That's a proper BigClive post!! I can hear you saying it in your distinct voice!
One moment please!
Used that today before making a sjematic for an electronic repair I had to do to an unknown smoll measuring device, kinda homemade.
Very simple schematic, took pictures as well to know where all the red and black wires went, in case one would break off...
Thanks for your very informative and humorous videos!

Hello Clive, good to see you kicking about.

THIS is the good side of CZcams: practical demonstrations that are not thinly-veiled commercial ads. This informs, promotes, and teaches critical thinking--something the current education system (at all levels) is sorely lacking. BRAVO, Tech Ingredients!
Perfectly stated!
this test is somewhat non-effective, as he changed the fuel type. but did not retune the engine/carburetor to accomodate this new fuel type.
all this proved is that when an engine left as is, it will not gain a benefit from hho.
@@jimmyhackers8980 the difference would be negligible when you consider just how much of the engine output power goes into generating the hydrogen gas. it's a failed free energy machine.
@jimmy said the same thing in my comment. This test wasn't performed in the right way
@@jimmyhackers8980 how are you re-tuning the carbs as you are driving down the road?
It's effective enough for practical purposes.
Thank you for taking the time to set up and perform this demonstration! Awesome video!
50 years ago I did an undergrad in Biology with a minor in Chemistry, Math, and Physics. It took me on to a career in healthcare but my roots were always in natural science. I absolutely love what you do here. Really takes me back. I hope more people get to appreciate you.

After leaving the Navy, I worked for a while at NTS (or what is now N2S2). I worked with a triple PhD who had a knack for putting things in simple terms... This was an exercise in Thermodynamics. He would sum these efforts up in 3 easy steps.
1: You can never win, you can only break even.
2: You can only break even at absolute zero.
3: You can never get to absolute zero.
in theory, insects cant fly, please elaborate on that
@@rcajavus8141 What does that have to do with the previous post?
Also... of course insects can fly.
Sounds like attitude of a brilliant pessimist who lacks the creativity to invent or improve upon technology. The other side of that coin, while mostly true, is that there are staggering amounts of efficiency losses that can be reduced or eliminated. It’s not a question of defying thermodynamics, but creatively thinking about ways to recover energy that may be left on the table somewhere. Just my initial take . I’d be interested to see some more detailed and accurate testing on this.
@@AB-dm8nt You can invent and create all you want, the USPTO database is full of such inventions, but if they are going to work, they are bound by physics.
I don't understand the reference to perpetual motion machines here. If you put this on a car or even this video... You still have to replenish the salinated water. Given it was put on a vehicle why could it not simply reduce gas consumption?
Me and my friend were obsessed with this when I was 19. I made one from scratch. We determined we couldn't possibly produce enough gas to make it work, and gave up. I'm glad to finally see this put to rest properly, because I've always been curious if it could possibly work in a best case scenario.
One my friend was working on engines' test benches, they mostly worked on a variable compression ratio engine prototype but they also accepted side projects.
One of these clients was the "inventor" of one of those generator, looking for a demonstration that his system worked (props to him for trying, most of those don't want to involve real science). They tried, with unbelievably favorable conditions, they never could detect the slightest efficiency increase, even trying on a very small monocylinder engine the system couldn't deliver enough hydrogen so it would have never worked on the bigger engines we have in our cars, and it might even have been with an external power supply instead of taking power from the crankshaft.
I think it was more than 10 years now. The inventor left really disappointed, I don't know if he kept selling these generators though.
what about if it was in a diesel van, where you have solar cells on the roof and extra battery capacity for storing all that... wouldn't that work for improving mpg?
@@aninfid the extra drag from the solar panels and wieght from the batteries etc would loose you mpg!
Would feeding hydrogen to an engine possibly damage the metal components?
@@aninfid at best, with 45% efficiency of electricity to HHO conversion, you'd get maybe 1/2 HP of "free" power, assuming you could fit four 250W solar panels on the roof of the van. I think it would be smarter to just feed to the electricity directly into the car's electrical system (somehow) to ease the burden on the alternator to produce electricity for the headlamps, ventilation, etc.
Great video, great quality and explanation. You’ve got another subscriber! Very excited I’ve found another channel that will not disappoint. Love it!
This guy is a great teacher. This is exactly what CZcams is supposed to be about. I’d much rather see this type of content more and less vlogs of of so called content creators. Keep up the good work.
Great at teaching you how not to do the assignment 😂 Bro is on the same level as click bait CZcams creators with this video
I mean these videos have always been here 😅
Been a mechanic since I was a sprat and over the years, countless people have asked me if HHO systems work, and I've always told them they are a load of horse exhaust. Without fail, none of them believed me and just insisted I wAtCh tHiS yOuTuBe vIDeO, sEe iT wOrKs! Thank you for taking the time and the effort to finally effing demonstrate that HHO is a fun gas to make BANG noises and nothing more. Now I've got a CZcams video to show THEM!
There is one advantage to the HHO scam
It makes it easy as pie to spot a dumb kid with a wrench claiming to be a mechanic. Just ask if HHO generators really work!
@@humanistwriting5477 the only time I saw a car on CZcams run on hydrogen was when a dude plumbed his car to a fishtank filled with muriatic acid and he dumped in a load of beer cans. It does work assuming you have an endless supply of beer cans and don't mind driving around with a tank of acid sloshing around and you have a carful of buddies shotgunning Busch Light as fast as possible...
All I know is that a very small leak in the connection between the HHO cell and the engine can be really bad if the gas find a place to collect.
The detonation of just a few liters HHO gas can make a big bang.
@@bknesheim Yeah and it'll make your driver's seat smell restroom fresh too!

