Wet cell set up (need help)

[hhofox]

Ok sounds good I will re route my line as you said, I have it running into the air cleaner right now. It is throtelbody not carb but im still hoping i can avoid the electronics part of it.And so far at 1/2 lpm I am not seeing any improvement other than a cleaner idle. So do you think I should sand blast and seal the edges of my plates or is that a waste of time? And as for plates -nnnnn+ or -nnnnn+nnnnn- which would produce better? Thanks again for your time and help everone.

If you are using a dry cell, be sure to put a 'T' in the reactor's water supply line between the reservoir and the reactor. This 'T' will bring in air, so your unit does not break from the pressure. Air inlet end of the 'T' should have an air check valve to ensure that air can only be sucked in, and water cannot flow out.
If you have a bubbler jar, then you can just adjust the bubbler to allow enough air to come through, but not let liquid get into the engine.

Many people say that media blasting helps improve HHO production, but it's expensive. I just cross-hatched mine with heavy sand paper. Sealing is also good, but I didn't do it (saved a bit of hassle, since I cannot find weld-on 16).

-nnnnn+nnnnn- would produce better, since it would mean more surface area, among other things. You'd end up with a cooler, more efficient cell.

Give these things a try and then let us know what's up. There are a few more things you can do as well, but just take it one step at a time.

Ok thanks,as far as the T goes,even if it's a wet cell should I put one on anyway,gas is still going out with nothing replacing it correct? I'm going to start it tonight when I get home from work,I will let u all know how I make out. I hope to hit that 1 lpm this weekend and with all the tips from all of u I just may hit my goal earlier then expected. Thanks.

Hi all Well hear is my update on my wet cell,I changed my plates from +nnnn-nnnn+nnnn- to -nnnnn+nnnnn- and sand blasted my plates (then straitened them) then cleaned and put it together and sealed the edges with liquid electrical tape. Now I'm in the middle of conditioning the plates I am running them at 13v at 1.5a for about two hours now. The cell seems to be working much better even at 1.5a it is producing about 1/8 lpm so I still have lots of room for more electrolyte to get my amps and production up. How long should I run them at low amps to condition them? Thanks

Well I'm back to the drawing board I took the cell up to 15a then it was starting to get a little warm (120f) so I stopped adding NaOh and it creeped up to 16.8a after an hour of running and once again 1/2 lpm same as before only this time it took a lot more NaOh to get there.

Hmmm.... Where are you testing this? In a car, or on a bench? There is a lot of difference between yields from the two you know. The car gives better results, so just try that and see how much of a difference there is okay?

[Jay30]

This was bench test results but I use a variable power supply and set it to what my vehicle puts out on that connection. But I did take your advise and tryed it on the vehicle anyway but it was the same maybe a more honest 1/2 lmp but very close to the same.
