Limited Sucess, new materials to try

I am going to be coating the anode and cathode with graphene in order to increase the surface area and electrons that can be stored electrolytically.
In the same vein I will be experimenting with copper sulfate in the dielectric, for what reason I don't know but I had a dream about a bright blue electrolyte/superdielectric and copper sulfate is bright blue.
The advantage of these over EDLC capacitors are a much higher power density or almost instantaneous discharge.
This will be primarily entered into the citizen scientist portion of the 2016 HAD prize.
