this is a system i just finished installing in my daily driver. i had a really nice write-up typed out but youtube had a retart moment and lost it all, and since i'm lazy i'm going to truncate the information.
the cell outputs about just over 1 liter a minute, aroudn 3.8 DCV and 30-35 amperes. after installing this system, i have seen immediate and noticable gains in fuel efficiency.
city driving, i save about 6-8 mpg, highway im saving about 5-6 mpg. the only change in these readings is the installation of the HHO system. thats it.
corection: the system draws about 10-11 amps from the alternator, and drives the cell @ around 40 amps. ampere flow is key to producing hydrogen. whats important to note here is that im only working with 32 square inches of plate area, and keeping excess voltage to a minimum, blasting the cell with almost 35-40 amperes, and still producing over a liter a minute. thats basically three smacks plates, positive in middle, negative on outside. ( P-N-P ) configuration. distilled & KOH electrolyte.....super saturated mixture.
Good. Doing anything lately?

i replicated chris's h2so4 + znfe = znso4 + feso4 + h2 + fe reaction, and within five days a 5" by 5' roll of 1/4" hardware clotch was disintegreted into a small pile of wire and a bunch of crystals at the bottom.
now only to turn it into a hydrogen battery.... a few valves, bulk tank, electrodes.... ohyeah...
also been thinking about stirling/organic rankine hybrids

Yes your doing the voltage thing correctly, NO 12 VOLTS

do the math:
13.8 * 35 amps = 483 watts. putting a 35 amp load on your alternator will surely burn it out.
now with the dc-dc converter- we have a slightly different situation cause the converter has losses.
input:
13.8 * 11 = 151.8 watts consumed total
and @ the cell we have:
3.7 * 35 = 129.5 watts.
BooYah!
