Do HHO Gas Generators Work? |
|
|
Last week, I was at my local mechanic's shop. He began telling me about someone who had installed an HHO gas generator. This person is also a customer of the same mechanic, so I was wondering, do HHO gas generators/electrolyzers actually work? If so, are there any major items to consider when choosing a design or installing it? My final question about these things deals with the laws of thermodynamics, since gas generates the electricity (via the alternator) that, in turn, generates the HHO gas via electrolysis, is it actually possible to recover more energy than you're putting in?
Thanks guys :)

email is blgordon AT uncg.edu For the people trying these, they do work. To help eliminate the brown (rusty water) start your solution with distilled water and baking soda. Also, use 316L stainless steel wire it has the least amount of carbon and will rust the slowest. If anyone has any problems or need any of the wire email me...I could only find it in a 25 lb spool so I have a ton of it left. Thanks and Good luck guys!

My advice is to keep trying if they work for you. The only way to learn is by trying. And don't give up. Also build your own. The greatest inventions have been created by regular people. I am sure a lot of people thought Henry Ford was nuts when he made his horseless carriage. I would be wary of the ebay ones. They may just want a fast buck.

I don't know about scams for "gullible" people, but my husband has been working on a hydrogen generator for a couple of months. We ran the car on "assist" hydrogen for about a week. It does work in that it assists in the mileage you can get, but the challenge to overcome right now is the "brown" water (which is rust in the water) has to be changed quite often. So, the generator can be built - as a previous poster mentioned, check out YouTube - there is a world of info there. And yes, Stanley Meyers did seem to have the answer, the rumor is that because he refused to sell his "invention" he was killed and all plans were either stolen or destroyed. So my advice is rather than buy plans from someone else, check out YouTube, and build your own. As with any new product, there is a lot of trial and error involved. And he has spent hours and hours and hours at the computer doing research.

There are many substandard products out there. These three seem to be the top of the line:
This shows independent testing results: http://www.hydrorunner.com/test-data.html
This one has been selling to fleets and industrial users for many years. Testimonials are essentially independent testing results http://www.chechfi.ca/sotesti.htm#
This one is publicly traded and is in process of ongoing esting of Hydrogen Fuel Injection (HFI) by one of the argest suppliers of vehicles to the U.S. armed forces http://www.hydrogenht.com/news.html

There is something called a hydrogen generator, and it WORKS, I don't know if it is the same as a HHO generator. My husband is in the process of fabricating one as I type.

There seems to be a lot of controversy over this floating around, the short and long answer is yes and no. Small HHO generators can improve your existing gas mileage by 30-40% if installed correctly, but as for a full conversion, it isn't possible through electrolysis. The Only way to achieve a full HHO running vehicle is to build a cell that produces more than 90 Liters of gas per minute where as the current offerings can produce 1.5-5 liters depending on it's size and power consumption. Production of 90+ liters per minute can only be reached when the combination of resonate frequency of the water vapor, combined air, and injector can be synchronized to split H2O molecules with very little power consumption. The only person thought to have done this is Stanley Meyers, but he is now dead. (he supposedly had a dune buggy that ran on water) My advice: Save your money on buying kits and do a little research and build your own, a great place to start is to go to Youtube and search for a guy named "ZeroFossilFuel" he's been perfecting his cells for quite some time and has had a lot of success with low power high output cells. Try some ideas out, experiment who knows you might stumble upon the secret to the myers cell (a cell that can produce well over 5 liters a minute on 0.5 amps through resonate vibrations.)

It is impossible to get more energy out of a device than you put in. When ever the price of gas goes up there are people ready to sell bogus items to take advantage of the gullible. You can type in hho gas generator at goggle and get all kinds of people selling these generators. My advise is save your money.
