[NewCandle] Constrained hydrolysis

Hey guys,

We should consider, or try to design, a low-tech flame arrestor so that 
gas coming off of any low output cell can be burned on the spot. That 
way it might be possible to get a "ballpark" thermodynamic balance.

I assume that a coleman wick is way too porous for H2 and maybe not 
catalytic. They use a water bubbler arrangement for some JC experiments, 
which is probably the way to go if you add some nickel mesh to 
catalytically ignite, as at low volume -- you could lose a flame from 
time to time. Any other suggestions?
