Our Tynergy batteries and charger work well - our batteries get a huge workout - going through one or two AAA batteries every day. Our initial pack is still doing pretty well over a year later. They don't keep going as long as they did at first, and definately not as long as a nonrechargeable. But they still recharge and hold the charge for lengthy periods (misplaced one and found it months later in a backpack, still ready to go). We are getting ready to purchase a second pack of these, not to replace the ones we have, but for a backup for when they are needed. We'll keep using what we have now, even once they'll only work an hour or two (they are still averaging 6 for now), for the times when that is sufficient. We would have gone through probably at least 500 regular batteries in this time period. The rechargeables have been a huge savings, and we've been extremely satisfied with their functioning. I had tried other kinds of rechargeables, before we found the Tynergy, and were nowhere near as satisfied. Different problems for different kinds, but basically they just didn't really work for us. Tynergy has. And, no, I'm not a salesperson, have no connection with the company other than as a consumer of the product. Sara

I second that comment. It's an impressive project and I hope it succeeds.

One point regarding cost: 9V batteries aren't cheap. I just purchased a charger and batteries from a company called Tynergy; these are on Amazon and eBay both. It has good ratings on Amazon.

If you put together a low-cost kit, including Tynergy batteries might be a good idea.

I have no connection to the company.

Thanks for your interesting post.

Wow Mike. What a wonderful plan you have. I'm so impressed. It seems you've thought of everything for our single, hurried mom. I know so many women in that same situation, and when you start saying 'here's this electric device you can build--or, here's a $150 device you can buy" they just go "oh, I don't have the money and I have zero idea how to build anything". So if you make it simple and easy enough we can get them into the hands of all these families.
Great, great idea.  You have a big heart with a lot of compassion.
Samala,

  Here are some of the design considerations for the  MiniCell version
  of the SilverCell process:
  My main  concern  is  a single mom with hungry  kids  to  feed. They
  probably go to DayCare or Kindergarten, where cold and flu pathogens
  rapidly spread,  and the kids bring these germs home. So  the mother
  is constantly bathed in a sea of germs at home.
