In this video I take apart 1 week old crystal cells made with Lasersaber's design & dead sea salts to show the corrosion occurring inside. I also compare crystal cells to just magnesium in water, distilled water & white vinegar. 

I would like to hear what you think about this stuff or what I'm possibly doing wrong.  

Crystal cells used:

3x 1/4" magnesium cores, 3/4" copper pipe & laser sabers crystal cell design @ 1.5" height 

1/4" magnesium core, 3/4" copper pipe & dead sea salt from Ontario @ 1.25" height. (see 4. Crystal Cell video for details)
