Supercapacitors are amazing devices that are known for their incredible power density. But the ones on the market aren't as energy dense as is required for them to out compete lithium batteries. In this video we explore all of the basics of supercapacitor building, from making electrode paints, to selection of current collectors, to measuring the completed cells.

While we only build a very simple cell in the video, the same basic recipe is useful for a variety of chemistries, including those that use graphene and carbon nanotubes.

The Thought Emporium Science is a bottomless well of some of the most amazing things this universe has to offer. There is so much amazing science and engineering that gets done, but most often the only ones who get to experience it first hand are those in expensive labs in universities. This channel aims to explore as much of fields of science and engineering as possible by showing real experiments and research being done in a fun and accessible way. While the goal is to show that even very hard science can be done in a DIY way, some projects will use some of the fancier toys that while less accessible, opens a broader range of projects that can be done. We cover everything from genetic engineering and tissue culture, to nuclear physics, to machine engineering, to chemical synthesis and more.
