My current testing, with no chemicals to say in the cell I made.  12 volts with  frequencies from up to 40Khz (I have not tried under 4Khz yet but will today before I re-program the microcontroller).  But 4K-40+Khz and no change in gas production. 

Next test will be change duty cycle and see what I get.  If no change in production, I was going to add a boost power supply and see what I got (ranging the frequency and duty cycle again all over again).

I have a lot of H and O2 coming out, not enough to run a 5HP 4 stroke motor (well I can not seem to get the gas in the manifold without problems.. 

Biggest problem I have is gas in the line from the bubbler keeps blowing up the bubbler.  And $10 for a one way value at an air conditioner parts store I passed not knowing how good it would work on this type gas.

So I went back to a cup of lite soapy water, watch the bubble per second and then light them.  The bubble count and ringing in my ears is my testing method for now.  Sounds like an odd way, but until I get a one way gas valve.  My kids loved the bubbler blowing up though (they were a long way away but heard and saw it without a problem).

I think I may have found the part you need to save you next bubbler from failing.

Its too bad too hear about your bubblers, but it made for a great story.
Hope everyone was ok though! Please keep us updated on your research.

hi guys. im new here
i found a website which might interest you
i dont know if youve heard of bingo fuel
if not, here is the website:

i havent read the entire content of the website
this reactor uses 30volts AC (high amps)
its not high voltage but it produces an arc just like a high voltage would.
the water used has a little mixture of fuel.
but if you just want to split plain water with the plasma or arc
go to "how to build a cheap and simple aquafuel generator"

http://jlnlabs.imars.com/bingofuel/index.htm

so what do you think?

This uses 30v AC to create a plasma underwater, and the carbon rod
erodes to give H2 and CO. Naudin claims 400% over Faraday electrolysis
production figures, and has the gas drving a Honda Generator, but it
not clear how much power it is generating.
An interesting process. The sacraficial carbon electrode is a nuisance.
Presumably, if stainless steel electodes were to be used, then H2 and
O2 might be given off.
