Maybe try graphite rods from heavy duty D cell batteries? I did some electrolysis a while back and after a few runs no soot formed. Never tried with higher voltages though.

Subject: [DIYbio] How do you prevent electrodes from rust?
Hey guys, I'm really new here, I built a small gel electrophoresis device but everytime I use it, the electrodes rust up like nothing I've ever seen, and I end up with a pile of metallic mush in the buffer solution. I'm just wondering how this is usually prevented? This has happened with steel plated screws as well as gold-plated electrodes.
Thanks guys
