Really? so what part doesn't work. It producing hydrogen, or your motor using it?
Yeah, it sorta looks dodgy, but in a way that i would believe it works.

The amount of electricity needed to create a working hydrolysis reaction to produce enough hydrogen, makes it near impossible for the hydrogen fuel cell to run a car.

But this 'product' is not a hydrogen fuel cell is it ? Isn't it taking the hydrogen from water and using it as a fuel in the normal internal combustion engine, in this case supplementing the petrol, thereby reducing fuel consumption.

But yeah it still takes more energy to get the hydrogen than it produces in the engine so its a crock. The only way to make hydrogen work is to use solar to split it from oxygen.

Or buy it from the servo in 20 years time.
What would you have to do to convert a normal conbustion engine to hydrogen?
Dont go into too much detail if you dont want to

technically the same as gas... ideally IF it worked how it shouldit would be the same as running gas just it produces on the spot not holding it in a tank and it uses water which is almost free

oh yes i remember the mythbusters one now. the engine ran fine on the gas but the alternator cant produce enough electricity to make the fuel, perpetual motion and what not.

I had a guy come into work who bought a kit or somthing, 250$A and some distilled water every month, it makes the hydrogen when the car is at idle and stores it for use at some other time.
