7 plates in series should yield 6 cells @ 2V each, which means you should get gas evolution on both sides of all plates, however you may need to take measures to ensure that the electrolyte is separated by the plates. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://users.bigpond.net.au/rvanspaa/ Competition provides the motivation, Cooperation provides the means.
