What is the Dry Battery?

Dry batteries, also known as primary batteries, are a type of battery that uses a chemical reaction to generate electrical energy. Unlike rechargeable batteries, dry batteries cannot be recharged once their energy is depleted and must be replaced.

Why is it Called a Dry Battery?

The term "dry" refers to the fact that the battery electrolyte is in a solid or paste form, rather than in a liquid state as is the case with wet cell batteries. This makes dry batteries less prone to leakage and spillage, and also makes them more compact and portable.

Classification of Dry Batteries

Dry batteries come in various types and sizes, each with their own unique chemical composition and voltage output. The most common types include alkaline, zinc-carbon, and lithium batteries.

Alkaline batteries are the most widely used type and are known for their high energy density and long shelf life. Zinc-carbon batteries, on the other hand, are cheaper and have a lower energy density, making them ideal for low-drain devices.

Lithium batteries are the most expensive of the three and are commonly used in high-tech devices like digital cameras and laptops due to their high energy density and long-lasting performance.

Overall, dry batteries are a reliable and convenient source of power for a wide range of electronic devices and appliances, making them a staple in our daily lives.

I FORGOT TODAY WAS THE DAY WITH NO ELECTRICITY THEY TOLD US ABOUT A FEW MONTHS AGO I KNEW ID FORGET ABOUT IT THE DAY IT WOULD COME

#and I barely have any battery #and can’t eat all my data #AND THE HIUSE IS ALL DAEK BECAUSE THE STUPID STORES (don’t know the english name) WORK WITH ELECTRICITY #can’t even cook because one the food is in the fridge two we have stupid PLAQUES ÉLECTRIQUES #AND MY HAIR IS WET AND I CANT BLOW DRY IT #oh and I can’t leave the house either because again no electricity therefore gate can’t open #and I only had 4 hours of sleep last night #like a cherry on top #end of rant #for now #it will only last until early afternoon #but 4h feels like a lot in these conditions #almost 5 actually

my dumbass dog zaya chewed up all the lowest hanging ornaments on our xmas tree AND the battery pack for the lights -_-

#luckily she didn't break or swallow any batteries but who knows if/how much plastic she ate #she did a thorough job with several baubles some of which were vintage.... at least all my fav ornaments were higher up #vet says she seems ok and to keep an eye on her which we already do but we all left the house to grocery shop at once #and came back to a murder scene #this is after she pissed on my office carpet (she's not allowed in my office idk how she got there for long enough to piss all over it)#which is still at the dry cleaners. ffs #i told my parents when they insisted on adopting her she'd always cause this sort of trouble. AND I WAS RIGHT #but i feel bad harping upon that fact bc goddammit she's an idiotic dog but i feel sorry for her a little. just a little #our older dog chess is the golden child. she was never this much trouble!#ką sako lapė #oh and this isn't even zaya's first xmas with us. all of last year and this one until today she's always ignored the tree #so like. girl what happened..

ive been sick at home with a cold so i've been teaching myself some more rng manipulation stuff in pokemon - this time for gen3. it's surprisingly pretty easy once you get used to it! today i managed to nab this shiny female treecko today in my copy of emerald version!

fun fact: emerald's rng is, technically, "broken"!! basically, whenever you start the game, the seed you get is always 0 rather than it being randomized like it's supposed to be. that essentially makes soft reset shiny hunts impossible, since you'll likely be encountering the same (not shiny) pokemon with each soft reset. but that's why i specifically wanted to try out rng manipulation in emerald, as the consistency makes for some interesting rng hunts imo.

anyway, as you can see, i named this lil treecko 'ivy'! :) excited to do more rng stuff in this copy of the game hehe

#jamietxt #shiny hunt tag #technically my copies of sapphire and ruby also have this broken rng iirc? bc their batteries are dry now #but i didnt look into rng stuff for those two since emerald's situation is more familiar to me #and restarting my childhood copy of sapphire was obviously out of the question #but yeah this has opened up a whole world of possible shiny ribbon master challenges... you love to see it

this is the most beautiful furby i own now i think oml

#banana peel furby #furby #i always loved the way the slightly darker faceplate looks with the silvery fur #and combined with the yellow its soo pretty #i also like the grey eyes on him; i liked seeing silver eyes on these but ngl i love this maybe even more #freshly washed and repaired (some seams needed cleanup and he was missing thread on one of his paws)#again used conditioner so hes extremely soft <3 #his siblings are still drying as well as their battery compartments (did a vinegar cleanup but one was super rusty underneath..)#will test them tomorrow or later today and then try jumpstarting them and moving their gears if theres no changes

how safe are weed vapes compared to like regular vapes? I've recently heard vapes are like horrible for you cus you're just smoking a shit ton of chemicals but does that depends on what's being smoked?....since you said the weed is just being heated up is there less chemical intake overall or just less combustion byproduct like you said before (sorry if this makes like no sense I'm not familiar with this stuff at all or how it works lol but I also had a really bad experience with edibles and have bad lungs so I just wanted to know a bit more)

Hey sorry for responding so late I had gotten most of this post done after you first sent it but I ran out of energy and got too perfectionistic. Anyways here it is:

Excellent question! The first formal modern e-liquid vape was only released in 2003, though various attempts had been made earlier, which means we are still researching the long-term effects they have on health. When the average person says "vape", they almost exclusively mean "e-liquid vape".

