Will you be treating all your plates to get the "bubble"  effect now?

And yes one of of my  units made up of 12 cells will light up a 2.1 v LED  25ma very brightly. In my last test I kept one at maximum brightness for 7 days before I disconnected it.
I will be out for the day.

Bill that's great news
any chance of a video showing that LED setup ?
keep up the great work,hopefully the beginning of something big

First thank you all for the encouragement.
Yes I have been treating all the plates for this "bubble effect" which appears to be increasing the voltage.
I will show some additional videos but not right away. I am beginning today to build a much larger unit to do a lot more than just light LED and yes I plan to incorprate a joule thief.
The cost to  assemble one of these modules is incredibly inexpensive at about 25 cents each.
Since the current increases in direct proportion to plate size this allows me a lot of latitude
in its development.
Tonight I am going to run a test to see if there is a temperature change in the water. I will have 2 other open containers of same size as controls and see if the one holding the module has a delta T.
If it does maybe I have some kind of LERN effect , I really do not know yet. Must likely there will be no change in temp.
Since at this time the power is so low compared to Rossi's E-Cat if there is a LERN effect maybe I could call it the E-Kitty (LOL!!!)

Hi Bill,
well done.
But to be completely sure, that it is not galvanic,
you also must be sure, that the powder you put onto the
plastic foil does not suck in the moisture from the air and/or the
water.

Did you try it yet with other connections, like poking 2 graphite
pencils onto the foil´s surface ?

2. Does the voltage decrease the lower the disctance is of the connection
on the foil ?

3. Do you have on both sides of the plastic foil this powder and does each clip
lead make contact to both sides ?

4. Is this powder expensive to make or are the ingredients cheaply available ?

5. Is the coating process expensive and does it need much heat = external energy ?

Many thanks for your videos so far.
Maybe you can answer my questions in a new video ?

Regards, Stefan.

Hi Stefan
1. At this point I am still determining if this is a galvanic reaction. I need to continue to remove all the
components that would create a galvanic reaction. Actually a galvanic reaction is not that bad if that what it turns out to be as long as I can limit or eliminate the component degregation-wll have to see on this one. Is it sucking moisture from the water or air-that to be determined.
2. No decrease in voltage from clip placement
3. I am not using plastic foil , it is a hard piece of clear plastic that I cut with my band saw.
4. The coating is on one side and the clip will thus make contact with clear plastic and on the otherside the coating on the plastic.
5. The coating applied with a brush, it will air dry in about an hour I have only used a heat lamp to speed up the drying, leaving it on a little to long created the bubbling effect. The cost of each module is around 25 cents.
