Introduce the HHO into the burner which has an air port in it. (Bunsen? kinda burner) Also "lightback" occurs when there isnt enough gas pressure. ie, the gas is coming slower than the flame speed of the gas.
I was wondering at 2.5 LPM what was your BTU output. I was considering putting 1 of these in a straight copper tube with fake logs or lava rocks for a heat source. Is it a crazy idea from your experience? Thanks JNC
Hi I am trying to make a one burner HHO device with a 1 liter HHO
I cant get it to light. Do I have to use a bubbler and to I need to add some air from an aquarium pump. I could substitute a 1 liter Hydrogen generator if that would work better but wonder if I need those two things I am using the .025 tip banged down.

Thank you for any help that will work and not blow back especially with HHO
This is so B.A. man. I will make one soon. I made a cell for a HHO car device, I may use it to pump it into a burner similar to yours. Saves alot on gas bill, huh?
If you are getting flashbacks then the hole size is to big for the amount of gas you have going thru it ..If you are using mig tips you close the hole up some by tapping the top with a spoon or hammer ..What are you using and how many LPM are you doing ?
well the LPM is variable at the moment I am experimenting with producing hho through a chemical reaction. However would it work to attach a fire arrester? (metal tube with moist steelwool)?
I have a 3 tip burner I keep trying to light but i get flashbacks. Tried stuffing with bronze wool and still flashes back. Does that mean I need to stuff it even more?
I'm using the same heads you are with 1/4" copper. 2 LPM, but maybe it's not enough. I can get a 4 inch flame from a single head, so I thought I could easily light three.
What I done was take a hammer and tap on the tips to close the hole up some..if you have .025 tips to use them normal you need approx. 1 - 1 1/2 lpm per tip ...2 lpm with 3 tips will work fine if you close the holes up so they are bout half the diameter of a .025 tip...
after you put a biscuit tin over it then use it to scramble the eggs. my point being that this gas is unique and therefore when comparing it to other gas cookin or electric cooking you must include all of it properties and take advantage of them to yeild your results.i think the same idea but with some mesh
Yes I agree , I have done a few test with the flames closed off and trapping all the heat it works even better ...I plan to do this on this burner ,and make it when ya sit a pot on it it will be completely closed off..its still a work in progress
i think you have to do water boiling to get an accurate test.either boil or even more accurate boil over as this happens within a moment but water boiling is hard to detect when you would class it as starting. maybe the start of small bubbles could be the measure but i think with a lid on and it boiling over would be really accurate.
True but that has never happened ...There is approximate 1 - 1 1/2 psi on the burner in this video...That is one reason I rarely have a flashbacks or problems with flame burning in the copper tubing
i really appreciate your effort in the build but can i just ask why you just did not coil some quarter inch copper tube as plug it at one end with heaps of very small hole burnt or drilled through it.
maybe you have reason and i want to know as i was going to do just that.
I main reason is I do not have a drill press , I have some micro drill bits just for that tho...the mig tips are easy and cheap ,and easy to adjust the hole on with a hammer ......I dont have the money to buy a drill press but will get one one day ...
just a idea, but along time ago to change natural gas to lp, we used to have to drill out the orifice, with really small drill bits, they could be available at any hvac parts house, you should check around, it would be a whole lot easier drilling it than soldiering? just my opinion, anyway great job, you can really use the hho your making.
i didnt do a test , but just guessing no more than 450 watts maybe 3 lpm ......i will be posting some more videos with data sometime this , i was just showing it off as far as looks go on this one
The lowest I have had 19 tips burn is 2.3 lpm , really small flames ...this is pretty much same as the other 19 tip burner , just done it with copper , its actually the same tips from the other one ..
When the job aint holding out that good , ya have to use what ya have ....If I had the money I would make a really nice and neat professional looking cooker
lol what do you use that for? Watch my save money on fuel with one wire vid, and yes hydrogen can saturate a block and aid in the combustion chamber.

Never use steel wool in a flashback arrestor. The steel wool can ignite, use fine bronze wool instead. Nice job on the burner.

hello every one. i just have 3 questions:
1) why don't you a cast iron primus burner?
2) how much energy was used to make the H2 and the O2?
3) how much energy output?
cheers.
nice welds btw

underneith as well to really absorb the flame!
kissmyhho 2 years ago
the best thing about hho is that you do not need air to burn this gas.
my point being is that you should put a biscuit tin right over the complete burner and then you will get no heat loss at all. regards andy

@jdcmusicman but if your flame burns into the copper you then have a small copper pipe bomb..
also the heat output would be much better with more pressure or flow those flames are tiny

wouldent it cook better?
