Water electrolysis gives you HHO gas

Oxyhydrogen ( HHO ) is a mixture of hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) gases, typically in a 2:1 molar ratio, the same proportion as water. This gaseous mixture has been used for torches for the processing of refractory materials for quite some time.

A pure stoichiometric mixture is most easily obtained by water electrolysis, which uses an electric current to dissociate the water molecules:

electrolysis: 2 H2O → 2 H2 + O2
combustion: 2 H2 + O2 → 2 H2O

Scientist have thought that the energy required to generate the oxyhydrogen always exceeds the energy released by combustion .
That is not the case anymore, at least when it comes to applying the simple technology of an HHo or hydrogen on demand system to your daily driven vehicle.
With more people applying hydrogen on demand systems (HHO) to their cars and trucks every day we rack up more and more records of proven gains in mileage per gallon of gas. For proven results Click Here

Electrolysis of water

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water (H2O) into oxygen (O2) and hydrogen gas (H2) due to an electric current being passed through the water. This electrolytic process is used in some industrial applications when hydrogen is needed.

An electrical power source is connected to two electrodes, or two plates, (typically made from some inert metal such as platinum or stainless steel) which are placed in the water. Hydrogen will appear at the cathode (the negatively charged electrode, where electrons are pumped into the water), and oxygen will appear at the anode (the positively charged electrode). The generated amount of hydrogen is twice the amount of oxygen, and both are proportional to the total electrical charge that was sent through the water.

Electrolysis of pure water is very slow, and can only occur due to the self-ionization of water. Pure water has an electrical conductivity about one millionth that of seawater. It is sped up dramatically by adding an electrolyte (such as a salt, an acid or a base).

Historically, the first known electrolysis of water was done by William Nicholson and Anthony Carlisle in about 1800.
Why are we not using this simple technology in 2008 ??