I found this interesting! I wish I had your channel back when I was in high school, my teachers did not do me any service in their efforts to make learning fun and exciting, as you do in your videos. Years later now, in my 30's, I find myself wishing I had become interested in science so much sooner. Nuclear science in particular is just fascinating to me, but I am afraid that I just waited too long to find that fascination to be able to do anything with it. Keep up the amazing work, sir.
If you really are interested in science, then it's not too late.
That interest rarely begins because of school or a teacher. It's a mindset that starts with "why"?
The scientific method is:
Observation
Patern recognition
Theory
Test
Conclusions

This guy and his public facing science lab stuff is just tremendous.
You wish your high school science teachers had a tenth of what this guy has going.
Many happy days to this man and his family and friends.
Too bad high school science teachers are often forced to A) teach for a stupid test, and B) have a class full of students at widely different skill levels. Not usually their fault
I had a high-school physics teacher who went the extra mile, just like this guy did.
But if your point is that there's not enough of that ... then I agree.
My high school science classes in New York were fantastic... I feel bad for others who didn't have the same opportunity.
Government subsidized schools are too busy teaching Ideologies to make time to teach science. Currently, a College History textbook has only 200 pages and it is all racism.

I have to agree that Hydrogen is not Nitro and should not improve the performance of the engine. However, Hydrogen is a flammable gas and no air/fuel mixture re-calibration was performed on the carb, therefore the same amount of fuel was being burned by the engine. I would like to see this experiment performed again and see if we can lean out the carb (have it use less fuel) and maintain the same RPM when the new combustible fuel (H2) is introduced to the air/fuel mixture. If you could lessen the amount of liquid fuel when introducing H2 then it may have a place after all.
That is what I was saying to my self the whole time. I mean I know any real gain is so little that it wouldn't matter but it should require less fuel to maintain the same RPM when the HHO is being added. If this had been a fuel injected engine it would have automatically adjusted the fuel.
Especially since it takes about 2/3 less hydrogen to get the same effect as gas
You're an inspiration. I learn so much from your videos and strive to emulate your comprehensive understanding of whatever I'm obsessed with.
Excellent, thanks for going through tgis whole setup.
I really appreciate that you considered the hypothetical possibility of HHO causing increase in efficiency sufficient to cover the energy lost by generating HHO. This is what intellectual honesty looks like.
Yes. And it still doesn't work. The problem is that this gesture (let's try to think how it could work in theory and try it out in practice) is like asking doubtful Thomas to stick his finger in the wound. And even after people will see this, many will still say "IT WORKS, I KNOW IT DOES".
I had many discussions about this topic and fuel from waste creation. It is the same principle. Thermodynamics. You can sometimes bend a little bit laws of physics, but you cannot break them.
@@ogi22 Thermodynamics is Physics, which for more than 90% of people simply do not understand; those that do often still get it wrong.
@@sonpopco-op9682 Oh beleve me i know. That's why i love watching this stuff, because very often i pick up on something i ommited previously. My latest "epiphany" was a couple years ago, when i finally understood why energy density (ie frim the sun or magnetic field) drops with a square of of distance. I couldn't somehow connect it to the same principle as why volume increases with 3rd power, area with a square and distance with 1st power.
That's what you get if you are given an equation at school and take it for granted. Not even thinking what it represents :)
@@ogi22 Thats fantastic. I had my latest epiphany only a few months ago, when I finally understood how electricity in its different facets ( long range, short range, bulk) explains all of the forces present in nature.
HHO reaction Burns so much hotter than gasoline. Of course the réaction will be slightly improved.

This was fascinating! Have always wondered if this could possibly work. Thank you!!!
You're welcome!
Thank you for the video! I found it to be very informative!
Really like your work. True professional. One comment on this test, I am a Mechanical engineer and what was missing in your test is the effect of timing for the engine. Hydrogen burns much faster than gasoline and by adding small amount of hydrogen to the mix you speed up the burn of the fuel. That means you can retard the ignition timing of the engine closer to TDC and increase the efficiency of engine. If you get net zero gain with the same timing you should get benefit with optimal timing for the added HHO gas.
I wish the creator would answer you!
Except that if you generate the HHO with power from the engine, you lose. Also, tiny amounts of hydrogen my burn quicker, but the vast majority of the fuel remains the hydrocarbons.
Your warning about graduated pipettes was amazingly insightful. I'm pretty sure a couple of "inexplainable" errors I had in college chemistry 30 years ago was this very error. Thanks for solving that mystery.

My English is too bad to understand everything properly. But if I understand it correctly, the electricity consumption corresponds to the petrol saved. Could you then also say that with a heater, I could achieve the same heating output with electricity and the hydrogen generator instead of heating oil or natural gas?
Excellent and thorough explanation, I've been making the same case since i first ran across these things but now i can direct people here.
Glad it helped!

Very informative and interesting. Thankyou.
When I was in high school one of my dads friends roped me into helping with his company selling (extremely well build and commercial looking) HHO devices to put on long haul trucks. The devices put out a lot of hydrogen, but as expected the problem was that it just drew too much power to be worth it. eventually they dropped the mileage claims from their marketing and instead advertised them as making the truck more 'environmentally friendly', but given that they actually decreased the fuel economy and increased the engine temperature, no one wanted them and the company went under.
Honestly, high school is the best possible time to have that learning experience. You know - if the company you're working for is bull, you need to jump ship asap. Imagine that you had a wife and 3 kids when that happened.
It would actually make the truck far less environmentally friendly, by messing with the burn in the combustion chamber, causing far more unpleasant gases to be produced.
Your Dads friend was/is a fraudster/scammer :(
@@kevinshort3943 you accuse people but what have you done in your life? he tried and failed he probably wasn't a physicist he started a business ran into problems and moved on. talk less because no one cares about your non evidence based claim or your accusations to make yourself feel better about being a no life
@@ColonelSandersLite Thus the reason the company kept selling them even after they knew it was a piece of trash idea. It's hard to get a man to understand something when his livelihood depends on not understanding it.
They should have advertised that lighter fuel mixtures could cause less wear on the engine by burning cleaner. Doesn't fix the tempature problem but at least it would be true. I might be a bit biased though as I have always liked the idea of hydrogen as a fuel source.
Not sure how much time or heartache it will take but I am convinced ICE hydrogen engines are going to happen, not the next 50 years maybe but it's going to happen eventually.
every bit of content you make is beyond excellent. every topic you pick is extrmemely interesting and usually something ive wanted to know more about or have investigated a bit - but you just provide - dead set - the best information. outstanding.

