Nefertiti Osiris Seti (NOS). Looks like it was wax and paper but they melted out after being left out in the sun..
If you turn the power on you get magic smoke and the smell of the inside of a pharos sarcophagus..

Although soot was found in some areas of pyramids, corridors and tombs did not have traces of soot. Electricity may be used in these areas. The Baghdad battery and the first arc lights were used then. The arc lamp proves that electricity was used.
Dendera light is another.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dendera_light just looks like they're off surfing.
Makes sense. If they would use open flame deep in the pyramids, they would quickly use all oxygen and suffocate.
This would be the pot that doesn't have any evidence it was used as a battery?The Baghdad battery
what i find amazing is that they beat nicola tesla in his search for wireless electricity.
have a closer look at the pic and you will only see one leg.
i wonder if anyone has the schematics or build details ?

Read books by Charles Berlitz and Erich Von Daniken...
They had a lot to say about such things, including extra terrestrial astronauts, space suits, and space craft ports in South America.
Informative, if your taste is towards such topics.

Very early axial electrolytics. Most of which have gone bad and blew out when power was applied - which is why the positive lead has gone missing.
I thought it was common knowledge that they had space-faring civilizations in South America some 12000 years ago.Read books by Charles Berlitz and Erich Von Daniken...

Now that I look closely they could be flux capacitors.
🙄🤣
There are references in ancient Hindu texts to space flight and so on, in fact some of the bits in the Star Wars series seem copied from them.
But that is really way off topic. And elements of religion and speculation are involved....
Anyway, now with the emphasis on EVs, we are seeing a lot of battery chemistry and designs, which were unfamiliar to most people in the 1990s.

There was a comic strip, Calvin IIRC, which had a line that meant that the surest sign of extra terrestrial intelligence existed was that none of them contacted us.
When you see the things humans do to each other, think about it.

Hmm, not according to the datasheet.
Jaycar has them on backorder, due back in stock c. 1985, not cheap though.

It is no longer manufactured, but you can find fakes on Aliexpress.com. 😉Possibly 4500 year-old electrolytics.
Well, as far as raw materials and technology, they could have easily made PIO capacitors if they had any need or use for them.
Papyrus was available, high quality oil or beeswax too and they were skilled in beating gold into incredibly thin leaf.
Copper for wires was also available and high quality weatherproof casing and insulation could be achieved by dipping capacitor body and legs in tar.
No need AT ALL for cheesy Berlitz, Däniken or "Ancient Aliens" to "explain" it.

The problem with most Egyptian technology is that it seems less advanced, the newer it gets.
If batteries were developed in Egypt, you'd probably not date them that young (2500 bC).
That's aside from the question if there ever was a battery.
It is indeed interesting to wonder how they did navigate the pyramids etc, if no traces of e.g. burning wood was ever found.

The Great Pyramid has a corner that points to the North Pole, and so on.
And it has an opening which points towards a particular constellation.
And so on.
The soot problem is solved by adding salt or something quite common to the oil in the lamps.
Capacitor making, fine, the old tuning gangs were sheets with air gap.
Power generation, conductors, insulators?
What will the capacitor actually work on?
Where was the power?

Don’t go giving the snake oil audiophile industry any ideas.and they were skilled in beating gold into incredibly thin leaf.
They don´t need me 😉
Gold foil? check
Organic oil? check
Beeswax? check
Papyrus? .... almost ... would you accept silk? ... if so ... check
Hand beaten copper wire? (instead of drawn) ... that would be the only new one 😉
Tar isn´t held in very high esteem by itself, but if they can claim it was scratched out of Ramses´ mummy nose ... who knows?
Or at least made out of scum from the Dead Sea.
