#7 Debugging the +NNNNN- dry cell

I couldn't get my dry cell to produce yesterday until I rewired it to -NN+NN- running about 4 teaspoons of KOH flake in about a liter and a half of water.

Today, I wanted to measure the voltage drop across my plates, however, my multimeter decided to quit. Instead, I rewired as +NNNNN- and kept adding KOH until I got fair production.

At 6 teaspoons(ish) she was pulling 5 amps and producing. Went up to 10 teaspoons of KOH flake and she was pulling 7 amps and producing pretty well. Could not measure the output as my electrolyte tank is now leaking like a sieve.

Hi, can you say where you got the bottle and wire cage from, I have been searching but cant find uk supply of these, thanks.

I got them from an auto spares store, it's a coolant expansion tank. I wouldn't bother with it though as it leaked terribly.

I ended up using a piece of plumbers pipe with end caps to make a reservoir and bubbler.

beautiful, does it heat up?

[PainlessHHO]

If you go with 5 neutrals and a 0.040" gap (PVC shower pan liner from Lowes) it will stay at a decent temp (mine runs around 115F) and amp draw will be very consistent.

If you do the above and experience heat issues, you need more plates.

very cool!

Now I am really looking forward to seeing your output and MMW tests.

Imagine about 2 or 4 of these running in parallel.

;)

I'll have some output videos posted either tomorrow or wednesday. Performed some tests today with a 13 plate -NNNNN+NNNNN- setup, 1.25 LPM at 20 amps.

How are you telling the car ECU to inject less petrol/diesel in proportion to the amount of hydrogen being injected? If you are not them you will be using more fuel due to the electrical load on the alternator and engine. By putting hydrogen in to the air intake you are not really doing anything, too much and the fuel will not ignite. So how are you saving fuel if the SAME or MORE is being injected while that device is in use? That is one thing no one can explain so far.

i am very curious as to how the liquid is circulated through the plates to get back to the bubbler it looks like the plates a solid and a intake on one side and a outlet on the other. Makes me got humm

[DavidAlshNZ]

what are the sizes on those plates?

And thats 7 plates right?

ptf tape, white plumber tape, would stop water leaking if upside down, gas tho !!!, debatable, you have a head of water between the gas and lid, "then at bottom", drill lid, pipe up thro to top of unit, might seal and be ok,,,

[fuelban]

thanks painless, yeh i do know what you are saying, i found a lot of air tight lids leak with HHO gas, but if you turned it upside down, and put a connection in the bottom, 2 make the bottom the top as it were,,, ???, worth a shot as you got the thing any how...LOL....

let me know if you get arround to it...

What are you using for gasket material between the plates?

[kdkinen]

thank you sir :)
