You need to match the voltage with how many cells you'll have to get optimal power usage versus oxyhydrogen output. It should be in the 1.25-2.5 volts per cell range. So, divide your input voltage by the number of cells to find out how much voltage you'll have per cell.

Oh, do tell, you sound like an expert on the matter.

That device does work, but it isn't a massive energy saver because modern most appliances already compensate for power factor and it will only work on circuits that are connected one buss on your breaker/fuse box.

Inside it has capacitors/inductors that help compensate for power factor from unregulated devices. This reduces electric use.

But, like I said previously, this device is bollocks in the 21st century. It'd be great for the 1980s when next to nothing you use in your home corrected for power factor. It isn't a snake oil device, it is just a nearly useless device today.

Yeah, I'd recommend a plastic container and plastic lid. lol
