On December 31st I fixed the electronics issue/ripple problem. By simply moving the stuff away from the distributor it all worked fine. On the 1st I moved them permanently. On the 2nd I tried to get the new test tube cells ready for action.

Sunday (the 3rd) I tried to make a video...got a perfect Tidal Wave, had high voltage, had luke warm distilled water....and no bubbles. I was so pissed off I went and jumped in the frozen lake here and melted the whole lake. So there is something wrong with the tube cells now. God is sure making me work for this cheeseburger. Either the epoxy, the wire, or the ruffing up of the tube cell is causing it to malfunction. The only thing that happened was the water got hot. And all my tube cells have been ruffed up that I'm using. Stan NEVER EVER EVER mentions ruffing up or "conditioning" the tubes. That could be my whole problem.

Man, my Tidal Wave is so beautiful though!

So I'm on a quest to find the perfect tube cell. Is it tuned like a pipe organ and both tubes be 3 inches long? Impossible. Is the finish ruffed up? This could be causing the wave form to not bounce (propagate) in the wave guide properly. Are the tubes the exact same length? If so I'll have to weld some wire to the inside of the inner tube of the cell. Does epoxy work better than silicone? If so then I'm going to write a letter requesting the 100$ I've spent on epoxy back from the manufacturer. But as far as I know the spacers aren't an issue...??? But I can silicone some tube cells and remove the spacers after the silicone dries. I'm going to cry if it is the spacers....and something might get thrown.

I'm just amassed at what the next issue could be. I can only imagine the epoxy is leaking voltage, the ruffing up of the inner and outer tube cell could not be reflecting the wave form properly, the non-corrosive wire I'm using is too much resistance, or the spacer is bogus. I'm going to take apart the original test tube cell and inspect it for replication tomorrow. I have 3 different tube cells to make tomorrow. Sorry for the wait you guys, I'm as anxious as yall are I'm sure.

Wouldn't that be weird if the tube cells worked better the more shinny and smooth their facing surfaces were?? Stan did mention seamless stainless steel and all mine have seems.

Bring on the shinny tube cells and silicone for a spacer!!!
