Electrolysis .....

I'm using a brass lip with a stainless thru wire .. Do I have to worry about maybe the brass breaking down .. ? This is on my skin plug ... I'm making the lips and I have the brass and its easy to work with ..

I don't think we will live long enough for it to make a differance. It won't be in the water long enough. I have used brass screws on SS lips and don't notice any electrolysis.

I think you are fine as long as you don't hook power to it.

Tagga, you may have stumbled on the answer to bio power here.

By Hydro-orienting an electrolysis effected plug you may have created

HydroElectricity.

I wouldn't worry about it, if it takes a year in salt water to disintegrate a large zinc on an 8ft brass propeller shaft

your lips should hold up pretty good, and you wouldn't have to worry about reverse polarization either.

Good one Dave. I just figured he had some unwanted hair he needed removed so he can break out his pickle suit this summer for the beach with all the exercising he is doing.

We have a guy from Brazil at work, He's proud of it and keeps saying "I'm Brazilian!" I asked if he knew what that meant in this country. Geeze, when he found out what I meant, I had to watch out for him. He was peezed off.
It'a a gift, I guess.....
