    G'day J-Man.
    Yes, you still need an electrolyte in a dry cell.

    The stored voltage you are seeing after applying power to your dry cell is quite normal, rather like a capacitor.
    In a wet cell,...

    That generator is configured for 12volts, not 24 volts.

    You need to use 12v or reconfigure it something like +nnnnnnnnnnn- for 24volts.

    Keeping it simple, each cell is made up of two electrodes (plates, tubes, wires, whatever). You need one electrode to be positive and the other negative (relative to each bother).

    Yes.
    That may explain why some of your current measurements seem odd.

    Using perforated plate instead of solid plate may allow more current to flow in the cell. However, I don't believe that this is due to any "greater surface area".

    Hi Andy,
    Your starting point sounds a lot like mine (some years ago), an electrician, who's building a "wet" cell out of left-overs.:)

    It's not which On Board Diagnostics protocol the car uses that makes tuning for HHO a pain.
    If it's still looking for feedback from O2 sensors, you should still have the same problem.
