1.1 Using the Battery Pack to Perform Electrolysis
Please remove the screw from cover of battery box using
a screw driver. Push and slide the cover and open the
battery box. Try NOT to touch the cables when you open
the cover.
Place two AA batteries as indicated, please note polarity.
Push and slide the battery box cover to closed position
and screw tightly into place using screw driver.
•
Make sure the switch on the battery box is in the
“off” position before you place the batteries into the box.
•
Avoid any contact between the battery and water.
•
WARNING: If the cable is short circuited the
batteries inside could become hot and potentially cause
burns, melting of parts, or create risk of fire.
1.2 Produce hydrogen (Electrolysis)
A fuel cell has both a negative (Hydrogen) and a positive (Oxygen) side. While using the
reversible fuel cell as an electrolyser it‘s important to make sure the polarities (red to
red & black to black) are correct otherwise the fuel cell can be permanently damaged.
