hey gus... its been a crazy summer for me... how goes the beast?
koya, I did exactly that when tapping I only ran it to about 1/4 the way actually. just enough to give me a good tight fit but be sure it was lined up to the hole properly. As for trimming them I...
ok thanx i will check it out.
ok well while i have it apart i will use more teflon and gorrilla glue. I am just tired of almost getting done then finding problems. Thanks again guys for your nonstop help:D
Ok so I built a new tank and it doesnt leak much but it does some. But the big deal is that almost all of the plastic fittings in the plastic plates are leaking. I used 1/2 inch HDPE cutting boards...
I was planning to take a hose hooked to the system and pierce it the probes on my multimeter at right at 6 inches apart. measure the resistance. I have a very nice meter and figured I could easily do...
Well not really lost but just used to create heat instead of gas. That's why the wet cells are less efficient than the dry cells are. But in looking at my setup I am going to try to see what...
I have successfully tapped through the side of solid pvc pipe in the past on an rov i built a few years back. But yes this tank leaks due to the fact it is a foam core pipe. I am building a whole new...
Well Gus it wa sa good thing I heeded your warning. I filled with distilled water to check for leaks and before I could get a half gallon in it was leaking out :eek:
But it also proved that my...
I would like to see a topic where we can go discuss the advantages and ways to build unipolar and discuss it vs. bipolar and so on.
But I think the first one I would like to see would be a newbie...
Gus that looks great! Now just to wrestle it in place and bolt it up. Then try to convince the cops its not a meth lab or anything. LOL. But you know we all gotta keep them on their toes. :D:eek:
Well I worked around the problems on the tank and got the rest mounted in the car last night. I have employed a friend to work on this with me as it has become an insane amount of labor we kinda work...
Yeah Gus, Its just a guesstimate that it cost that much over budget. But Also lets remember I started on a budget too low to build a bipolar, and have had to go back and rebuild main components...
Well guys I got it mounted in the car for the last time and have most the wiring done. I now have a series of relays to control the unit as I want to try out a few ways of control it. I want to try...
From what I have read Nickel 200 18 gauge is the best.
Then stainless steel 316L 18 gauge. This is the common standard around here.
Then finally some people to save money use 304 stainless...
Gus,
Does this mean there was no point in building my setup? I built my cell purely to cut out amp leakage and make it more efficent. If you are not sure what I am talking about, Its the post MY...
I got bored and decided to guestimate a couple things about the system at hand. Mainly because I am bored and can't sleep. I am not saying I agree with this method but to each their own and sometimes...
Well I have the groups wired and mounted, the tank built and mounted, and the hoses cut and run. I also got it all in the trunk and placed where I want it. All that's really left is to get the hose...
Well guys I have finished the puzzle that has become my dry cells. I have attached a couple pics. I also have the tank finished and the bubblers done but I am not so proud of them so I will see how I...
Welcome to the forum! I know alot of other guys will have advice for you but I would like to suggest you look at the videos in the newbie corner topic. The web address is

Iger13 How many volts are you running. If it is over 8-9 you may want to consider another plate or two per cell. But you need to know that adding plates wont get you more amps as much as it will just...
Hey Gus just wondering. What is the weight of this thing, approx.
Also How is it coming along? Any new progress?
Well I got the unit ready to install in the car. Before I did I wanted to check for leaks. I got a leak at every hole I had threaded. I used thread tape but the cutting boards I got were too thin and...
I believe one place the gains may come from is the small amounts of water vapor that are getting into the chamber through our systems.
By the vapor entering the combustion chamber it turns to...
This is a great idea. If I build this design again I might do that. The advantage to doing it all on cnc this time was the cnc machine was inside in a basement at a buddy of mines vs. the drill press...
