Bromine and Chlorine are both from the same corrosive column on the periodic
table so you want to avoid breathing the fumes.
The design of this battery avoids the production of fumes but I don't expect to
see a vehicle application in the near future.

I've recently had the chance to take a close look at RedFlow in Australia. They
have a zinc bromine flow battery. It has electrodes made of carbon but the
electrolyte is zinc bromide. The battery isn't designed for vehicle use and
isn't certified for that. It can deliver 3KW continuously at 60
Sounds almost too good to be true. But like in decades Past,
When I can go out and buy a 16 - 20 KWH pack
I will then TEST it, and then Believe...

that is not a battery. I don't know what that would be but the whole idea
of storing electricity
I have wondered why the vanadium redox battery has not become widely used
- yep it uses liquids but gasoline is liquid- if not for vehicles then
solar energy storage .The membrane used is expensive but you don't need
much .
