Carbon Contact Plates for Hydrogen Generators Boosters

What do you think about this item:

Do you think this carbon plate will last forever or they will get consumed over time?

Hmm,
my experience with graphite is, that there comes
black flakes off the graphite during electrolysis...
But maybe it was so, cause I used the lower dense
"Blaehgraphite" plates...

But I always saw, that in saltwater the stainless steel corroded
very easily from the wet graphite..
So watch out ! I already have a few small
holes in my kitchen sink, cause I had graphite mixed with NaCl-saltwater
laying on the stainless steel kitchen sink..
Also if you use stainless steel as the contacts for graphite you will
etch holes into the stainless steel bolts, so I don?t think that this will
last very long, maybe just with destilled water and using high voltage
to generate HHO, but probably not,if you use much electrolyte with it...

Thanks, you seam to know more about it..

I asked to the buyer but I did not receive any reply yet. I wanted to know if carbon was good to use but if
you need to change it once its depleated its better to go for SS plate

You can also ask Dr. Stiffler,
as he is using also graphite rods here:

I use those same pucks for my Arc Magnagas system .I have tried them for HHO but I like multiple
316L  Stainless plates better.
