First if the rods are too close together, then the ions simply move from one rod to the other, so some distance is required for them to get lost in the water between the rods. Second, if you are using constant voltage, doubling the distance between the rods will approximately half the current, and double the time to get to a certain concentration. If you are using constant current, and have sufficient voltage available, there is no effect on the current. Marshall > Dee
