Hi "Ole Bob", Thanks for the reply.
I'm trying to figure out a way I could easily clean the silver oxide from an anode that is shaped the way you describe. A multi-anode setup may prove easier for logistic purposes. As for stirring, I've been swishing the wires around when I clean them. I'm thinking of using a cheap battery operated clock motor hooked up to the second hand gear. I shouldn't need very much turbulence should I? Best wishes, Andy * From: Robert Berger Hi Andy, 1. Yes, cathode goes to the negative terminal, and the anode to the positive terminal. You could cut down the cathode but you would do better is you made the anode about 30 " long in a serpentine formof about 4.5 " long up,down,up, down etc. See if you can't find a piece of plexiglass for a lid to support it. You really should add stirring of some sort. 2. Leave the HVAC process alone as there are several pitfalls in it. I have done a lot of work with it but am now abonding it for the multi- anode LVDC process. "Ole Bob"
