In an early prototype, Mills and his R&D team used tungsten or
nickel electrodes with a lithium or potassium electrolyte solution.
The CO2 will eventually disappear as the heat and direct currents from steel and
nickel electrodes are infused into it.
«Therefore, even if zinc dendrites form, they will grow away from
the nickel electrode and will not short the battery.»
Theses dendrites can grow until they finally reach
the nickel electrode, causing the battery to short circuit and fail.

In
nickel - cadmium (NiCad) batteries, for example, the Cd (OH) 2 and Ni (OH) 2 that are formed during cell discharge are readily converted back to the original
electrode materials (Cd and NiOOH), when the cell is recharged.
The molecular structure of the active material in the battery
electrodes is composed of
nickel (Ni), manganese (Mn) and oxygen (O)-- where the structure is a relatively rigid crystal lattice into which the lithium ions, as mobile charge carriers, can be inserted or extracted.
