cool cell. I have a smiliar one, and i have crazy heat problems. Need to experiment with neutral plates, i hear they help heat problems, not sure how though. Tell me how it goes! hopefully you don't have heating issues.
Great, ive just started the 2 gens in series, they are both 1 litre glass jars, am working with distelled water and 2 teaspoons of baking soda in each, currunt amp draw is 1,5 amps and the amount of bubbles is they same as one gen alone with a 6 amp draw.
this is the setup! now im gonna try adding more baking soda so i can raise amp draw to about 4amps.
Ok guys, 20 minutes of activity!
Results
Bubbles are the same as the begining
The temp of the water has gone up 2° celcius
The amp draw range is from 1,5 to 1,7
Tomorrow ill think about setting up another 1/2 litre jar and hook it up to the rest
Cheers
ok,
i just did a test now, these are the results
Started test
Temp water started at 23,4°c
current amp draw 0.7 amp
50ml per minute
Production is kinda slow, but if you look at the amp draw....not even 1 amp!!!And after 30 minutes at 12v the 2 gens are at 25°c
i know that i will be going nowhere with 50ml per minute, but if i can multiply that 50ml x 5, that would mean 250ml per minute with a 5 amp draw!
Sounds good to me
ok, now its been running for more than 1 hour! its bubbling more than before and the tempreture of the water in both gens is 29.5°C, the amp draw at the moment is 1,1
I think that hooking up more will do the job :-)
So any news? I was following your progress eagerly as I want to make one for my motorbike too! I am getting 20 new SS plates today so will be starting at the weekend. Your plates gap looks a bit wide, or is it just the picture?
at the moment i cannot proceed becuase the cell is using to many amps! im waiting for a pwm test! ill let you know about it
the gap is 6mm
Try less gap...say 2 to 3mm max then add some neutrals and drop the electrolyte level. Are you going to run this on a 7amp scooter battery? Cheers...... Oh this is my Scooter prototype cell +nn-nn+ What part of Italy are you in?