This was great! Good experiment and explanation on this HHO hype.
I was thinking - couldn't you just do the math to bust this, you don't need a rig. Then you used the math to bust it. This is why I love you guys, cut right to the chase, then back it up with some fun experimental stuff too. Thank you again for your content, love it.
Sometimes you just have to do the thing to prove the work and that it doesnt work, because sometimes it ends up working (even just like by a tiny fraction) and you have to figure out why. and end up discovering something new to explain why something isnt how we thought on paper. Even though something like this example is pretty clear cut its still worth doing a practical experiment to be completely certain :) and thats why I love this channel, they are willing to put in the work and see the outcome even when it seems silly. Plus I feel like we got some great data that can be used elsewhere! Hope we see more of the HHO generator in future experiments and projects.
Wow! You guys kill me, hopefully not literally! 😂
Yes. Start with the true costs of current model, which is not captured in this demonstration.
If you have never refined crude, looked into refining crude, and just assume gasoline is cheaper than HHO production, you are trapped in someone else's dream for their life. And then we use a demonstration with an engine designed with compressive explosions and at best 28% efficiency. 35% maximum in a controlled laboratory....and we still make them, and buy them. MIT proved 30 years ago a engine coupled with a Stirling cycle yields upwards of 60% efficiency with that precious "cheap" petrol product endorsed here. The problem? Engine manufacturers found it easier and thus more profitable to keep business as usual, big government agreed.
@@the_natrix9959 I don't think anyone thinks gas is the best XD but in this setup which is a good example of what people are being sold its at best the same or worse than just gas. I believe in the immediate future the best use of hydrogen is to generate it off excess wind and solar power as storage then to use it as a fuel source to be converted back into electricity in an electric vehicle on demand. But even then only time will tell how viable that is. Actually I would like to see a video on that!

Thank you for your work. In ww2 the germans sprayed water into the intakes on fighter plains and later used a mix of water and alcohol to boost the power output
yeah in attempt to "pre-cool" the air which kinda helps increasing massflow to the engine.
That's water injection, I believe the B-52 bomber also does that trick for take-offs and for cars Hydrodiesel aims to get the same effect
It's still used today in race cars. It's a 50/50 of methanol and water, you spray it in blown (supercharged) applications at the drag strip. You inject this myst before the blower, and it's basically 118-120 octane mixed into your system.
it cooles the intake air und raises the thermal efficiency according Carnot Cycle.

I purchased schematics for an HHO generator many years ago and never got around to testing it out -- I'm happy to see you putting in the work to demonstrate the model's capabilities (or lack thereof). It was intended as something to do to spend time with my father and to improve our fleet vehicles if it somehow miraculously showed benefits; however, my father ended up passing away since then and we never got around to it.
It makes me happy to see you and your son being able to do these projects together -- keep up the great work and don't let that pesky roman candle debacle foul your spirit or curiosity.

He’s correct, with the inefficiency caused by the time for fuel generation from water it’s not feasible. But all the guys who produced on demand at the fuel rail, have all been suicided, like that guy who toured the US in that horrible little green car.
he is not testing the exhaust fuel-oxy ratio it can run on higher fuel ratio and can really could not tell the difference of the engine performance.
I found the only real practical free fuel to be used veggy oil. Worked in my '98 VW TDI and '92 F-250 diesel. But EPA emissions now prevent it from being used in any vehicle post 2006.
In my 20's I volunteered on Bruce DePalmas' "N" machine project. Nothing viable but we got to make a rotor with 400lbs NdFeB magnets, and I met a few amazing engineers/artists. Roger Modjeski (RIP) built a really cool inverter for the machine. When I saw experimental process being tweaked to eliminate control, I left. Your videos remind me of that Youthful time. Your mirror ball reminds me of after hours vacuum tube analog hifi. I learned much and had fun!

