  • Nice one guys

  • Anybody tried this but with the solar stirling engine, or with wind energy?

  • i think more information about the electrical conductivity of solar panels should be open to the public. That means how much electricity it produces for its cost and its usability. so far i believe that solar panels are better applied on a smaller scale than a larger scale. On a larger scale it takes up a lot of land assuming for the amount of electricity it produces. Not only that but i assume they last only about 50 years and have to be re-made again.

  • It does not look like you have made any effort to determine how much Hydrogen this apparatus is actually producing. What makes you think you are producing an 8:1 ratio of Hydrogen to Oxygen? Where is all that Oxygen going? You are putting ~18W into the system. If you measured the rate of Hydrogen production you would be able to give some indication of the efficiency of your plant. As it stands it looks like you increased the size of a child's science fair project for no gain in knowledge.

  • Yes, the applied potential maintained across the 4 anode - cathode pairs.
