No, the anode matrix has the physical dimensions designed to store the lithium at its maximum size.
This limitation of the anode matrix is why its incredibly dangerous to overcharge a lithium based battery, as once the anode matrix is full of lithium, it has nowhere else to go, hence.. boom.

This technology is special in that its allowing a much greater growth in the size of the stored particles, while still maintaining electrical contact during discharge, and allowing the full particle size when charging. The anode matrix itself is just designed to hold the lithium compounts while maintaining electrical contact, and yet stopping the anode and cathode from shorting together which once again ends in boom.

Thats the issue with lithium technology, charge too fast, boom, discharge too fast, boom, charge to long, boom.
Pretty well do exactly what it says it can do, otherwise, boom.

Hate to be that guy, but reversing the wiring on a pool electrolysis cell does NOTHING apart from clean the carbon grids.

Yes, pool stores are all in on the "you need a new grid" or charging you lots of dollars to clean it when deposits build up on it.

Just reverse the polarity. Hell, some controllers even use a special expensive super amazing automatic clean mode which does....... you guessed it, reverses the voltage every now and then.

This is salt water pools by the way. There is nothing else on any other kind of pool to rewire backwards.
Hooking up ac to the grid directly will just explode it, and you, on the spot.

Oh i find it intrinsically interesting.
I was just wondering if it had any real world implications, which as i have read other people's comments, was noted as to the accuracy of dating methods.
Thats all. Science IS cool, i just wanted to know if this actually had any significance, or just one of those cool but non significant things science brings around ya know.

I hate to be THAT person, but what does this mean for us normal humans? Does it mean anything at all?

This is why old people die, not because they are old, its because they sit down all the time!
