In this video, I demonstrate my newly constructed dry cell HHO generator and my micro torch. For the unfamiliar, HHO is a gas mixture of 2 parts hydrogen and 1 part oxygen. The generator produces about 0.41 liters of gas per minute, which is a comfortable amount to run my torch. I demonstrate the various things I am able to melt, including steel, copper, glass, and salt. I am still uncertain of how I will ultimately use this torch, but I am planning some experiments. Stay tuned for future videos.
What happens if you just dunk it in the water?

@LordZarano Good question, 50% of the time the flame just goes out. The other 50% of the time the water causes back pressure, allowing combustion to pass backwards into the torch (flashback). Some time after this video, I added a steel wool flashback arrestor. It does not work as well as a brass wool arrestor would, but it stops most flashbacks as long as it is kept wet.
