hi all,
What material should I use for a HHO generator:bsdetector:? I would use aluminium because thats really easy and cheap for me to get but a lot of people use
stainless steel. What are the pros and cons?

Also. Should I use 2 different matterials on the positive and negative side and if so, why? (Question is also because i've seen people doing it.;-))

Regards,
Cecemel
 

The main problem is with the electrode where the oxygen is given off.This would cause any metal to oxidise, in the case of aluminium, would cause an insulator to form on the surface of the electrode ans reduce the current flow.
