@waterwart There was a Canadian company that made electrolysis machines, not cheap though. The problem with water electrolysis is that you need expensive catalysts to separate the gases. Electrolysis is simple enough, put a cathode and anode in water and pass a current through it. That’s the easy part. The hard part is separating the Hydrogen and Oxygen ions. Expensive catalysts are used for the job, making the electrolysis machine very expensive.
@MrEnergyCzar That’s awesome How much did it cost and who did the work?
How come it is SO hard to find one of those solar powered hydrogen generators ? Better yet, I would like to find out how to MAKE one!
were do i put the ghost-buster floor trap out back after its full?
Great video… I converted my home to a net-zero solar powered home that uses no oil or gas….
6:38 key word - ELECTROLYZER.

Good thinking only the price, government revue, and power companies.

i missed the generator too
Michael Strizki built the first one, not these guys! They just want you to think that. I left a comment about that on here a few months ago, and they deleted it! So who’s suppressing information! LOL, they just want you to think they were the first and that they are so great!
Michael Strizki did the first one! Sorry!
this is not Americas first!!!! Michael Strizki built the 1st I do believe!
Hydrogen is explosive… O_o
the hydrogen gas and probably oxygen or air would go into a fuel cell to create electricity. The byproducts of the fuel cell electricity generation process would be water, electricity and heat. So the water that is produced by the fuel cell would be drained back into that bucket of water which supplies the electrolyzer. There is no generator in the system as far as I understand.
HHO is a scam…
The generator is the fuel cell: Hydrogen combines with oxygen in the fuel cell, and gives off hot water (or steam) and electricity. The highly purified water necessary to generate clean hydrogen (without misc sulpher compounds that damage the platinum parts of a fuel cell) is collected for reuse in the little white tank, and returned to the main system.
Judging by the number of PVs, this looks like a $100k+ setup. Still, fantasic work guys!
Excellent ibew electician in alaska. was reading and watching our power hour.when i ran accross this. i have been interested in solar and hydrogen conversion process for some time this has renewed my hopes in finding a solution to the problems for sometime. I am truly excited to find this.. is there a way to get the detaled schematics and blue prints for this PrOJECT?? GREATLY APPRICATED. as i am looking for a way to help the tribes in poverty stricen areas with systems and to develop anaproach
You probably found out already but a fuel cell is an electo-chemical way of producing electricity without a motor or generator.
Thane Heins of Ottawa took his perpetual motion device (the Perepiteia) to Boston to show it to Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor Markus Zahn at MIT’s Laboratory for Electromagentic and Electonic Systems.
I agree. I have a question. I’ve been playing with some H2 and HHO generators. I actually got an H2 equipped 1988 Honda Accord with over 150,000 miles, at the time, with a carb and a transaxle that was slipping and dripping from the moment that I purchased it from a neighbor on the cheap, to achieve an even 50 mpg between Wewoka, OK and Ada, OK, when I re-topped her off on the way to Dallas, after visiting relatives in Wewoka. I haven’t played with the electronics of the HHO. Any tips, or links?
Go, Merchant Marines. I’m in the process of doing something similar, actually. On a serious budget and with a lack of help and assistance, but that’s what is so good about the Internet and YouTube, right? Very nice. I’m going to have to do it a bit differently, but there are many similarities. Great job, guys. Thanks for posting this, too.
So the Hydrogen gas, When used to make electricity is sent to a generator then the exhaust or water is sent back to the collection tank? i missed the generator i guess? ?
Thats a GOOD system..
what size of ac unit is in this house.
Would like to know how much extra it costs to
have this system in place?