I used to work in Worthington, Ohio and lived in Mt. Sterling, Ohio passing through Grove City where one day I personally saw Stan Meyer's dune buggy and talked to the man myself. I've been a certified machinist and mechanic for 42 years. The dune buggy ran on water.. I don't care who does or doesn't believe me. I saw what I saw. I've also soldered with Brown's gas.
Stan Meyer's spoke in woo. He told you one thing but did another. There used to be a Ford Taurus wagon that ran on 100% water here on the Texas coast. Guy died. I think it was Exxon that bought the car from his widow for $2k. Last I was told, if you can demonstrate it works, big oil will cut you a check for $5B to go away.
This video, done excellently, has verified that electrolysis is inefficient and thus consumes more energy than supplied. Stanley, previously to the car you describe, also had a patent not related to a car years previously. My guess, when you talked to the man, he would have stated that it does not work on ‘electrolysis’ which any high school student would tell you is an inefficient process.
@@magncity1817when his car was a thing he talked about frequency to pull apart the hydrogen and oxygen to rum the car as it went into the combustion chamber. Much like how you cam break a glass with sound. Or you can break anything else with sound
Yes Stanley was using water fracture and not electrolysis, which uses a method of flyback charging to liberate the hydrogen and oxygen and was higher voltage as well... this method was much more effective at getting the water to change into a gas and so used much less real power. In addition HHO uses chemicals to make the water conduct better and that generates heat whereas Stanley Meyer's method could work with distilled water alone and did not generate heat. This continues to enthrall my imagination as if it did not work...why did the establishment try to buy him off? Those people have the intelligence to know a good deal when they see one!
Thanks for honest reply. I live very close to Mt Sterling and am interested in knowing more.
This was so awesome. I have a couple HH0 people in my life. The practical application and measurements are so useful.

