Save Gas!!!

do the math the energy to split water is coming from your battery that is being charged by your Alt. that is being turned by your gasoline engine. So instead of putting power to the wheels you are splitting water to get a small amount of hydrogen
 
Do any of you have first hand experience with this or are you just guessing what this can/cannot do?
 
Was proved to be a hoax on myth busters a few years ago. It can not produce enough hydrogen to sustain the engine. Its a form of electrolysis we use to make O2 on submarines however in this case we used much greater voltages and amperage and discharged the Hydrogen overboard through a diffuser and sent the O2 to the tanks or the bleed station.
 
I ran a very similar device in the Mark using hydrogen peroxide.

Before and after dyno runs showed zero difference, so I chucked it.
 
Are you telling me you studied HHO gas in high school physics or are you just trying to be trite?

yes I split water with a car battery in high school. Its a some what slow proses and the rate you would need to feed an engine is not where near what you would be getting. Plus you are putting added drag on the engine to produce the energy to split the water. That and im pretty sure you would end up with a dead battery
 
Edit it was chemisty not physics. ANd you wont get a dead battery if you hook it to the ignition switch.

You can do this at home if you want get a few chunks of wire and a dc power supply add an acid to water plug it in you will start to see bubbles forming on the wires if you capture it you can make fire balls

I did the same experiment in high school chemistry. I believe we added hydrochloric acid as a catalyst or it would take a very long time separate water into its components. We captured the hydrogen and oxygen. We got a small pop and fire out of the hydrogen test tube when we lit it. We took a wood stick, lit it, then blew out the flame, then stuck it into the oxygen test tube and the stick would lite up again.
Physics 101, conservation of energy, the term generally refers to any closed system that produces more energy than it consumes. Such a device or system would be in violation of the law of conservation of energy, which states that energy can never be created or destroyed, and is therefore impossible.
So one does not need to know the specifics of that device, just that it will take more energy to produce hydrogen and oxygen from electrolysis then it will produce.

exactly!
 
FWIW, my daughter-in-law's dad has a hydrogen powered lawn mower. Don't know any details but it supposedly runs.
 
Hi everyone, running your vehicle on gas is always an increasing cost, but there is a way that can be more profitable than this. Now you can easily use a system that allows you to convert your fuel costs to save huge amounts of running your vehicle. You can learn to build a simple inexpensive device, attach it to a vehicle's engine and convert that vehicle into a
water-burning hybrid .
