What wrong with my reactor :-(
Hi,
Could you help me please and give me your opinion !!!!
I followed all the advice I was recommended
reactor with 2 stacks (-NNNNNN+NNNNNN-)
my plates are SS316L and media blasted
the holes (input and output) are insulates with "red super glue" (something like crazy glue)
plates were clean with aceton, passivate with citric acid (10%) and always handle with glove
This picture is from spare plate

Active area with gasket and insulate: ± 17.5 square inches
Each endplate have 1 input hole and 1 output hole - Endplate are in EPDM 1/2"
Electrolyte 18% -> distilled water "by steam" with NaOH
Test #1 (with power supply)
My voltage is: 11.43 volts (1.77 volts per cell - each individually measured)
When I start the reactor, the production is very minimal. Just a bubble by two seconds for 15 - 20 secondes. Suddenly, the production becomes hyperactive "wow!" for 3-4 seconds and then everything returns as originally for 15-20 seconds.
Here is a video of the poor production

Test #2 (with my car)
My voltage is: 14.3 volts (2 volts per cell - each individually measured)
When I start the reactor, the production is minimal. 1 or 2 bubbles by second. Suddenly, the production becomes hyperactive "wow! really impressive" for 4-5 seconds and then everything returns as originally.
IMPORTANT
1) I have reversed the position of the central plate "+". So the input hole of the central plate is to left in contrast to all other plates that the inputs holes are to the right.
2) In my plates, the input hole are in the right side (bottom) and in my endplates, the input holes are in the center (bottow also) "see video"
What wrong ??
The product I use for insulte the hole ?
The orientation of my centrale plate (+) ?
Me ?
Could you help me, I am desperate :eek:
Thank in advance
