NiFe Batteries

Hello All:

 

I'm new, and this is my first post. I hope I am in the correct forum. If not, please let me know where to post.

 

 

I'm experimenting with NiFe batteries, and have constructed a small set.

 

I would like to build a larger bank, but the cost of nickel is prohibitive.

 

Can anyone here give me any information regarding the following:

 

 

1. Can nickel plated material be used instead of a nickel bar?

 

2, What other materials might be used for anodes/cathodes?

 

3. What other chemicals could be used for electrolyte?

 

Thanks for any answers, I'm not a chemist or scientist, so the simpler the answer, the better.

 

 

Thanks for any responses.

 

Regards,

 

Dave
