Hi guys, just wondering how much KOH do I have to use as my electrolyte? I have a half-gallon reservoir. Also What do you use in the bubbler if I have KOH as much electrolyte? Should I get vinegar as some people here have used? Thanks!

u can use vinegar or water.

and how much KOH is on how many amps you want to draw, each cell is a little diff.

start with a little KOH and add and mix more in until desired amps, try to measure by weight and see how much u use and how much water u used.

NaOH is OK , KOH will eat aluminum .

Do u use all aluminium or stainless steel? I think stainless steel is better coz it's corrosion resistant.

I use SS in my cell, however, most modern engines contain aluminum parts.
