temp. relate to amps. relate to output?

What effect does one have on the other and the other in your builds? Thanks.

it's really a snowball effect.

As the temp. rises the water becomes more conductive. Because it's more conductive the amperage draw goes up, because the amps go up the production of HHo goes up as well. because it's producing more the heat rises... and it starts all over again.

with the right amount of electrolite you can get the temp to ballance out at whatever current you want to draw.
unfortunatly we have not set a current*electrolite=temp formula yet.

What would be happening if the amps went down as the temp slowly increased while adding more electrolyte.

You would control the snowball then... It's what PWM are currently used for... if you limit it enough for the heat to stop rising but production does not suffer than you have ballanced your system to produce the same reguardless of cell tempature. this is a good idea to do although smaller setups do not need this.

although a constant current source maybe a better alternative for this.
