i stumbled across this looking for the current draw/production on a wet cell i am building.
Yea yea........primitive.....but cheap
at least.......i'm coating the edges in tool handle dip, using a 50 amp PWM, 316L, distilled water (same water i make colloidal silver from) and "food" grade KOH....
Anything to beat BigOil™'s monopoly grip and clean this planet up!!!!!
Nice vid busy brit, I'm going to try your neutrals technique on my 11 plate wetcell, thanks. Oh, and what guage of wire are your leads coming from the drycell, 12 or 14 guage?
I saw one guy use plastic dip. wow what a mess. it get eaten and ends up in your cell after a while. I tried rtv silicone. Nope same problem. man it took me forever to clean it off the plate. i almot gave up and was going to cut new ones. wife said hell no. no more money.
Nice job on the design.You are making a respectable amount of gas for the amp draw. My cells make 1 lpm @ 12 amps. You can improve efficiency by separating the electrolyte between the plates with staggered holes so the voltage doesn't shoot right past the plates through your recirculation holes. If you have no heat after an hour of running you have an efficient unit.
If it makes more heat, then it makes less gas for the same amount of amps. Cell efficiency 101, more heat = less hho gas. You really just have to find a balance where the "sweet spot" is without boiling the electrolyte. The best that has been found so far is approximately 2 volts per plate gap. This is what e neutral plates do. They divide the voltage across the plate stack. +NNNNN- = 2.3 volts per plate gap at 13.8 volts going in to the cell, +NNNN- = 2.76 V per plate gap at 13.8 V going in etc
I think you could get alot larger output with larger vents on plates. Possibly a 1/4" slit close to top. Have you tried plasti-dip or rubber paste the cut edges of the plates to keep from the electrolysis from being pulled to the edges? You can kinda see it happening at your two solution holes on the bottom of your plate.
Nice.......

+nnnn-nnnn+ less power and less heat. same result with hho output. you can use tap water if you make closer cell spacing.

It makes more heat but uses less engery ! Think about what you just quoted.

I dont get why everyone does +NN-NN+NN- or stuff like that why not just do +-+-+- much easyer and beat yes it makes more heat but uses less engery
