Flat-pack version of the V1 electrolysis cell. Every part arrives cut to shape and you supply the assembly time, the fasteners, and the sealing method. It is the lowest-cost way onto the V1 platform.

This suits researchers, educators, and builders who plan to modify the design anyway, since changing the geometry is far easier before the cell is bonded and bolted together than after.

What you get

Exploded view and box contents of the V1 unassembled electrolysis cell kit, with numbered parts legend
Every part in the box, numbered, with the exploded view showing where each one goes. Slide-in membranes (14, dashed) are sold separately.
  • Cell body blank in white 3/4″ (19mm) PVC foam board, cut as shown in the photos
  • Two clear PVC face plates, 1/4″ thick, cut for the anode and cathode sides
  • One 1/2″ clear PVC pipe, roughly 3″ to 6″ long
  • One 3/4″ clear PVC pipe, roughly 3″ to 6″ long

Note on the face plates: “clear” PVC carries a natural transparent blue tint. There is no truly colorless or optically clear PVC.

Not included

No fasteners, adhesives, gaskets, or sealants are supplied, so decide on your bonding method before you start. Also not included: slide-in membranes, electrodes, power supply, pumps, fittings and hoses, framing, stands, and any accessories specific to your setup.

Membranes are sold separately. The V1 takes up to two: V1 slide-in cation exchange membrane.

Want it built instead?

The V1 assembled electrolysis cell ships ready to test, with the titanium base bolt already fitted.

What is included in the unassembled kit?
You receive all the pre-cut PVC foam board pieces and face plates needed to build the V1 cell body. Electrodes, power supply, membrane, gaskets, and fittings are not included and must be sourced separately.
Do I need special tools to assemble this?
Basic assembly requires PVC cement/solvent, clamps, and standard hand tools. A drill may be needed for pipe fittings. Full dimensional diagrams are included in the product description.
Why would I choose unassembled over assembled?
The unassembled version is ideal for researchers who want to modify the cell design, educators building custom setups, or buyers looking for a lower-cost entry point. It gives full control over the assembly.
Is this the same cell design as the V1 Assembled?
Yes, the same V1 cell design. The unassembled kit uses the same PVC foam board body and clear PVC face plates as the assembled version.
