dammit eli... don't make me try this... the whole thing was a joke... the copper plates would tarnish and contaminate the water too... maybe silver plates :-) possibly gold plated :-) i'm not worried about the breakdown... just want to get a clue if the whole thing is actually possible... and maybe get my ears on it for a day or two if it actually works... think of the threads... evian is smooth... pelligrino has a bubbly edge... and if you hav the $$$ cristal is the way to go... fwiw alcool has a lesser DC than water, but it is more stable wrt impurities... this is the diy fourum... so why not diy caps??? some sort of sealed system would be needed for anything liquid... hmmm batteries use plates and liquids... how different are they than caps... maybe they could be adapted...dave
