Has anyone had problems with this? Mine is working but not producing the correct ratio of gases. It is producing heaps of hydrogen but very little oxygen. I am using 2M Sulphuric acid.
Help!

You may have a leak? Try reversing the connections and see if you now get more oxygen than hydrogen, if so definitely a leak.
