Nothing new under the sun, Solar! Have you noticed in particular any elimination of plate-out? In respect of wiper location, the small 3-12V motor I was planning to use has the shaft protruding through the back, so a wiper can make direct contact there, assuming there is electrical contact between motor shaft and driven electrode.
