Hydrogen-Oxygen Production Cell

My latest and by far, best design. Powered by a computer power supply that I picked up used for $5, and made with some cheap stainless steel bolts from a hardware store. I apologize for the terrible audio, this was recorded on a cell phone camera, but I think the success I've achieved for such a low cost justifies getting the word out quickly.

Well, it's been a couple years, but now I have a PROPER video camera and a LOT of tools waiting around. Look forward to making some new videos soon.

The problem with this design is that there are to many copper wires inside the water that are facing corroxion by oxidation of copper. Of course you could try to protect all contacts of bolts and wires by covering them with a film of rubber. But that cover could not be suficient, and so you will end up facing coroxion of too many contacts. This design could be succesfull if the problem of corroxion of copper wires a the point of contacts with bolts could be solved. .

@juceagso the bolts can be tightly screwed into a cylinder which contains the solution, thus being sealed and not coming into contact with the solution at all. All connections can be done from outside the container.

Salt? Are you crazy? With Salt you dont make hydrogen-Oxygen, you make hydrogen-chlorine, a lot of the salt stays in the water and combines with the chlorine from the cracked salt and make Hydrogen Chloride a lovely dangererous, corosive and highly poisonous gunk.

The gas produced will be mainly chlorine which is also poisonous.

Oh and why are you dressed like a pimp?

[venomousbird]

I think I already adressed the issue of not using salt, and I can dress however I want. Thanks for commenting.

has the tempurature got any effect? can you break down steam or ice?

[venomousbird]

I'm not sure if ice would carry a charge or not, at any rate, the process does create heat. As the temperature warms, the process works faster, producing more gas, but also draws more current. I've been wondering about whether steam can be electrolyzed myself.

he's the HHO pimp!

this looks like fun for a weekend

FFS MAN! Did you record this with a fish tank on acid?

hurraay for telephones with video function....

LAME.. seems even pimps go poor at some time

i like your idea of using a computer power supply as a source for 12 Volts DC current. . Also the idea of using steel bolts. It's very original to what i have seen before. Congratulations !! 

This solves two main things.

1) I don't want to use my car battery, and I don't have a 12Voltds AC generator (Battery Charger ) available.

2) I can't find apropiate pieces orf stainles steel . What can i use.

And This makes me think ..... Can i use a Power supply to charge a car battery ??

Hey it's a Pimp n HHO! Party!

I like the Italian suit, the peacock feather but, the rose colored glasses set everything off ! I like the layering of the electrodes. With the layering in mind are you able to produce a shorter reaction chamber (takes up less space under the hood or bonnet) more gas on demand?
