Dear Aussie Guy, Have you studied thoroughly the two Piantelli patents- from 1995 and 2010? Have you read what I wrote about Piantelli on my blog? (adress in signature) He has built the cells. You will need vacuum of 10 exp minus 5-6 Torrs, i.e a tandem of a diffusion and a turbomolecular vacuum pumps.