Currently, what we can see about e-liquid vapes: They're not very good. They do reduce some smoking risks (no tar) but introduce other risks, and have a reputation of being safer and a potential smoking cessation aid while a reality of unregulated and poorly sourced ingredients which can cause acute and lasting lung damage.

Dry herb vaping, which is what I recommend, is much more straightforward, but only recently popularized and thus still needing more research.

At the risk of being a square: Any time you intentionally inhale something other than air, you're introducing more risk than if you simply never smoked or vaped anything. But like don't let that stop you, we take on risk all the time, that's what harm reduction's all about babey

Dry Vapes are Not Vapes

A vape or e-cigarette is a device that heats and vaporizes a liquid carrier with a suspension of the psychoactive chemical, either nicotine or THC. These are what people think of when they think of vapes, and these are generally the most problematic for having untested and unregulated chemicals while being touted as healthier.

A dry vape/dry herb vaporizer is the method I recommend, which heats the plant material (or concentrate like wax--I haven't done this myself personally) and evaporates the cannabinoids and terpenes without combustion. It's basically like baking your weed in a tiny oven.

This method was popularized most recently in 1993 with Eagle Bill's Shake and Vape, though apparently the principle of boiling vapor has existed since ancient times.

General Smoking Health Risks

Tobacco and weed both produce "tar" when burned--a catch-all for a variety of chemicals, many of which are carcinogenic, produced during combustion. The tar isn't made from the THC or the nicotine, but from the plant matter itself and its additives. If you burn plant matter and inhale the smoke, you inhale a certain number of toxic and carcinogenic chemicals.

There is some conflict on if smoking weed causes cancer. It certainly doesn't carry the same correlation as tobacco, but the reasons are unknown. We don't have long-term studies verifying a connection between the two. Very preliminary lab tests suggest that THC and CBD have antitumor effects, but it'll be a while before we can figure out the deal. There is still risk!!!

Regardless, the deposition of tar in lungs is an irritant and increases risks of things like bronchitis. For someone with asthma or weak lungs, smoking of any kind causes problems.

E-Cigarettes, or e-liquid vapes

E-cigarettes were manufactured to counter tobacco cigs starting in 2003. An e-cig heats a liquid with a suspension of nicotine, atomizing it into droplets of vapor that are then inhaled.

The liquid is usually propylene glycol or glycerol with other additives like flavorants. It seems like propylene glycol and glycerol have been safe for ingestion as a food additive, but being atomized in an inhaled form is pretty new and the effects aren't well-known.

The major issue is that we don't have a standardized and proven-effective vape juice formula. E-liquid is poorly regulated and many samples contain entirely unidentified substances.

This is the major cause for concern.

THC vape liquids have similar issues, including being cut with Vitamin E acetate, which was correlated with a string of vaping-related lung disease, though not fully confirmed to be the culprit.

Hopefully this delineates why vaping, as in e-liquid vaping, is problematic, and why dry vape is comparatively safer.

Why dry herb vape?

The boiling of the material introduces fewer (but not 0) unknown or undesired chemicals into the airstream. You're primarily getting the cannabinoids.

On a user experience level: It's quite weed-efficient, the weed tastes better w/o the smoke, it produces less smell, the vapor is less harsh on the lungs (you can and will still cough if you inhale too much tho), not much less portable than a joint

You can get a bong adapter and get megahigh still (I do have a bong but I don't like getting that fucked up)

Some vapes can heat concentrates, wax, etc. for potent highs (I haven't done this. But you can. Research yourself)

The already vaped bud (AVB) can be saved and reused for edibles, extracts, and concentrates; it's gonna be stripped of a lot of the psychoactives already, but not all of them--obvs be mindful of dosing here

Downsides: You do have to recharge battery vapes and get over the learning curve of batteryless (I'm pretty shit at using mine). You also have to clean your equipment every once in a while which is nbd for me who likes cleaning but yknow it does require upkeep. Easier than cleaning a bong tho

So, could you dry vape tobacco?

You can, but you probably shouldn't. Nicotine itself is highly physically and psychologically addictive and classified as toxic, and while it isn't considered carcinogenic, it is potentially a tumor promoter.

Pretty much everyone I know who's on nic tells me they don't like it, they wish they could quit, and they would never want me or anyone else to start.

Last, some Dry Herb Vaporizer Tips

Controlling the temperature allows you to control which cannabinoids are released to a certain extent.

Hot vapor can still irritate your lungs. Keeping a relatively low temperature (Guides indicate the best range) and having a long enough vapor path that the vapor can cool will help you have a smoother inhale.

Do not use a vaporizer with cheap elements. Plastic near the heating element will cause by-products.

