    Huh… A rust battery? That wouldn’t have been what I expected a long lasting battery chemistry to look like. You probably have to avoid using iron in any other part of the battery structure/electronics, I imagine the corrosion risk would be quite high.

    I wonder how their reliability compares to saltwater batteries or lead acid. Also, flow batteries seem like a holy grail for large scale storage, I’m curious how they compare to iron air.
