Cooking with HHO , my experiments so far

[triffid]

I really am glad to see others here want to do cooking and heating with HHO.Its not the only way to go but its part of the solution.If a person can make fuel at home safely then his or her heating bills can drop a lot.I had two acres in arkansas where I set up two bricks,set an iron skillet across them,and cooked breakfast many times burning wooden twigs from a brushpile that was there when I bought the property.JD's setup brought back a lot of memories for me.I burned a lot of wood from that brushpile.I had cooked many a pan of eggs and bacon.I forgot to ask you JD what electrolyte you use in your homemade unit.I prefer baking soda solution myself.It is safe,safe,safe to use in the home.Triffid

Baking soda solution is cheap too!Triffid

Using baking soda is dangerous , it creates carbon monoxide and it greatly shortens the life span of your plates it will eat them up ....I use sodium hydroxide ,its safe , I probably have less in my electrolyte  mix than they have in a bottle of dish washing liquid and it also used in some cooking recipes ..If used properly its very very safe ...not  to mention when it has been run a while it turns into sodium hydroxide anyway ....and it really gunks up a cell .....2 thing I never put in my cells one is tap water and the other is baking soda ..

Thanks for the info JD,

I will have to check out your videos, but for now a couple quick questions for you.  Where do you get your electrolyte?  and if you already mentioned i forgot, but do you use a drycell or what is your cell design?  I would like to make a drycell like woodpecker's design.

Thanks,
Mark

I use 100% sodium hydroxide and got it from Lowes ....
My cell is a dry cell form  with 72 6"x6" plates  split into 2 36 plate sections but all wired together running off rectified house current
304L 16 gauge stainless steel
I use 1/16" neoprene rubber 60- 70 durometer rated for a max of 214degrees F
1/2" high density cutting board for endplates
I use a top hole only design .

Woodpecker has a good design , pretty much most of the dry cells are basically all the same to some extent ...Most people use top and bottom holes , I prefer top only ..

Maybe this info will help ya man ..
