[NewCandle] Measuring Half-Cell Charge

[Nick Reiter]

Hey there gents,

Didn't hear from either of you as to whether you
thought graphite would be a decent replacement for
charcoal in the interior of a copper float half
cell...

Another thought - I have a nice little closed cell
container of brass.  How would brass compare with
copper for the half cell shell?