I always dismissed it from first principles, yet it is incredibly satisfying to see someone actually go through the pain of set it up and test it: very well done. Keep it up!
carnot efficiency limit for all thermal engines
eff.c = ( Tmax - Tmin) / Tmax. °K
@@arturoeugster7228 Issue with increasing Tmax is that pesky engines tend to melt... that is why we have intercoolers :D
@James Good old entropy never lies :D
@@yoshyoka
No, this is the idealized cycle , and the maximum temperature would be the combustion temperature ,by far not the piston, or cylinder wall temperature.
Intercooling is an entirely different concept, reducing the work needed to compress the working gas.
@@arturoeugster7228 That is correct, yet the combustion temperature can be only so hot before pistons start to melt and temperature management too complex.
By intercooling you are off course correct.
Excellent work. Love that you were open minded enough to experiment on this as well.
Thank you for validating me. I have had very lively ‘discussions’ with people that have no engineering or physics education trying to tell me that these perpetual motion devices (that they found on CZcams) work. They keep saying ‘well the guy on CZcams his contraption works.’
Great video. I had a HHO generator in my car for about a year. It did NOT improve fuel consumption, in fact it increased slightly. The HHO mix is compensated for by the O2 sensor on the engine. One good point though is that the exhaust outlet gasses were cleaner ( as reported by an MOT centre who tested the car with the system running and the system off ). They said the engine ran rich and at a slightly low temp with the HHO running. In the end the HHO damaged the steel piston rings, resulting in the scrapping of the car, so was a very expensive toy.
The problem with hho is that it doesn't lubricate your engine the way gasoline does and sometimes condenses and leaves water vapor in the engine your supposed to use an air dryer but that doesn't always work
It's been known for years to use ceramic piston rings and the O2 sensor issue is why people use older vehicles without a computer.
Also you should only be using a vehicle you're prepared to lose, people typically do this with cheap cars as a side project and there have been a number of deaths due to detonation, the timing has to be adjusted to suit implosion when the engine is running hydrogen (your ears will pop on the flame test if you have implosion afaik)
The spark plugs should also be upgraded and coupled with purpose built circuitry, look up "water spark plug" if you want to find out more
computerized cars need re programed for it to work
@@brixzereg The hydrogen does *not* replace the fuel at all.
It is just added to the air intake and comprises less than 1 percent of it. In this example, 1 liter out of 150 litres per minute is 0.66%. Times 2/3 for the H content = 0.44%
That is almost indistinguishable from zero, and you will certainly not notice any difference in performance.
@@ahaveland in this example the hydrogen oxygen mixture is added to air- fuel mix of the carburetor or injectors without it being leaned out to compensate. The thing is however that hho doesn't increase performance or efficiency it just replaces some of the fuel. Because it burns so quickly It takes much more hydrogen-air by volume than the gas-air mix to run the same motor
Great video TI guys!! I think you could do a lot more videos debunking scam devices like this and I know I'd watch em, I'm sure the rest of the audience would enjoy it as well.
I'd watch them because it's entertaining and very informative.
Scam?? .. my uncle knows a guy with a friend in Africa, who powers his car and house with Water, this guy here is just using the wrong water and forgot the magic magnets!!! /s
@@KrustyKlown Jet fuel is a hoax!
Great stuff. Thanks!
this guy is great... im always watching his videos... always useful Information
Thanks!
Just wanted to say your channel is fascinating. And love learning the technology as well as science. Sincere thanks.
Thank you for your community service debunking these scams. You're awesome 😎👍
Very good explanation!!
Thanks!
