This report on Upworthy is just so wrong. The headline says it all: "Lamp powered by seawater ...". If you know anything at all about batteries, you know that they are not powered by the electrolyte (in this case, seawater). The power is generated by the anode and cathode, through the transport (transportation, to any American readers) of material from them into the electrolyte. Journalists who understand so little about science and technology should not be allowed to write about them. | |
