Well, he was doing electrolysis with just a frayed wire but now uses a diode in a test tube of water.  Yes, just like Jeanna could add more and more leds to her Jeana circuit JT and the amp draw went down, Dr. Stiffler has found something similar with using a diode in the water.  The more he adds, it does not increase the power requirement and yet he gets more and more gas and now, ONLY hydrogen.  I really do not understand this.  Also, there is not connection to the diode at all so yes, kind of like the SEC and the AV plug with an led on it I suppose.

Thanks for  the link

I will have to look into  trying that once I get a few other projects done.

It does look like  a better way to make connections for HHO
I wonder if the diode is really needed......... I am thinking that  any metal object would work

I have no idea about the hydrogen only thing.
It doesn't seem possible.......but there it is.

It is a very strange thing that is happening with these exciter circuits.  I am actually back working with them and have found some very interesting effects.  The way that I understand this circuit is that the AV plug/led/cap what ever is a closed loop circuit that is independant of the exciter circuit and therefore actually run mostly on the potential energy of the exciter circuit.  This is why you can add more and more AV circuits without changing the input power requirements on the exciter circuite and in some case bring the ma's draw down.

what is the best way to mausere the output voltage of a pick up coil with a dmm i wont to see instent power not what i can build up in a cap ty

Not sure what you are asking, my exciter circuit is a lot different from the Dr. but mine will charge up 10-100uf almost instantly but can also charge 1000-10,000 in a short time.  Using a DMM or a scope I connect in the usual way.  I have not looked at total voltage yet but I know it can light a neon (1 side) with an AV plug and no cap so you're looking at 80-90v I would think.

Hope this helps.
