amperage drop when adding electrolite

[overtaker]

The amps only dropped about one amp. It started about 6.5 amps and dropped to about 5.5 amps. and stayed there. It didn't make sense to me why it would drop at all. We didn't measure production but it clearly made more bubbles after the deluted electrolyte was added. (drain cleaner)

What metal are you using inside the electrolyzer?

What are the ingredients to the drain cleaner you are using?

hey dennis, have you ever tired to just keep adding electrolite? or did you always just get it to where you wanted it to be(amps) and leave it there?

We were using 316 ss and the drain cleaner... sodium hydroxide 28% and potassium 1% the rest water so I'm told. The brand is INSTANT POWER main line cleaner.
