hey john luv your videos....I see squigley marks where you have tried drilling ...try a centre punch on the spot you want to drill... so that your drill bit don't go all over the place
Those marks are from other tests... These plates are scraps and have been through the ringer.. Thanks for your interest... this is an old video there are over 400 videos ... please check..
Hello Mr. Aarons, I have a 20 plate (7" x 3-1/8") cell running on a pwm, in ordinary tap water. I have tested it many times and I have come across an anomaly. When I first connect the cell it draws approximately 14 to 16 amps at 14 volts. Gas production is fairly robust. As I watch the meter, the current begins to drop at a steady rate over time. Gas production drops as well. This will continue until the current gets down to 3.2 amps. Gas production drops as well. Is temperature the cause? thx
Using a PWM is tricky and many people don't understand what it is doing.. The idea is great "if you can get the right combo.." but otherwise changing the pulse is doing nothing but changing the amount of current time you are giving the cell..Keep up the good work...John AArons
Hey, just a thought... wouldn't you get an increase in hydrogen production if you moved the positive and negative leads further away from each other, or does that even matter?
When you are talking about elect. moving close to the speed of light and the only thing moving the electrodes apart would do is cause a greater resistance that would make the amps go down and so the voltage (not much)... John AArons
I John, thanks for answer my questions. I live in New Jersey and I would like to join some people to work on this kind of proyect. I have something in mind that can work, but i don't have the knowledge enough to work alone on it. I would like to share ideas with serious people only. thank you John for your help.
this is a kind of fuel that contains oxygen, and that may be the reason why the fire runs into the outlet pipe or feeding pipe line, what can be done about this to avoid fire going into the tank?
If you are referring to a car tank... there are many devices out there called "flash back" valves... that do just that... also many people are running the hydrogen through a bubbler... first... John AArons
Any thing that conducts elect. through the water will work... the stainless steel is used only because it doesn't rust and it's conductivity.. also each metal gives off fumes of it's own... John AArons
I give the size because I am asked... I did not or do I suggest that that is the best thickness. In fact that is one test that I have not done.. The fact is that that size plate works for me and I tend to stick to things that work... John AArons
I can't wait tell I am finally done with school so I can start experimenting with this... keep the videos coming and get the word out. Hopefully more people will get involved to speed up this process and get us away from gas.
I am def not leaving school tell I am done. I took a one year break last year and actually worked at a pretty cool place called Dow Corning. I messed around with alot of chemicals for some cool companies. I am actually going to school for welding engineering but hopefully will get involved in hydrogen technology in my spare time.
I was thinking about your designs and wondered if you followed the tried and true battery design, trapezoid style, you'd get a lot more plate landscape available. Also, you might think about dumping the screws and instead soldier some type of copper bus bar. I'm not comfortable with lots of current and screwed plate in a vibration setting. Trying to help.
Those screws are threaded... they are not going to gap.... This design has been a long time at the table and it works. Copper is not a good idea... Thanks for the input... I have 3 other designs that I will be showing ... Keep watching.. John AArons
Running a engine off a large cell is not the problem... powering that cell is... that is why I am trying to work on both sides at the same time...and if you can use a large cell to bring the millage to over 100 miles per gallon of gas does it matter... John AArons
it seem you have worked alot on this. so i will ask you...the experianced...Can you tell me how many watts(where WATTS = VOLTS X AMPS) would be needed to "hydrogen on demand" fuel a small gasoline engine...like a small 110v camping generator...about 3 or 5 horse????????
A 15 gallon automobile gasoline tank contains 90 pounds of gasoline. The corresponding hydrogen tank would be 60 gallons, but the hydrogen would weigh only 34 pounds.... As for Hydrogen on demand...John AArons
I am sorry for the confusion. I didn't mean the weight of the fuels. I would like to restates my question... how much electrical power would you need to produce enough hydro to run a small engine (say 3 or 5 horse power engine).
The first step to making soap is making lye. You could easily pick up soap at the local supermarket, but you'll probably find great satisfaction in doing it ... John AArons

John, can you "electrolyse" 1 kg of water using less than 4.4 kWh and without loosing water vapor from the jar ?
It is important to know that. How much electricity do you need to split a certain quantity of water (while returning vapor back to the jar)?
(The hidrogen contained in 1 kg of water is worth 4.4 kWh [equiv. combustion heat].)
