The duty cycle is the time the pwm sends electricity to your cell. A 100% duty cycle would be on all the time. A 50% duty cycle would be on 50% of the time. With this info you can know where your electrolyte is. If the duty cycle is over 85% then the electrolyte is getting weak and need to add more. If the duty cycle is lower the 60% then the electrolyte is to strong and need to just add water to lower it down. We want the duty cycle to be between 60% and 85%.
@uawwildbob yes but it replaces a lot of stuff you should put on a vehicle. like the amp meter, good solenoid, breaker and a pwm that does not work well or customer can change because they think if a little hydrogen is good a lot is better. We can lock this in and keep it where we need it. The duty cycle can be used to know where the electrolyte concentration is.
@hooter2006 TRUE . A good HHO cell can cost 500 bucks or more and the hook ups,electrical parts, flash backs and labor put this well over a grand. For a car under normal use this is to much to recover in savings from MPGs. A truck driver will spend somewheres about or more than twice that much for a system on a large rigg. they will have a good chance to get some savings. I have no IDEA what you mean by " the duty cycle can be used to know where the electrolyte concentation is "
@uawwildbob Re:hho cell... (6 months later...) Ur correct, because the ROI is the rub. At the end of the day the question is time to get return on investment. Lets say a car drives 15000 miles annually and gets 22 mpg @$4/gal, that's 15000/22*4=$2727. If you were able to get an additional and consistent 20% reduction in fuel use (2727*.2) then you would realize a savings of $550 annually. Again, that's at $4/gal. If the total capital and maintenance costs are over 1000 then payback is 2 years
@prayfortruejustice Then you have to assume the system will work for over two years. electrolyte costs and other associated labor costs for maintenance will also effect the ROI. Nice device though -- Dave start the engine (and reduce the cost :).
Does anyone know of a PWM device that varies amps (and therefore gas output) based on a feedback signal from ECU on TPS and LOD?

this is one of the best i have seen . But 300 bucks will put most systems over budget
