the laws of science haven't changed since the 17th century. dont think it has.dont listen to these people, it's all a scam. if you wanna think something, get an education.

there is no point in producing hydrogen from water by electrolysis. this is basic physics and chemistry. im sorry.so you produce hydrogen from water, then burn it, and the result is water. so you start off with water and end up with waterthe law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, only transformedin this example we end up with the exact same thing we started off with, so there is no energy output. it is only a transformation of electric energy.

the notion of perpetual machines being impossible has already been refuted.

Great video.

First law of thermodynamics: No perpetual motion machines. It takes energy to break water into its constituents, and because we live in the real world we can never get all that energy back through combustion. So by running this off the alternator, you're just putting more load on the engine which the hydrogen can't make up. Simple terms: You lose MORE power than without it. Gas savings come from running the engine too lean, which is very very harmful to the engine. It's a scam. My condolences.

When you install a new battery, it is already charged, otherwise the car won't start! Somehow you have to store some Hydrogen in a chamber for every time you start the car (it does start using Hydrogen only according to Mythbusters.I think the key challenge would be how to store the Hydrogen and retrieve it, and how to produce it efficiently for the car. Adding starch might help according to recent research in Berkely.

KRex09 it's not short-circuiting the battery. it is however creating a circuit for the production of oxygen and hydrogen via electrolysis. no it will not hurt your system if you know what you are doing. volts*amps=watts so always remember your equations when sucking power out of your system. I am sure many guys think that the 1000W sub-woofer in the back of their car doesn't take any energy to run either! every single electrical system is robbing power from your drive-train. no free lunch!

of course you can recharge the battery; so where will you get the energy for that? at the moment you recharge a battery in car/truck from burning fuel (gas/diesel) and sending some of the energy to the alternator which acts like an electric motor in reverse; ie takes power out of the system.a very fine balance between fuel efficiency and electrolysis is possible but not the claims of most. Key is effecting greater fuel oxidation in combustion process; hydrogen is proven to work when injected.

whodares2000 (December 31, 1969 at 5:59 pm)

can't you recharge the battery? You know have something like the alternator in your car to recharge the battery? Battery converts H2O to HHO then engine recharge battery. Camp by a lake ;)I agree, it might not be feasible, but I also believe big oil companies have something to do with it. Man, Ford makes a diesel powered Car that get 65mpg and never market it in the US? This sounds suspicious. There are European cars such as the BMW diesel that are not imported to the US (gets about 50mpg!).

So you think hydrogen stored in water is available with the pull of a trigger? Your analogy needs alot of work to make it feasible! study some basic thermodynamic principles about the process of electrolysis. Simple: buy a gasoline powered generator, build an electrolysis unit and make the gen run on the HHO produced... can't, no-one has or will. The battery producing the electricity to create the HHO will be your "fuel" as hydrogen is just carrier of the stored energy of battery... make sense?
