Hydrogen supplementation system (for your ride)

[east or bust]

I stumbled upon a shortened version of this video (minus install). If it works, seems like a pretty good alternative to buying a DD/commuter car. Says they average a 33% mpg increase. I wonder if that applies to both city and highway, would guess they mostly do older vehicles.

This guy says it's bullshit: http://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/a4798/4336109/

Yup, Iceman's post is most likely correct.


Have seen videos that are pretty convincing they'll work for big diesel trucks, but the debunking is most likely correct that the extra alternator draw would negate any gains.

Solar panels as the power source might be the only way to get around the fact that it supposedly takes more energy to covert the water, than you get out of the hydrogen?

Don't let those guys fool you, magnets around your fuel lines are where it's at.

^^^ Right? I heard that if you could get those magnets for your fuel lines you'd instantly see a 15% increase in fuel economy. Now if those damned dirty oil company execs would stop snatching up this sort of technology and locking it big vaults beneath their palatial offices we'd have limitless free energy for everyone!

I'm going to buy stock in solar powered hydrogen alloy magnets.

People have been buying into shit like this since the car was invented.

Who was it that said "there's a sucker born every minute" ?

I'm going to put a wind turbine on the roof of my electric car then its free energy forever.

You mean you don't have one of these installed in each vehicle you own?
