Guest guest Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 it dissolves into water, forming a sort of bridge which carries more current than the water alone. same thing with salt, but salt also is irritating to skin when electricity is involved. baking soda is milder to skin. really just a tiny pinch of baking soda is needed to get a lot more current so go gradually. bG > > bG, I'm going to start using baking soda for a boost. I was just wondering how it works. I could see if you used salt in the water, that would make sense. How does baking soda provide a stronger current or connection?

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 if you want more detailed explanation, try googling ionic solutions, or conductivity of dissolved salts, something like that. bG > > > > bG, I'm going to start using baking soda for a boost.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 just wanted to add 2 cents and say that i use colloidal silver for wetting of electrodes. it's highly conductive and non irritating. works really well. regards > > > > > > bG, I'm going to start using baking soda for a boost.
