Hi Reid, Go back in the archives!!! I introduced and sold polarity reversal units several years ago. At that time it was a constant voltage generator, all electronic.
To do it with constant current I would have to use a relay for the switch. What are you using, constant voltage or current? I will setup like I have in the past when people come up with a new procedures and verify the results. Have you had a commercial test of the product? Awaiting your answers.
