It's all good. We research, we test, we share what we've found, and we test each other's findings. That's the right process and exactly the way it should work if we want to correctly advance our understanding.
If I said Nitrile in that video I mispoke. They were EPDM. I chose it beause the design required a distance for the e-lite to travel over exposed gasket material and chemical resistance was supposed to be better with EPDM. I am positive that I used EPDM there. I first started with Neoprene, Then went to Nitrile, Then for that test used EPDM. For the cell I am building now I am using Nitrile because I can not let it get very hot. Teflon is what I have been using the past few months but due to cost it is overkill unless I am running extreme heat.

2008 Nissan Frontier 4X4 Nismo. 12 MPG baseline with my normal commute and heavy stop and go daily driving. Generator installed and working on 3/29/2009
Up to 14.5 MPG with no enhancers. Still testing the effects of lots of HHO and no electronic enhancers.
