HHO or Brown’s Gas Injection – Truth or Urban Legend? Part 2
After researching several online sources for e-books on “running a car on water” and watching numerous Youtube videos, I settled on what seemed to be the most informative site on the technology. www.hho-hybrid.com. Instead of showing pictures of using a mayonnaise jar with some wire, steel mesh and hose, the hho-hybrid site discusses the use of a machined cylinder lying down horizontally to create the most surface area for electrolysis. It also stated that their system could be used with a gas or diesel engine. Since I run all turbo-diesel vehicles, I was curious to learn more about using this technology both with gas and diesel combustion engines.
I purchased the e-book for $30 and hoped to get a link to download the e-book after paying. The delivery method was not automated but I did receive the e-book by email within two days of ordering. I won’t give away the contents of the e-book but suffice it to say that the first two-thirds of the book described in detail how an internal combustion engine works. A more detailed version of this content is available for free by going to www.howstuffworks.com and searching on “internal combustion engine.” At the end of the e-book, they talked about the components necessary for building the HHO kit but left out some detail explaining that it was proprietary.
The last few pages does have pictures of the components that come in their $250 HHO Conversion kit. The pictures and component list is enough information to build the kit but for gas engines, they also show pictures of a printed-circuit board and wires for a component that fools the emissions control system on a gas car to improve the fuel mileage based on the injected hho gas from the kit. There is not enough information in the book to build these components.
After reading the entire e-book, I was disappointed to find that there was no mention of a diesel engine throughout the book. I sent an email to the support desk for the company and received a prompt reply explaining that there aren’t details on using it with a diesel engine but it will work if the engine is non-turbo. They also stated that they might be able to get a turbo diesel engine to work with the kit and would be happy to help with this. I’m assuming this would be for a consulting fee.
I’m considering taking the research one step forward by building or buying the kit and trying it on a gas car. I need to find a guinea pig with a gas car that is willing to experiment or I will have to wait until I can find an inexpensive gas car to play with.
Stay tuned for more analysis once I acquire or build the kit and install it on a vehicle!