this 20 minute video felt like it was over in 3. incredibly informative. loved the use of the whiteboard and the straightforward statement of facts.
very cool!!
wait what... this was 20 mins?
I’m just LOVING the fact that you sucked all the air out of that beaker. I was cheering you on from home! And I totally agree, a scientist needs to have a very broad skill set! 😂
i did not understand what he was doing till he was finished.
@@David-ik8wj Yessir! I call that a good mystery-suspense story...
NO, you have not just debunked this generator! I am a big follower of your work and really appreciate your efforts!
You quote efficiencies but have NOT incorporated any into your Generator System. There has been many, many engineering minds that have that have looked at this problem. One of which was your own American Stanley Meyer who discovered the high mean resonant frequency for electrolysis and also a supper efficient injector system. You also must remember to set the timing correctly (TDC) as the HHO mixture implodes at ignition!

@@patmcintyre8421 If it eats the same amount of fuel for the same work, how can it be more efficient? Ultimately the chemical energy in (fuel) to electrical energy out is the efficiency measurement in this electrical generator system. Just to be extra sure the mechanical part does not cause problems, there was even an RPM sensor.
You do not even need to know the Joules of fuel used since it was the same. Same fuel, same seconds. Joules is wattseconds.
And it actually has *extra* fuel in terms of water when HHO electrolyzer is installed which means it is *less* efficient - you have to lug that water around in a real car. (and the electrolyzer itself too)
If running rich was an issue you would hear knocking and/or the motor would turn at different RPM. This little change of fuel mix does *literally nothing* . By the way, adjust your engine *before* and also *after* to actually see that literally nothing has changed. It's easy to compare unadjusted to adjusted engine and get fooled.
@@patmcintyre8421 I agree, I think the issue has been that people only think of this singular method of separating the molecules. Electrolysis as a method is just not efficient if you're using manufactured electrical power, and that's how every single skeptic proves it, by doing it the worst way possible.
Appreciate your work dear sir.👍👍
Thanks for this!
Such a clear explanation, great as always!
Fascinating and informative; as usual. You have the ability to explain what are quite complex concepts in a way that is understandable to everybody. It's a pity you weren't my college physics lecturer!!
It would be very educational to see you recreate or discuss some of the free energy devices from the documentary Lost century and how to reclaim it, particularly Floyd Sweets vacuum triode device that was proven to work. Thanks for all your great content.
Magnetic fields in permanent magnets fall when acted on by oppositional magnets fields. If you hold a permanent magnet the wrong way in an extremely strong magnetic field, its magnetization will be permanently reversed.
All of those devices have at least one problem that means they don't work, and a lot of them have several issues.
There's good reasons why they aren't making someone billions.
I very much appreciate your accurate scientific testing procedures, therefore I can trust the results, also I copied your hydrofoil profile a few months ago when making a new rudder for my sailboat, I constructed it from marine grade aluminum, I did calculate its buoyancy and it was slightly positive, I'm very happy with the results, yes it floats if accidentally dropped into the water and when I tried it out on a lake it out performed original rudder by a very noticeable amount but no scientific testing was done, I was so happy with it that I didn't care, thank you very much, you are a great teacher.
That's great!
When what we struggle to design, construct, and demonstrate helps other people with their projects...thats what it's all about.
Love this guy. If the crap ever hits the fan I would love to be his neighbor.
Have you seen his jet engine tests? It probaly is his fan and his crap ;-D
I'd love him as a neighbor today! Even though the fan blades are already a little shitty now lol.

