Aphasiac's 12HP Hydrogen Project

lol. See, I knew you guys were using high volts DC current, but never questioned the obvious... I just thought it sounded cleaner and easier than having car batteries stacked ten high.  And yes, I understand the whole concept of pulsing, although I also thought I read that some people are switching the polarity to improve output?

I borrowed a suggestion (I think from IH's thread) to turn the cell upside down. Nice. I can't find the reference now, but thank you to whoever suggested it.

Linnard Griffin HHO thread... Great new video there of RR2's closed loop.

The ac will short, but if you put a Diode in you have that covered, a rectifier will work on ac mains( in house) but not with an inverter, at least not with mine, cheap diodes at radio shack... and rectifiers, but not much in the amps dept. I only ad this because you say you have tried the inverter... this is some what gutsy...(dangerous) caution is advised, high voltage ac, or dc can... well obviously, kill you. thats all I am saying, love the project!

AC driven polarity switching on this type of Cell seems to have no positive effects at any frequency I have tried. Straight brute force DC works very well. Now of course this is much different from AC frequency riding a DC backbone like you see in the clipped alternator systems.
I would just start out with a rectifier like this  to get you some nice high voltage DC going .
