    I used plain white rice, not sure of the variety. I just swiped it from the pantry and P/Oed the wife. Messed up her dinner plans that week. Each test was for about an hour of run time, on and...

    Here is another media that can be used to filter and dry out HHO. Rice. I have to thank my wife for that one. She used it to keep salt dry in humid climates. This one seems easy enough to try. ...

    Also true. It seems like a matter of which filter media one likes to replace and how complex of a system one wants. Charcoal, desiccant or aluminum. All require maintenance at some point. Of the...

    OK, noob question: How do you mix your 25% or 28% KOH? By weight or volume? I have mixed two ways. 1. By current draw of the cell and 2. Poured in crystals until the water was saturated.
