[NewCandle] Back emf ?

[Jones Beene]

--- Keith 

Then you would say that the brief negative spike seen
on his scope is from recombination, correct?

This would imply that some of what he thinks is O2 is
probably steam. That should be easy enough to confirm
by collecting the gas in a water displacement
arrangement, and then looking for condensation, which
should be rather pronounced if there is significant
steam.
