We finally got a decent circuit working for the first time. Replaced N4007 Diode with Schottky diode and doubled up on mosfets and drivers. Also swapped out acrylic caps for ceramics. These new components can handle the power being used by the electrodes of the HHO generator.

  • Hi hhoforvolts,

    Our test was for the new circuit we built, we don't usually use tap water but it works well enough for testing.

    I watched your video, very interesting. Is it better to use the 2-3 volts? It never occurred to me, but we'll try it.

    Thanks for the comment,

    Chris

  • Uh... No. Well, actually our mentor is schooling us on this (boot strap), but we could use any input you've got. We're clearly learning as we go, but are staying excited about it.

    Please elaborate on what you saw in this video, and what made you think of "current leakage". We are inquiring minds, my friend, and eager for all input on this device.

see all

  • I love it when they say "tap water only.No electrolyte"

    Tap water contains a host of garbage for current to travel on. Chlorine for one!!

    Better off using mud from the pond. Or was it water...

  • I commend you guys for experimenting with electrolyte free water. Advances using only water will truly revolutionize the alternative energy movement. Most people capable of replicating a successful system have access to water without electrolytes. This makes refilling reservoirs much simpler, improves system portability and accessibility to more people in need of these alternative sources of energy. Keep up the good work and stick with pure water.

  • after subscribing and watching almost all the vids, i think you guys are my new best friends!! i would love to build an HHO for tests for myself as well and i have almost any transistor, resistor, capacitor, IC, and power supply any electronical geek could ever dream of! i love all the ideas ive seen so far, keep it up and i hope to see more soon!!

  • Ah, like fluorine and chlorine, I suppose. Fluorine is commonly added to US water supplies and chlorine is used to disinfect. So okay, good point.

    What do you think of white vinegar as electrolyte? I read on another YT video thread that it's a known conc. (5%) of a known acid (acetic) in distilled water, which all looks good to me. And since acetic acid is just composed of C, O, and H, I 'm not worried about any nasty by-products, like poisonous chlorine gas for example.

  • What I am saying is nobody knows what is in that tap water, you need to use a standard electrolyte in distilled water. The gases that you are now collecting may include other than HHO, that's what I am trying to say.

  • Calling a test with tap water "invalid" is a little over the top and claiming it has "no merit" is just argumentative. True, you couldn't publish their video in a leading science journal, but are any of us being paid $100k per annum for this? And *for people in gtwvideo's water district* this test has all the "merit" they could want. If the rest of us have to do some tinkering on our own to find the right electrolyte and concentration, gtwvideo's work is still valuable to us. Sheesh!

  • Your test has no merit, using tap water is invalid. Test must be done with a standard electrolyte. Also using 12v is wrong when you have 3.3 volts avalable now from your PC supply. For more info see my videos.

  • Hi GTW, are you familiar with current leakage?
