Brown’s Gas Electrode - Series Cell Design

To be technical it doesn’t matter what material your electrodes are made of, just make your electrolyzer common ducted; one gas output hose.
The material of the electrodes matters regarding corosion. If you use copper your water will turn green as it oxidizes extremely quickly. The simply solution is to use a corosion resistant material. Just use stainless steel. The higher the nickel content of the stainless steel, the more corosion resistent the electrodes will be.
As for using electrodes versus plates, if you want an efficient electrolyzer do not use electrodes. Use plates and connect many cells in series. You want no more than 2.2 Volts per cell. Cell in series experience voltage division, therefore add enough plates to reduce the voltage according to the power supply you are using.
Electrode electrolyzers are antequated and inefficient. The series cell design by Yull Brown is the most efficient electrolyzer design period. This is why common ducted oxyhydrogen is called Brown’s Gas nowadays, and not Rhodes Gas. William Rhodes was the first person to patent a common ducted electrolyzer, but he used cylindrical cells, which is relatively innificient. William Rhodes confirmed that Yull Brown’s series cell design is superior.
To clarify things, Brown’s Gas is just a name for common ducted oxyhydrogen. Oxyhydrogen is a 2:1 proportion of hydrogen and oxygen. The common ducting just means having one gas output hose.
Cheers to simplicity