Contaminants and pesticides can be inhaled, source your material appropriately

Overheating can still cause combustion. You will smell, taste, and see smoke if this happens.

All the physical and psychological risks of weed are present--Take it easy, know your limits, don't vape or smoke when you're in an unstable state, etc.

Thanks for reading, I hope this helps you make informed decisions and potentially find a way of intaking weed that suits your needs :) If you have any more Qs I'll try to answer (IN FEWER WORDS)

#indexed post #LONG POST #weed #vaping #vape #dry herb vaporizer #Also I don't want to plug brands that hard you can look on reddit for recs but #I got a combo deal of the potv ONE (battery) and the dynavap M (batteryless) for like $160 on sale and #while its an investment it's very worth it imo. Again the general efficiency and the AVB add a lot #I am not a heavy user by any means but I like. Have so much weed. I cant go thru it all.#Cuz its very efficient you can squeeze like 2-3 sessions out of one chamber of weedwhich is like #Idk how much goes into one pot its probably like 0.5-2g.

The constant Feels Like I'm Going Nowhere that has persisted for years really fucks up your brain huh. I haven't:

Continued electrolysis in pursuit of bottom surgery (No healthcare for a while, and now currently I have no income)

Gotten my associates. Granted, this is something I'm (hopefully) finishing this semester. I should have been done so last semester but health issues and disabilities severely limit how much I can do a semester. I had to basically drop 2 classes last semester. I've been in college for 6 years.

Related to the above statement, watching the industry I started my degree for constantly burning more and more each year has worn me down. 2 years of experience in my field doesn't qualify for a starter position apparently, nor does it seem like applications even get viewed most of the time.

Moved away from family. It is actively harmful in this 'home'. Family constantly belittles and insults me. No money + paying off a car for several years has limited what I've been able to do money wise. One of the few times I could have saved up I was paying rent to my family (except they had me mark it as not rent, so they wouldn't get taxed for it) for pretty much all my extra income. This should be resolved this year when I move in with the loml who has been the best and I can't go into detail without bawling about my love for her and how she helps just being around.

Past jobs have also fucked me over. Becoming the only manager of a medical/retail mix at the age of 19 stressed me out to the point I had breakdowns weekly. 2 years working at a sbux wore my physical body down to the point I'm still having issues 2 years later. I did all this with misdiagnosed fibromyalgia since I was 12 (Idk how a past fucking dr thought I had a certain other 6 WEEKS MAX condition when it had already been years). I'm just so tired. I don't even know if I can get on disability, I feel like I'd be rejected. I hardly know what I could even do for work at this point. I left my last job because of harassment from all the way up to the VP. That job was just sitting around half the time and my pain was so bad I missed weeks of work regularly for a couple months. I just feel so lost half the time. Being in the workforce for 10 years has just made me a broken husk devoid of passions.

#Generally I'm honestly pretty happy right now #Stress from classes makes me want to fucking maim one of my professors because FUCK business classes.#But just. I need change. Change is scary but its needed #I've needed change for ages (move out)#The one time I did I was fucking abused in more than one way. I know that won't happen again but just. It makes my stomach turn a bit.#I need more friends I can hang out with too #but my social battery runs dry so so so fast.#I miss Maxine rn too.#But I know I can't just spew all my problems at her all the time #That would be unfair #Thats half the reason just typing this all out here.#I know I'm not unique in a lot of these problems but just. Fuck. I'm exhausted and I have been for years.#I forget what I've tagged my rants and stuff as before.

Making like Emmet and having an army of tiny Pokémon. Except instead of Joltiks, you have Tatsugiris.

#you have an army of tiny sushi dragons #shitpost #pokémon #submas #emmet #at least your army doesn’t require batteries #they do however require water #tatsugiri #you have a little pool for them to take a dip in if they get too dry #they like to splash around in there

I keep having to spend money

#desperately need a new batter for my stylus (weird size)#out of lotion (I have eczema and it’s dry as fuck this winter)#and the pens I use to write everything stopped working #you will never guess how much it cost me to buy those things. because it was $65 #the only place I could find my lotion is Amazon and it was a two pack #and I can’t find my batteries or pens in stores right now and I’ve been looking for three weeks #plus I had to buy toothpaste and soap and deodorant today #it’s too much 😭#I need to stop needing things to live fr

When I have time I think I would like to play all the Pokemon games in order. So far I've only played Ruby and Shield but there's so many other cool ones out there and I would love to experience the whole series. Yes I realize this would be a ridiculously time consuming and possibly expensive endeavor

#maybe it wont be TOO bad if i just play one from each gen tho #...and any dlc's that exist for the gen #MAIN problem tho would be finding a way to play the older ones #yeah i could just buy some old game boys (i think i even have my old gb advance somewhere)#but i know at LEAST ruby has an internal battery that would be long dead by now #and ive tried to replay it on emulators in the past but all the ones i could find ALSO told me the internal battery had run dry?#even tho it was being run in an app on my phone??#maybe i could learn to replace the internal battery myself #hmm. much to consider #rambling

I feel so horrible
