This new generation of vehicles are essentially electric cars that use a Fuel Cell instead of batteries to run an electric motor. Using a chemical process, Fuel Cells convert the on-board stored Hydrogen and the Oxygen in the air directly into electricity to power the electric motors. These new Hydrogen powered electric vehicles are very efficient and the by-product of combustion is almost entirely water vapor.

The problem is that these new vehicles are years away from production, they will be very expensive, and converting to using Hydrogen fuel in this manner requires the purchase of a new vehicle. Hydrogen/Fuel Cell systems currently under development by large manufacturers will have us purchasing Hydrogen at a filling station just as we now do gasoline.

HHO Water To Gas Converter

There are numerous sites on the internet now marketing Do It Yourself 'How To' books and kits for the installation of HHO Supplemental Fuel Generators utilizing HHO Gas or Brown's Gas. These types of systems supplement the gasoline that the engine is burning by injecting the HHO Gas directly into the air intake.

To create HHO gas the process of electrolysis is used to split Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms from water using an electric current across electrodes. The water/electrode containers range from Mason Jars to other more elaborate containers of various sizes and shapes.

They all make claims about increased mileage and performance and it appears that most of them work to some degree with mileage increases as much 20-50% or more. For less than $100 US for parts you can build and install your own.

Hydrogen Fuel Basics

Due to the fact that Hydrogen gas burns so much faster than gasoline, engines with compression ratios greater than 9.5 to 1 are very susceptible to damaging predetonation (engine knock).

For this reason, Hydrogen conversions are not recommended for vehicles with turbochargers, superchargers, or compression ratios greater than 9.5 to 1. Although, even with the higher compression, different ignition system, and host of other factors, Water4Gas.com is claiming great success with diesel engines.

A lot has been written about converting vehicles to run on Hydrogen. Unfortunately, a lot of what you'll find on the internet may not be true. ANY claim of fueling a car with water, and having the water converted to Hydrogen quickly enough to power a passenger vehicle is pure B.S.

The bottom line is simple physics. It takes electrical energy to break the Hydrogen-Oxygen bond in water and release the free gases and that also takes time. The more energy applied to the water, the faster the gasses will evolve... up to a point.

Only the Hydrogen (or the combination of Hydrogen & Oxygen, HHO) in water is a fuel. It will always take more energy to get the Hydrogen out of water than you will get from it. The difference here is that pound-for-pound Hydrogen is several times more potent than gasoline.

It is not possible to create sufficient amounts of Hydrogen gas from HHO generation on-board the vehicle fast enough to idle even the smallest passenger vehicle. These types of systems are only capable of supplementing the gasoline that is being burned, which also increases the mileage, performance, and reduces the emissions.

It is possible to realize significent mileage gains with an HHO Supplemental Fuel Generator System. Mileage increases up to 50% and more are common. There are numerous ways to tweek the performance and new methods and materials are routinely reported from installations around the world. There are systems you can build yourself by following the tutorial manuals and assembled components are also available for a price.
