To All,
Maybe no one knows about the gas separating dry cells that were open sourced about 4 or 5 years ago, I designed (or invented) a gas separating dry cell that works with as much efficiency as a normal dry cell. (not over Faraday) but produces just as much gas as a normal cell and separates it. Just a couple weeks before I was going to release it open source another experimenter released almost an identical design to mine open source, so I backed out completely, then gas prices plummeted and I shelved all my gas research. If this is not known to most of you I can start another thread on it and give all the details.

Sorry for delay, have my wifes grand daughter here this weekend and has turned the house upside down  Yes there are gas separating cells, but you have missed the point, you throw away the O2 but it was part of the power consumption (a big part). I am talking of separating and using the O2 to generate power. If you look at the split of power on the electrodes, the anode (oxygen electrode) gives up 4 electrons to produce that gas and the cathode (hydrogen electrode) gives up 2 electrons, in total 6 electrons. This is in reverse of what you may think when evolved are 2 molecules of H to one of O. Cathode (reduction): 2 H2O(l) + 2e− → H2(g) + 2 OH−(aq) Anode (oxidation): 4 OH−(aq) → O2(g) + 2 H2O(l) + 4 e− Combining either half reaction pair yields the same overall decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen: Overall reaction: 2 H2O(l) → 2 H2(g) + O2(g) The number of hydrogen molecules produced is thus twice the number of oxygen molecules. Assuming equal temperature and pressure for both gases, the produced hydrogen gas has therefore twice the volume of the produced oxygen gas. The number of electrons pushed through the water is twice the number of generated hydrogen molecules and four times the number of generated oxygen molecules. So it is important that we can reuse those electrons, not as an oxidiser for burning, but to store it in the anode as a metal oxide and dump the energy into the power input, SMD does this in series with the 33% extra needed to get back to the original power input (theoretical), in practice you need to tune that extra input with the cycling of charge to discharge of your collection store.
