HHO Torch Construction Video

[BirdIView]

Great video. I have a question what size/type ball valve did u use.

[Juhpol]

I can't find the parts for that torch here in Finland (if anyone living in Finland knows where to look for, I'd be clad if you help) I might be interested in buying one :)

[IWPRO]

that would suck, something sit on ur nut. hahahahaha just kinding.

[AsylumET]

after a visit to the local home depot, I found 3 items or similar anyway that you used for this torch. The gentlemen, an engineer who helped me did however tell me that all the parts seemed that they should work just fine except for the ball valve. He is worried that the nylon gasket/bushing inside it will dissolve due to the hydrogen gas.

[AsylumET]

any chance you could make a list of the actual "full" part names used for this torch. For instance you specify a 1/4" barb by FIP which Home depot says they do not carry such an item and their website confirms this.

Gordon Bennett, now I can kick my gas company into touch.

[mossjo14]

will u make a vid of u making your hho cell

[flipster12000]

looks to be around $20 for the fittings. Pretty cheap. Fine bronze wool is about $6. Nice and informative. Oh yes that fitting that you didn't know what kind it is, is a fitting for natural gas. How much more natural can you get than HHO?. Great work. Keep it up.

[PoisonJoviRocker]

w/o the hydrogen cell and hose, how much did the whole tip assy cost you?

[dbrannon79]

Hi, sounds great. how fine is the cutting ablilty for this torch and how much hho output do you need for the best performance?

thanks

[placidbeach]

I'd like to heat a can of water to do calorimeter testing of how much heat is being produced. Any idea or link for making a bunsen burner style torch so I don't melt a hole in the bottom of the can LOL?

[StevoElsupremo]

I cant tell you exactly to what degree but I made this and let me tell you its fucking HOT, we burnt through a peice of 1/2" steel in under a min, so...yeah

[tunegocio1]

Hi, front your e-mail you tell me I need a production minimum of 1.25 liters per minutes to use the torch.

How I measure the liters.

You can help me in this one.

Thaks Again.

Tunegocio1,

If you look at my channel I show you how to make a HHO flow meter. Cost is about $4 -$6 if you buy it all new. Not counting the Lipton green tea. LOL

[tunegocio1]

Hi, I have question,I am new in HHO but I make a HHO cell and the bubble also y make you good idea of the torch.

This is may question wen I try the torch I have back fire and the terminals of the battery was very hot way?

I appreciate your response

Thank you

-make sure you have enough fine bronze wool in the torch.

-pour some water o vinagre in there to make the wool wet

-also, your production may be a factor, you need to produce a minimum of 1.25 liters per minute to use this torch effectively.

-your battery terminals may be hot because your connections are too small to handle the electricity, get bigger connections and bigger wires, try 10 gauge.

[flipster12000]

Connections may also be a little loose and developing resistance. Make sure all your connections are good and tight. If they are threaded through plastic, you might want to put an additional nut to lock onto the threads on both sides of the plastic.

Wow, is o good presentation. I do not know wether I can get the mini torch as you presented here. If not I have build by my self. May be the problem is how to get the bronze wool, the fine bronze wool. I have to find it surrounding me. Hopefully may have all the materials.

Anyway thanks for the presentation.

[SINCLAIRRESEARCH]

hi

Excellent presentation !and extremely informative, thank you , only one question please does the flame get hotter by adding more air? as weve never dabbled with a torch as yet but will do now.

K sinclair

SINCLAIR RESEARCH

[Rain4Fuel]

no, not that we've found. air just disperses the hydrogen so it won't burn as efficiently.

[flipster12000]

HHO is already in a perfectly stoichiometric mix for proper burn. If you are going to add an additional gas for cutting, I would run a second line from an air compressor for blowing away melted metal. Other than that, Rain is spot-on with his response. If you add ambient air into the hho mix, it will slow the burn rate, which will decrease the amount of heat you can apply to your workpiece.

[RokSrakaCar]

great! is it necessary to have bronze wool? does iron wool work as well?

[Rain4Fuel]

steel wool #1 will rust quickly, #2 it conducts heat much faster. You should have fine bronze wool which you can find online. Medium bronze wool doesn't work as well. The idea is to break up the heat of the flame quickly.

[2goodbucs]

I had a hard time finding fine bronze wool in my area. Make sure you check a Marine Boating Store because Home Depot doesn't carry it.

[flipster12000]

Iron wool will actually burn like a fuel so be very careful.

[SmartScarecrow]

thank you ... nicely done ...

[2goodbucs]

Thanks for the tip!! Is there a minimum HHO production requirements to make the torch operational? Right now I am running under 1 liter per minute. Will that be enough?

[Rain4Fuel]

Under 1 lpm may not cut it. Increase your production to at least 1.5 or 2 for a decent torch.

You could also try using a tip with a smaller hole. I just found a web site that sells custom made torch assemblies, but kinda pricy $30-$50. The holes are .013 for up to 1/2 L/m, .017 for up to 1.5 L/m and .022 for 1.5-3 L/m. That might help you decide what size hole you need. He seems to have some pretty good suff over at h2extreme dot com.
