We all know that surface area and efficiency is the key to making a good electrolyzer.
Surface area being the key point. You only need 1.24 volts / cell for electrolysis. I will use Chris's cell again for my example only because we have all seen it and by that you should be able to see what I am getting at....Chris had 5 cells, in each cell he had 12 3" by 6" plates 6+ and 6-for a total of 60 plates. He took one cell out of the picture to increase his amperage right...Now we are down to 4 cells...Ok so 432 sq" per cell for a total of 1728 sq" of surface area. He had 4 cells on 12 volts so 3 volts per cell sharing 15 amps. That would be 3 volts for every 432 sq".
So it does not matter how many ss plates you have in one cell (Provided you have enough current). You could have 20+ and 20- (3"X6") plates in one cell in series with 9 more identical cell for a total of 14400 sq" of surface area. If using 12.4 volts that would be 1.24 volts for every 1440 sq" times 10 cells (with 40 ss plates in each cell 20+ and 20-) will get you that 1.24 volts / cell range.
My old series cell in my projects page made 5-6 Liters of hydroxy gas per minute. BUT I was only utilizing 20 square inches of surface area out of 48 square inches in each cell. My ss plates are 4"x6" for a total of 48 sq" (both sides) that was my down side of my old design I couldn't utilize all 48 sq inches.
This is just a theory that I have and want to clear up before I start building my new cell. I have a couple more parts that I need to get my hands on but I don’t want to get too far into this theory just to find out that it will not work.

Anyway this question is not directed directly at Chris just who ever can answer this question....
Chris in your Cereal Box cells that you made you had 12 ss plates 6+ and 6- and you put that in series with more cells.
Does it really matter how many + and - ss plates you have in one cell.
The lowest amount of voltage needed to make Hydroxy is somewhere around 1.24 volts right so instead of a cell with 6+ and 6- ss plates you could have 40+ and 40- ss plates in one cell and put that in series with a few more 40 plate cells. So say you have 6 volts you could have 2 40 plate cells running on 3 volts each plus your very high amperage 
right or wrong?
