Finally, some fizz!

Well, I am going down the ss washer road. I have some ss washers and ss screws. I took a 3 inch peice of round plastic about 3'' tall and I started to run rows of washers down the side of it by screwing them in where they can all touch. So each row is different. +-+-+-. Anyhow, I had some old water I have out in the garage from prior tests, so I am really not sure what was in that water before hand. Anyhow, I hooked it up to a 12v battery, and things are working pretty good. Then, just to play I added 4 HEAPING table spoons of baking soda to the mix. It did not seem like it was getting too hot or anything. I hooked it up to my little 6amp battery charger and it burried the needle to the top. I could look a at the top and see bubbles of course and what looked like to me was gas. My water stayed semi clean and so on. So, I have a long road ahead of me, I am going to change up the cell design. I am going to keep the washers like they are but I need a smaller cylnder to fit in my housing I bought for it. But, anyhow, here are some quistions.

How much is TOO much electrolyte....hence baking soday? Also, is there anything better than that on the shelf I can buy? I was going to try epson salts too later on.

I plan on puting in some N washers too in the long run. I am just excited that I am finally get some results. I thought washers would be easey to work with, but not so much. Easey to obtain, but hard to place. Thanks for everyone's help.

How much is too much? Just depends on your desired amps draw.
