HHO gas injection-?

I live in South Africa. Fuel costs rose by more than 30% this year. Found a lot of negative reviews re HHO gas injection. As a theory it should work same as pushing compressed air (turbo) into the intake for more power. If the power is not used to increase speed would it then not increase consumption. Any one who actualy have installed HHO out there.
HHO gas injection-?
The basic SCIENCE is all wrong on these devices.





But just think simply and ask this question: If these devices really worked, why doesn't the car companies install them and sell more cars (and make more money)?





Because it doesn't work.








Good Luck...

Why don't car companies install nitrous?
Reply:I've been asked this question so many times I simply wrote an article to save my fingers from re-typing it over and over.





In short, HHO is a scam and does not work.





Yes, you'll find plenty of people who swear that it does work but they almost always turn out to be the ones who are either trying to sell you an ebook or HHO kit, or who will direct you to a site that does by a "pay per click" link.





To work, these things would have to break the laws of thermodynamics.





And ask yourself -- if they really did work, why are Ford, GM, Toyota, Honda and all those other auto-makers spending billions of dollars every year trying to get the last few percent of fuel efficiency out of their engines rather than using HHO?





The link to my article is below, read all three pages for a full explanation and some simple math that shows why it won't work.





Edit: I notice that those pitching these scams are going through Yahoo Answers and giving a thumbs down to anyone that dares expose them as a rip-off.





If someone provides a link to their own website promoting these products, remember that they're in it for the money, not for your best interests. Snake oil -- avoid!
Reply:Yes, I have and several friends, co-workers and family members.





There are many factors involved in whether an HHO generator will work well or not. The major factors are:


1. what are the electrodes made of, how well will they conduct electricity and how quickly will they corrode?


2. What electrolyte mixture are you using in the water (electrolyte is required to make the water conduct electricity to split the hydrogen and oxygen)


3. how much oxygen are you involving in the gas out to the engine?


4. How many o2 sensors does your vehicle have and how will they react to the extra oxygen they will detect? (sometimes the o2 sensors will detect more oxygen and increase your fuel ratio to compensate for it - I personally have not had this problem, but have heard others record it)





Speaking from my personal experience with the generator I now built, I have literally TRIPLED my gas mileage.





Potential hazards include:


1. Chance of exploding HHO gases if mis-used.


2. Blowing fuses.


3. Water damage to the exhaust over time.


4. Water in the engine - if you are really really careless.





Additional: Common "problems" thrown at you by the nay-sayers, and the narrow-minded smug:





1.*** It takes more electricity to produce than it gives in return with energy.*** = TRUE.=


That is why these are being used along with gasoline engines! (come on folks! think a little).


The electrolysis here is powered by the alternator from the combustion of gasoline. Because the product is HHO (which is 3 times more combustible than gasoline) - less gasoline is required to achieve the same speeds as before THUS - more MILES PER GALLON.





2. ***It's a scam*** = False=.


You might as well call Flashlights, Airlines, Solar Power and Refridgeration scams also. All science is first denied by the narrow-minded. Flip through a good history book, then learn some Chemistry! The electrolysis of water produces Hydrogen. Hydrogen and Oxygen (when not combined in H2O formula) are highly combustible. This can be used in internal combustion engines.


Yes, it takes additional battery power if you want to do this solo without gasoline - but doens't all science require some work on our part? Stop being so Lazy!