I built a 10 by 10 inch, 5-cell unit and ran it in my Izusu trooper with a GM V6 engine. I get 10 to 15% better fuel economy running the HHO generator than without it. I only draw 13 amps at 12 volts. I'm not trying to run the engine on HHO alone, but supplement it with gasoline. The engine has more power at a lower rpm. The engine runs so clean that the oil looks brand new after 2 years but I change it because I know it breaks down from use. I also use DuraLube in the oil to reduce friction. I put Iridium spark plugs in the engine because you never have to change them. After 5 years I checked them and they still look brand new. I don't have a degree in thermodynamics or anything like that but it works.
You cant be serious.🤦♂️ Its so easy to lie your self.😁 If you watch this video, you Will understand, it wont work.
@@uittoan Frankly I don't give a damn about what you have to say. All I know is that it works. The problem is there are too many critics like yourself that put it on paper and the equations say it won't work. But they are too cheap or lazy to build it and try it themselves. Thermodynamics has been wrong time and time again because our math system has too many screw-ups in it. The only way to advance knowledge is to go beyond the blackboard and just try it.
You are good to go as you are running in several hours of travelling time.

@@Ken-rk3by Hi Ken, am Bonnie. I admire your curiosity. I'm an engineer and had a lot of technical experiments too and i want to follow post. I'm making a study on HHO projects used on cars. I am building a wet type HHO generator using 12 volts. I plan to install a separate alternator and battery system exclusively intended for the HHO generator only. I am buying a carburetor to supply the brown gas to be connected to the intake manifold independent of the existing carburetor. The original carburetor will just supply gasoline to the engine for idling condition. The additional carburetor to supply brown gas to power the engine will be operated separately. Since the brown gas ignites and explodes instantly compared to gasoline, I will revise the spark timing to occur few degrees after top dead center. The present spark timing is about 8 - 12 degrees before top dead center. May I know your comment on this... Thanks in advance...
@@bonnieantenor6548 - What I did was just install the HHO supply before the oxygen sensor. I didn't do anything about the timing, as I don't know enough about electronic ignition systems as I am old school. I did find that the small amount of HHO worked best at low RPM. I wouldn't change the timing as there is a very small amount of HHO being mixed with the gasoline. All it seems to do is make a more complete combustion of the gasoline. Whatever you do, don't run the HHO before you start the car, because it could blow the engine. I didn't get any knock or pre-detonation in my engine. I hope that helps you out.
Excellent presentation
What a nice clean setup. What a gift these videos are. This is what the world is supposed to be like.
Thanks!
The amount of hardwork you guys put in per video is amazing. I can't imagine setting up a electrolytic cell and doing such experiments in any span of time. I'd doubt whether it was worth it at all a hundred times before actually putting a single pair of o-ring and steel plates together.
I thought the cell was part of the kit that you can buy (i.e. commercially produced). Maybe I'm wrong?
