this website! It really helped us with our infomation!
Thank you Emma! We will continue adding to this website very soon!
I am in the 5th grade and we are studying inventions and this was very helpful
they are bothe same thing i am in 6th grade and i know that stuff so i need knew information on batteries so i can finish my battery project
i need knew information so i can finish my project also im in 6th grade and i no all of that stuff alredy so it would help if nyou put new information for me and plenty of other kids thank you
I agree…
No offense or anything, but I am also a grade 6 student, trying to finish a project on “Alessandro Volta”. I guess it isn’t fully your fault, because this is about batteries… but I just always feel the need to give feedback… SORRY IF I OFFENDED YOU!
I’m in 5th grade and I’m doing a research paper and this is helpful
this is a good research keep up the good work
you are doing a great job and i lernt a lot about batteries through this process
nice website needs more info though

some great information you helped me and my friend do a whole project
thanks heaps akira
no i like experiments
Awesome thanks
Very helpful, thank u!
awesome information! good job!
this is the best website because i am going to do my science fair project about batteries so this is perfect i will not copy the stuff you guys have done but i do think think this i a very interesting project. thank you for supporting this info thank you.
thanks i got a lot of information.
thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaankkkkkkkkkkkk yyyyyyyyyyyyyooooooooooouuuuuuuuuu

good but more please
i think you guys should ask a scientists

its awsome
doing a secience project and,needs more research

Thank you for answering this question in a very kid friendly way. My third graders were wondering about batteries and this is a good start for our investigation.
cool info !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome site thank you it really helped
thank u and it was cool
it gave me and my class all the information i need
thanks for giving my son a bad grade in class
Pingback: Batteries 101: Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) Batteries | Chrome Battery
it is also short information
this help me
OMG GUYS THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE THIS WEBSITE!!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!
YOU ARE RIGHT
didn’t really help
got lots of info. for research
this website doesnt give enough info.
it does have a FEW interesting facts and is child friendly which i admire
This gave like lots of info
<3 this
Not enough info :(:(:(:(:(:(:(
Thank you this helph me on my science project alot!
Estoy en bastante de acuerdo con lo dicho post, me parece muy bueno el anĂ¡lisis realizado, espero poder particitat en ella con mis comentarios , de momento darles las gracias por compartir estas ideas. Un saludo a todos .
I really need more info and nice job mate đŸ˜‰
This was very helpful thaks
helped me a lot
yea what what!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! alsome in my world
thank you for your help I found it really useful because I’m in the 6th grade and I’m doing the Science Fair at my school and my project is about battery us and I have to write a 5 to 7 page report and I it’s really hard and I needed more info so my report is going to start with the history of the battery so I found this really useful
sorry I was typing fast and my project idea is battery use not battery us
I am doing a science fair project on batteries and need to sit my resources. Who would I put for the author an the article Battery History?
Thank You
COCOON That helped lots!
Cool!
That helped lots!
Thanks! I was doing a project and Battery Kids made it so simple!
THIS IS AWSOME
THIS IS AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you tank you very much.
