  • can i connect the negative direct to the car body?

  • The cell should go through a relay so that the high amps do not go through the cab... also you should have a way to turn off the cell when the engine is off..

  • Hi john, in this video above you mention that the 2 relays are wired in parallel for protection against a relay welding closed. wouldn't the relays need to be wired in series? in parallel, if one relay opened, and one was welded closed, all current would just go to the closed relay.

  • The two are in Parallel so that both have to be on at the same time... The contacts are wired in series so if one is off no power will go to the cells.... good question

  • John, I think another way to explain how this is possible is the fact that you don't lose much gas mileage (if any) by running your headlights or bright lights. You could also make the focus cell turn off when headlights are turned on in order to not over work the alternator in nighttime driving Or just let it draw more amperage when the lights aren't on. I would think the majority of most driving is daytime anyways-

    Great job so far though! Keep it comin!

  • I had no problem last year with my 30 amp system.. and the "FOCUS" will run lower...

  • John,

    What are the pros and cons to this cell? How is the water protected in colder climates? How many mpg's can you get with a quart of water? What is the horse power created by this method?

    I ask this because I have a 1970 Ford Torino convertable that I would consider converting. Michigan is starting to get on the ball with renewable energy, and I think we could promote the heck out of this with sponsors and such and pay for your time and trip up here. What do you think?

  • The placement of the tube is still changing.. up to the time of completion..John AArons

  • Why would you want to go to the air intake? why not bipass and go directly to the combustion chamber, or injectors? that way no gas is lost and the gas is ignited within the chamber. I think you will lose considerable HHO going through the air intake. or it may ignite before it reaches the spark plugs. I go directly through the injectors and allow pure HHO through. this way gasoline is not needed.

  • The Hydrogen is being sucked into the engine.. there is only two ways it would go ... One.. is that there would be a back fire through the air intake and the other would have to be a spark.. Both of these concerns will be address in my installation... John AArons
