#037 C6 MadStu's WFC - Bubbler / Reservoir Build

Nice ride! Can't wait to see what kind of economy increase you get with a 6L EBN cell on it!

[MadStu1978]

Hehe, It's not as nice as it once was...

It's 20 years old. It's got dents, dints and scrapes all over it. It's obviously been dropped and slid more than a few times. It's got an oil leak and the fuel pump died last week, but I LOVE IT!

That is old school man...old school :D

It still look like new sport bike, you have keep it in real love and care about your bike. It will give you many tousants and more miles ride for you, and still will work. Hope it will give you fuel saving!

[MadStu1978]

I can ride around without any care for it's asthetics. I don't have to take care when I'm getting on and off. And I've bypassed the fuel pump, it doesn't even need one - Gravity seems to work just fine. I'll video a short journey on it soon.

[MadStu1978]

Oh, and not sure how much gas will be produced from the bike's meager power supply, we will soon see!

Nice work yes! 5 big ones for you! ;)

[MadStu1978]

Yay! LOL, Thanks :)

Looks like I started watching your videos at about the right time as you look like your starting back up again :). I just wanted to ask if you are planning on the reservoir and the bubbler using the same fluid or are you going to try and keep them isolated form each other. I'll admit for the previous video are the neutral plates being used to limit the current?

[MadStu1978]

Hehe, yeah I've started with YouTube again - although I've never really stopped. Just been busy doing other stuff behind the scenes. Plus lack of money doesn't help, lol, this is an expensive past-time.

Yes, the reservoir and bubbler will both be in the same container. This will act as a fluid seperator aswell. I will have a second bubbler aswell though.

The nuetral plates aren't actualy neutral - they're just not connected to an outside source of power...

[MadStu1978]

... All the plates are connected in series between each outside wire. The config would be + N N N N -. The electrolyte (water) between each plate is what connects them all together. Each gap between the plates though drops the voltage (because the plates are in series).

So the neutrals are there to drop the voltage in each cell, not to limit current.

Hope this helps

[comos2103]

lol yeah i figured that out right after I asked the question. it does help though it gives me an idea of things to test when i start experimenting

I bet this is an expensive hobby the steel it self could be a couple hundred. that is why i have to wait till after i pay off my wedding before starting.

[MadStu1978]

Hehe, good idea :)
