Hi everyone,
I am looking at building my own power supply and need to know if there is an optimum voltage for plating.

Will be plating copper, nickel, zinc and real chrome.

I have seen the voltage being used either 6 volts or 12 volts, usually from car batteries.

If it makes no difference 6 volts would be better as this gives double the amps if the same power supply is configured for 12 volts.

Can someone shed some light as to the theory behind the correct voltage required??


Thanks
