KOH VS. Baking Soda, etc.
I've heard that KOH is by far the best choice for electrolytes due to it's performance. I went and tested my dad's cells. He has two cells in series totaling 7 amp draw and putting out a sad liter per 8 minutes and at 135 degrees. The best I've done on mine is one liter per 5 minutes at 17 amps and 120 degrees.
I'm telling him that I've heard that KOH is the best only because of what others say, but I personally don't have any experience. I know it's toxic, but does it corrode engine parts like some say?
Will KOH provide more production than baking soda at a lower temp and lower amp draw?
What are all the downsides to KOH that you can possibly think of?
Give a man a match, and he’ll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life.
