Yeah His Tucker cell is a great design.
I wondered about the tabs leaking also. A similar design i had the tabs just sealed from the gasket material but that was with very thin electrodes (and thick soft gaskets). I was thinking using thicker electrodes, you could simple bevel the sides of the tabs at a 60 -70 degree angle to a knife edge, and they might seal without any sealant.
b1jetmech,
I really like that cell to have a reservoir and cell together is real practical to me.
Do you think the beveling might work for a seal with out sealant?
Do you think your MMW is the same for nickle and SS?
