Try to boil some distilled water for mac and cheese btw. be very patient lol.

Vacuum pumps appear to be rated based on in/Hg and CFM. There are 12v vacuum pumps out there intended for use on cars with turbos to supply pwr brakes and other gadgets that work off vacuum. So when it is time to put under hood, suspect you will be looking for something smallish and 12v like these. The pumps appear to pull 3-10 amps. So this is yet another draw on system that increased output will have to outweigh. Something to consider I think.

That's right. The size of the pump should match the motor being driven. The paint sprayer pump I'm playing with now is probably large enough for a V8 ICE.

Would have to think about I would do that. My target is to get a small generator to run off hydroxy only. In my application, it would be tough to fit a vacuum pump but guess its possible. However, if the vacuum could provide dramatic improvment in production using a realitivly small reactor, it might be worth it. So will keep tabs on your progress with this aspect of it.
are you using the venturi in you vehicle

Yes, and I still think that will be the optimum place to feed the HHO output from the vacuum pump once it's installed in the car.

Stupid question but I gotta ask. Water boils at much lower temp at lower pressure. Are you certain that the production you are seeing is hydroxy and not just water boiling off at lower temp due to vacuum? I keep thinking that the way to go with these things is to RAISE the boiling point of water so we can run the reactor at higher temp. So I keep thinking about using a pressure vessel type design.

At 26"Hg vacuum, water without concentrated electrolyte boils at about 125-130*F. With concentrated electrolyte the BP will be considerably higher. No, it's HHO alright.
You'll see. [evil grin]
