Thank you Jetta for your idea!

I was thinking about how to make the positive contact connection pass through the SS pot. (The pot itself is -)

Jetta suggested that the electrical contact wire could pass down the gas output tube.

Combining Jetta's idea to my problem, this is what I thought of:

Obtain a threaded SS tube about 1/4" -1/2" in diameter and about 2" long.

Anyone know where to get it?

(similar to the threaded tube used in desk lamps)

Pass the tube through the pot with an insulator/seal and nuts/washers on either side.

Connect the gas output to the tube.

Here's the trick: Connect a SS electrical contact to the tube with another nut inside the pot. Connect a copper wire to the tube with a nut on the outside.

The cell would have only 1 pass through to worry about!

Thanks again for the inspiration Jetta.

i used to work at a lamp store and u grabbed my thought rite out of my head... the threaded SS is prolly 302 grade or 304 grade and comes in 1/8'' 1/4'' and 1/2'' diameters... sounds like a safe bet to me... give it a go
