Ya, I used potassium carbonate from a wine brewing company and got instant
brown "rust bloom". Since then I've realized that 12v is way too high for my latest electrode set (tubular), so I may...

thanks alot mr. hotstuff... and what are YOU offering everyone on the subject of vinegar? (or any electrolyte... damn, I'll havta watch that spelling!)
Does anyone know about the hydrogen and oxygen...

Got pretty good results, visually, with 1 cup distilled vinegar in 1/2 gal distilled water, and my tubular (Myers type) electrode array at 15a. That was cold, so less vinegar is probably possible. ...

Yes, I've been thinking that vinegar IS the safe alternative. My new array with ten 12oz 304 cups cranks well at 1/16 spacing and 2 neutrals between hots (at 1/8tsp NaOH per 1/2gal distilled) and...

Ya, I've used vinegar with dissappointing results, but I'm going to give it another go with a new electrode assembly; this time 1/16 spacing. It's been said that the vinegar goes with the water...

Well, I finally got some potassium carbonate from a wine making supply; the short take on how it worked out, is that it was just CRUMMY! Instantly!
Once again, if people are recommending it, they...

Am now running vinegar(1/4 cup) with about 1/2 tsp trisodium phosphate to boost the amps and bubbles, but am not happy about the brown crap again.
Have potassium carbonate coming.(used to raise the...

Where is everybody?! Been hearing about potassium carbonate (used as a buffering agent in wine making). The big boys are using it in their fuel cells... might be a good one. Potassium phosphate...

Ya, your mentor at this site would be the guy... however I'll kept hangin in for more input on electrolytes... there's another mystery electrolyte on ebay now, that claims totally clean results! On...

Ya bud... I was reading on ebay that someone thought potassium phosphate was great enuf to try to market. I couldn't find any locally and didn't want to pay shipping otherwise... someone jump in! ...

Ya, I'm running it as an electrolyte... not as conductive as KOH, but more conductive than vinegar or citric acid. my new electrode set will get the magic 1/8" spacing, so the potent stuff may not...

I'm using trisodium phosphate and making lots of bubbles... any input from anybody?? It's running clean after about 5 days.

oh man... that 2nd thread to ebay really sounds good! PT Barnum wants to know more about it first... like what the hell is it?? We all need some miracles in this coming economy... keep up the good...

Distilled vinegar really sucks for bubble output. Scrap that!
There is citric acid available online, but the shipping cost is 3x the product
cost for Mrs. Wages brand canning type... Maybe...

ya man, Hans H again... out of town for awhile. I have a 17 (perf)plate design with 1 neutral between ea pos and neg... straight 12v. thing is I don't know the grade of stainless, but it is totally...

Howdy Folks: this hho experimenter has been running KOH for maybe a month now and I'm still getting the dang brown bloom that I had with NaOH. I can drain off to a degree, but I don't like it at...

Hey guys, remember to take a magnet into the store with you. Any iron content at all would probably be bad for the normal electrolytes. On the other hand I did see ss wool on ebay... might be worth...
