What dangers are associated with the Moe-Joe cell technology?
If one follows instructions and doesn’t do anything too stupid, no danger is involved in connecting the cell to the car. Where the danger lies is in charging with high voltage and high current – so, for example, if you were charging with a VARIAC at 100 Volts, 2 amps, and you touched your hands across the +ve and -ve leads, you could get a very nasty shock. Be careful with the electrical charging part. However, with the Pepi’s circuit, and while installing the cell in the car and using just 12V battery, this is not dangerous at all. Another danger would be to connect the cell with a vacuum seal to a blind plug – this would result in the cell building up pressure and could result in an explosion – this is something that should not be done, because blind plug does not require vacuum connection and the vacuum connection will draw in the gas from the cell, so no risk is involved at all.
