I finally obtained a safe alternative that is working at the moment. I am getting sparks and all. Thanks for the idea.

Isanyone aware of reports of a relatively low volume open to the air glasscell exploding and causing injury or damage to the surroundings? Most of the jar volume will likely be filled with a mix of hydrogenand oxygen plus room air. I have not calculated the amount ofenergy contained within the captured hydrogen since a bad calculationcould be dangerous. Please give me guidance before I reconnect thisbeast as it now is on standby. This paper looks at various combinations http://conference.ing.unipi.it/ichs2005/Papers/120001.pdf H2-Air -- lower explosion limit is 4.3 mole% H2 H2-O -- lower explosion limit is 4 mole% H2 Can you put in a baffle or something to keep the H and O separate? Maybe a U-tube would be better than a jar.
