Other possibility, keep the cathode and anode supports flat and use a separate "piece of polyethylene that will act as a spring clip to retain the cathode and anode supports against opposite cell walls" as described in the Galileo protocol (pages 10 and 11 of the TGP0-Lab Protocol V5.1b.pdf file in http://www.newenergytimes.com/v2/projects/tgp/TGP0-V5.1b%20Package.zip ) to also ensure the waterproofing pressurization of the internal cathode side sandwich (cathode support +Mylar+gasket) against the wall.
