    Titanium plates

    Hi I have been following things on this site for a while now and I want to ask a quick question about titanium plates.

    Would there be any issue in using a combination of mmo coated titanium and bare titanium plates in a sealed dry cell?

    Cheers

    I am just building my first HHO unit and will be using titanium for the anodes. Titanium is very corrosion resistant so I thought I would try that first.

    I have been metal working and machining for years now and have great sources for most metals.

    Brent,
    care to share your resources for obtaining SS and ti. I would like to have another source for my plates. Thanks in advance.

    Dear all,

    I have all Ti plates to make -NNNN+NNNN-, but it works only for about 1 minute then the current went down from 10 Amps to 0.5 Amp only? please kindly share your experiences, and please tell me what is wrong, Thanks.

    I understand everyones desire to get away from Stainless because of possible hexchrom. Everyone needs to understand that a cell made with plain Titanium will simply not work. The anode will quickly be rendered non conductive. Titanium is probably the worst choice to make an efficient device from. It is a worse conductor than stainless and quickly quits drawing power.

    Nickel 200 is the only real choice if you want to migrate away from stainless. The obvious issue is cost. The best solution if you don't want to spend the money for nickel is to overbuild a stainless cell. As long as you don't over amp stainless it will be very safe.

    Up to 14.5 MPG with no enhancers. Still testing the effects of lots of HHO and no electronic enhancers.

    Thank you Larry,

    For the neutral cathode plates, are you using Nickel plates too?
