The downfalls of conventional electrolysis - and how to fix them

Gwandau,

A saturated solution is made by gradually mixing Sodium Hydroxide into water so that
the solution doesn't get to hot.

Do you say this for safety ?
Or does something get lost in the sauce if you mix it to aggressively [Hot]?

Thanks

Here's some practical experience.  They probably aren't mixing to 100% saturation.  Still, it told me alot in just the 3 minutes watching

@niofox
good video on mixing the lye.

@Gwandau
good advice. I know with using KOH over the years how dangerous it can be.
I agree that at this stage we only need to prove these claims with small steps. The fine tuning will come latter.
With the number of people replicating we will all soon know if his hypothesis is supported.
kind Regards

The pictures I posted took only 1 hour to build.

Parts (not counting the wire) were all purchased at Lowe's for under $50.

I think that's quite reasonable for a quick and easy setup to find out if it works.

At least it's not precision cut 316L stainless into concentric rings and some fancy Flux Capacitor and Time Shifting Toroidal Caduceus Coil for a Stan-Meyers/Joe Cell.

Could it be any simpler?
