Feedback seems to suggest it works but im also a bit sceptical. It doesnt seem to say anywhere in the listing how it works. Well not that i could
understand.
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Usual bollocks. Yes, the cell will produce Hydrogen, but it will use more electrical energy to do so than you will get back by burning the resulting
gas. Result - worse (very very slight, as the unit is so low power) fuel economy.
It's a fundamental law of Thermodynamics, stated simply - "you can't get owt for nowt".

Definately looks like a big steaming pile of monkey poo to me!!! 10mpg increase from the tiny amount of hydrogen produced by a cell of that size (if
any!!)?? Anyway, it doesnt come supplied with the water so is a total con as its not a complete kit!!

The extra load that puts on your alternator will offset the hydrogen generated - otherwise all power stations would just use them to make free power!

IF the electrodes or vessel get too hot then with one part oxygen and two parts hydrogen you get a nice explosion. It took me weeks to remove all the
shards of glass from the walls and ceiling in the class room.

What a load of shit!!!!
"the water level never needs changing"
So where does the uber powerful hydrogen that's supposed to make all this amazing power come from.
Big steam pants.... And the law of thermodynamics says no-way....

STAN MEYER produced the first water powered car in the 70's which violated the first law of thermodynamics and worked. He's now dead.
Wonder who killed him or who ordered it.

for the love of god stop demonstrating your ignorance. Conspiracy theories are for fools, and i feel foolish reading them.
And this idea is still as much nonsense as it was when it was last discussed, last month.

this is totally bollocks...
if it doesn't use water then it hasn't produced any hydrogen...
its that easy....
The above comments are always meant to be from the above persons perspective.

sorry jacko, it does not work to a degree at all. Supply links to proof?
and i dont mean the obvious placebo effect where someone fits it and sees improved mpg; they obviously would drive more carefully when measuring if
expecting an improvement.

A man on the Wirral is offering to sell you a few bits of plastic pipe, a piece of paper with writing on and a jam jar for £104, with a very tempting
discount if you buy more than one and you're even considering it.........

If you want to run an engine on water get a diesel and up the compression ratio to shall we say 2000:1 put water in the tank and try to start it. If
your battery wont nvm just push start it. Your big-end might not last long but just think how much money you save until it blows up. If it
doesn't work at all it's done you're carbon footprint a lot of good and at least I've not charged u anything for the idea.

That's all right then although I think I made a bit of a mistake in saying one kit is £108 when in fact having read it again I believe
they're only £68.....still think it's a liitle dear for a jam jar and a couple of lengths of plastic tubing
