What kind of electrolyzer do you have?

first incorporate a drain on your reservior so you can drain small amount into a container to mix your solution when you increase the mixture. start with 8 Tablespoon let it cool. Eventually you will end up with about 10-12 tblspn.

The way you to do that is:
mix the 8 tblspn run your cell with that for 5 minutes and measure the amps. If you have not reach the amps desire, drain some in a container then add a 1 tblspn.

Fill the reservior with that, then run it again for 5 minutes. do this until you reach the 15-20 amps.

what I found is mix the initial solution and let it cool, I usually do that the night before I test a cell.

-NNNNN+. if you use what I mentioned in your cell it will consumed amps. configure you cell like this:
