Well it has been a very busy last couple of months as we worked like crazy to locate a new building, negotiate the terms, remodel the whole front end, then move into the place. All while trying to maintain some sanity and keep the manufacturing going.

We have finally been able to catch our breath and are just about settled in…few little small things but overall we are in full swing as we prepare for the next big launch of new products.

Here are a couple of photos of our shop and office:

If you live in the area- come on by and see us or pick up an HHO generator for your own car!

Thanks!

As many of you who follow my blog postings know, I love to hear our success stories from our customers. Nothing makes my day more, especially if it has been a busy week or a heavy tech support kinda day.

1994 Ford Falcon similar to what George got 50 mpg in using our HHO generator

Well this just came in to my email box from our long time customer George SatXXX (last names withheld for privacy) from over in Australia, where we send a surprising number of HHO kits. Now, George became a customer quite awhile ago when he bought my instruction manual teaching people how they can build their own HHO Generator from readily available parts. Rather than hunting them all down, he bought our Big box of parts and proceeded to build his own, install it and test it. Now this is older technology using wet cell type hho generator, but it still works and is a great way to get started on a tight budget. It is also a really good way to get educated on the whole technology…

I hadn’t heard from him in a long time, and recently he came back and ordered our professional grade Hybrid Cell HHO Generator kits. I assumed he had gotten enough results that he wanted to take it to the next level…so we sent him one out straightaway.

Well, lo and behold, George sent me this fantastic email that put a grin on me from ear to ear today - this is why I love my job and work 15 hour days…I’ll let him explain it in his own words:

“Hi Bob,

Thanks for the advice . In the meantime I instaled the 772 system  in our car. Naturally since I am not an auto electricians I had a good friend auto electrician do the electric work for me. I just came home from the first 100km (60 miles) trip. It was a round town and partially 20-30 km straight trip. I am totally astonished about the fuel consumption. My car which is a Ford Falcon 1994 with 235000km on the clock consumes normally 15 l per 100 km which is 16 miles per gallon. With the electrolizer I have built out of PVC I had the improvement to  28 miles per gallon.

However with your new 772 system I have an astonishing 50 miles per gallon. I am thrilled to bits.

It will only take a few month of driving to get all the money back what we spent to buy your invention and have a car which has a better pick up a cleaner engine and no exhaust fumes pollutin our environment.

I congratulate you and thank you for passing you invention on. I hope you will make many people happy and contribute greatly to a cleaner environment.

Yours truly Georg SattXXX”

You are welcome George, you are welcome. And thank you for making my day!

Sincerely,

Similar to the Itasca motorhome that got a 30% increase using our hho generator

I got this email today sent to me from one of our customers this weekend.  This was a tough one because it was a huge 35′ long  Itasca motorhome with a hefty 6.4 L Ford V-10. I wasn’t sure what kind of  result he would get, but with that size vehicle- any increase is good.

It was a long email, so I will let him tell it it some of these excerpts below:

“Just thought I would let you know I have the 773 installed in my 2000 Itasca 35′ motorhome. with 75700 miles on it - Last year we put on about 18000 miles. Engine 6.8L V10 Ford on and F550 Chassis

took it for a break in run - the gas tank is hard to fill so I may be out a little as far as how much gas it took - but anyway I topped the tank and went for a 60 mile ride (actually it was 59.3 miles) at 57 MPH using cruise most of the time we had 24 miles of about 20 MPH crosswinds and about 15 miles of the same tailwind - the rest was headwind.

It used 5.3 gal US (actually 20.1 liitres) 87 octane (topped it up again)

This works out to 11.29 MPG

The best we have ever done was 8.8 MPG with Lucas additive and 91 octane
Mind you my motorhome is empty at this point so we will have to see what it is like once it is loaded. But we have never done that high empty or otherwise.

The engine runs as smooth as ever I did notice that the exhaust pipe sticking out the side was very hot. (seemed hotter than usual?)

It also smelled different - as in didn’t smell hardly at all.”

Notice he said that the 8.8 was done with 91 octane and a fuel additive and the test he ran was using 87 octane gas and no additive. Either way- that adds up to almost 30% on a huge motorhome using just one of our 773 HHO generator kits!

Great to hear- keep up the great work Henry!

I was recovering from a little mini trip with some of my family to Yosemite today (got sick from bad Pork at a restaurant in Mariposa, I think). I finally was able to get up enough energy to start going through the 300 emails from being gone a few days.

Buried in the middle of them all was this phenomenal result from another one of our customers, Jay Rezexxxs. We had talked back and forth for awhile almost a month ago - he was interested in getting one of our dual units for his 1995 Freightliner Big Rig. We were still testing our newest unit for truckers, I mentioned he might want to wait for that if interested…

A picture of a 1995 Freightliner

Jay opted to start with just a 773 HHO generator kit instead. This was his best option right now due to a restricted budget and the need to start saving money on diesel costs (on the rise again). I told him I wasn’t sure what he would get with that small of an HHO Generator on big 330 horsepower Cummins M-11, but it was at least a start…

Was I in for a surprise! I will let Jay’s email tell you the story…(excerpt from longer email)

“Hi Bob,

Jay Rezexxxs here. I wanted to give you a little feedback on the 773 I installed in my big rig. This is preliminary because I have only had it in and running in my truck for 3 days now. Figures may change some in the coming weeks depending on how heavy or light the loads I carry will be and the terrain (mountains vs. flat ground). My truck is a 1995 Freightliner. The engine is a Cummins M-11. It\’s a small engine in the world of big rigs with about 330 horespower. As a truck driver I am always checking my fuel mileage on a daily basis. I do this by using a measuring stick. I dip the stick into the fuel tank and I measure how many inches of fuel are on the stick. I know that for every inch of fuel there is 5.83 gallons of fuel. Before installing the 773 I was averaging 6 miles per gallon. The first day I had the 773 running I was averaging 8.5 mpg! The second day I averaged 9 mpg!! and yesterday, the third day I averaged 8.75 mpg!! How awsome is that! I can\’t wait to get another 773 and have the dual set up! I also got a few of the other drivers interested after the first day…”

I was floored! Why a 773 kit could help out such a big diesel rig get a mileage increase of almost 50%! I flat out told Jay I really did NOT expect that result at all, but of course I am extremely excited to see it.

This has me energized and wanting to see more truckers try out our units to get back to us with on their results too! It also motivates me to speed up our research and testing of our final design parameters with the new HHO Generator engineered for truckers specifically…

Stay tuned! Great things as we continue to move forward…

Back in January, I posted an article about the poorly researched and written “expose’ ” in Popular Mechanics online, authored by an embarrassed Mike Allen - who was/is the “expert” auto editor.

Here is that article in case yo didn’t see it: http://hhokitsdirect.com/articles/hybrid/my-popular-mechanics-online-hho-challenge.html

His poorly researched slam of the HHO industry caused me to write him and challenge him to a dual of sorts- one where i take all the risk- provide the HHO generator, the installation, even fly out at my own expense. If it worked- his only requirement would be to write a follow up article about HHO, correcting his false accusations. If it didn’t work, well, then i would apologize and he gets the credit for the article, and no one loses but me.

Well, here we are in April, I thought I would take a quick jaunt over and maybe stir up a few feathers…guess what I found?

NOTHING. They have now removed ALL comments to this shard of an article, leaving the article intact, but NO COMMENTS. Not only that, they have now made it mandatory to receive a password/user name before posting any comments…hmmmmm something stinks here.

Here’s the link now: http://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/alternative-fuel/gas-mileage/4276846

Is the fact they have no comments (after deleting over 300 comments I believe) just because they don’t approve any on this article?

I will have to try and sign up and see if they block me from posting a new challenge…

I got this email today from a customer in Brisbane Australia who is just starting to test the whole HHO Generator experience. He decided to try it in his old Diesel Powered Farm Tractor with remarkable results in cleaning up the smog-choking black smoke….

Here are a few excerpts…

“I’m currently a member, having bought the ebook, built and installed my first brute force system into an old, sick and unloved ‘83 3litre Nissan Patrol Diesel.

It used to produce enough black smoke to rival Icelandic volcanoes, but now after 2.5 tanks of diesel it has improved remarkably, running cleaner and slightly cooler. For an old farm truck its a massive improvement.

Next on the list is my English toy, a ‘67 Rover P5 3litre petrol and then the farm tractor. Older technology I can deal with, but my real question relates to our new cars. ‘07 Nissan X-Trail 2.5 petrol and ‘05 Hyundai 2.9 CRDi diesel 4WD. Both have ECU units managing the fuel systems. I need to buy two HHO-772 units for them, as the home-built units JUST WONT FIT!

Also I’m quite keen to be able to try to create a secondry income from this through affilation and/or sales, after I have my own units installed and can prove/show that it works. Are dealers able to buy units at a better price than normal”

Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Regards, John Z., Brisbane, Australia.

Thanks John! I love how HHO gas cleans up the dirty spewing emissions from cars and trucks! If this is all it did- it would be worth putting an HHO generator on every vehicle…thankfully, they also increase fuel mileage!

Yes- our products also work with new cars using either the efie or mileage chip…

Yes! You read that correct. I’m not talking about 67% increase here, I am talking 67 MPG using our 772 HHO generator and a mileage chip!

What was it in you ask? A Honda? A Toyota? Hyundai, Subaru, or Mitsubishi?

NOT even close! How about a 1997 Oldsmobile Delta 88? Unbelievable? That’s what I thought too. Here are the very specific details from our friends Paul and Sandy over at Energy Evolutions in Florida.

The project car with HHo generator and mileage chip

First, let me say this was NOT smooth sailing from the beginning. In fact the first mileage reports were disappointing, almost non-existent…so we went through a series of checklists: Power connections good? Fuse OK? HHO Generator making gas? Reservoir and electrolyte properly filled and mixed?
Everything should have been fine, but for some reason the mileage was not there….

We finally narrowed it down to a faulty mileage chip. Even though it was new, for some reason it wasn’t calibrating properly. So I had Paul mail it back to us, and we flashed a brand new chip for him- double checking all the parameters and running diagnostic checks on it just to make sure. I also included a Digital Quad Efie just in case the mileage chip did not function properly this time. It was the second set as the first one disappeared in UPS transit somehow…

Well- that appeared to fix the problem! I will let Paul’s email to me today tell the rest of the story…

Bob:

Well, Sandy and I had an exciting day.  We got our chip installed and calibrated.  Then we did our standard 140 mile (Exactly) test trip as we always do.  Here’s a break down of the “Standard Test Trip”:

- Fill car up at the Mobil station at the corner of Flamingo and Griffin Road (Two clicks on the top off).

- Drive down Griffin to I-75 N

- Drive 65 MPH on Cruise Control down I-75 N to the Florida Route 27 N

- Drive 65 MPH on Cruise Control down FL 27 N (except where otherwise posted)

- Pull into McDonalds in Clewiston and park in same rear parking space

- Turn engine off, and go in and order cheap lunch

- Return to Cooper City, FL via same route, backwards, using same speed and driving techniques.

- Stop at same Mobil Station, and same pump to fill up using same technique

- This total trip is Exactly 140 Miles.

So, here’s the breakdown:

- Nothing hooked up, stock from factory - 30 MPG  ( I was impressed with this and never thought we could do better)

- With the HHO System installed in “Best Manner” - 38 MPG (Not bad - But, needed to do better)

- With Milage Chip installed & Calibrated - (SIT DOWN NOW) - 67 MPG

Can you imagine a thirteen year old 4,000 pound piece of American Luxury steel (1997 Olds 88) going down the road at 67 MPG.  Well, Sandy and I are still not believing our eyes.  So, later this week we’ll make another “Standard Test Run”, just to be sure.

Enjoy,

Paul Hendee

Wow! Something must have been in the air yesterday… two encouraging emails from our customers in one day = great day!

HHO Generator installed in front of 2002 Nissan Xterra

This is an excerpt from Gabriel in Africa. It is his first install and was a bit challenging the first time, taking him a bit longer than expected (the first is always the hardest - they get easier as you understand the process). You can see his post back in January here: Great HHO Generator Mileage Increase Testimony

Gabriel has been corresponding back and forth, having trouble with the efie and mileage losses, not gains (sometimes this happens- the car computers are different everywhere and we have to take time to figure it out…) It is always frustrating when we get a stubborn car, but this is more proof that if you stick with it- you can get the victory…

(I think he is referring to 120 mph in kph…but from the looks of it he has almost doubled his mileage going from 70 to 132 miles…)

Here is an excerpt from that email…

Hello Bob,

Top of the morning to you. Since our last correspondences, i have made a lot of changes to my HHO system. I am still testing and so cannot give you a final result now. However, over this last weekend, I had filled my tank on Saturday and traveled a distance of 132miles on high speed. My average speed was 120mph. On arriving back home, my fuel gauge was at “half-tank” and my mileage was 132. I was so pleased. during the whole journey, there wasn’t any form of degradation in speed (performance) and fuel economy. Prior to the installation of the HHO system, I at best, made 70miles (and so bad a performance) on a half-tank.

What changes did I make?

* I changed the electrolyte of the HHO generator and made it new.

* I increased the current passing through the system from 12A to 22A (by adding more NAOH)

*I changed my air-filter (the former was torn and I didn’t even know it)

I however think that the major change that i made was the production of more HHO into the system. At 22amps, I was generating so much gas (I dont have an accurate reading yet) that condensation forms very rapidly at the tail pipe when I do a cold start in the morning.

Thanks Gabriel! I have recommended this to several people who have tested and are having problems- clean out the the system. Sometimes it helps to soak the generator with CLR (Calcium Lime Rust) cleaner. then flush and refill with clean water and fresh electrolyte.

So for those of you having a few challenges with your installation, be encouraged. It’s worth it when you start seeing gas savings like this….

2009 Yukon with HHO Generator

I just got this great email in yesterday from one of our customers that had bought our 772, and came back to get the mileage chip for his 2009 GMC Yukon.

That’s a BIG vehicle - wasn’t sure how the 772 would fare…

Hugh used to live here in the Bay Area and comes back regularly from Texas where he resides now. He was in town a couple weeks ago and called me- wanted to stop by and pick up a mileage chip before heading back home. We talked for an hour at the shop - really nice guy.

This is an excerpt from the email he sent me…

Hi Robert, It was a pleasure meeting with you a couple of weeks ago. I have now arrived in Texas and was pleased with my gas improvement. I had a 67% improvement with my 772 Generator in my Yukon….

…I would like to talk with you further about the possible Distributorship in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. I also have received some inquiries about prices for the units.
Whenever you have the time, give me a call or send me a email back and we can discuss it further. I can come back to the Bay Area at anytime also.
Thanks, Hugh Carter

67% increase on a Yukon- that is what I like to see!

Keep sending me the good reports people! I want our customers to see what is possible with a good installation, a great HHO Generator, and some time…

Wow! March is roaring by and so much is happening it’s making my head spin! I haven’t even had time to post lately, so much is developing…

Lots of new stuff coming: upcoming events; possible Midwest road trip in the works; upgraded line of generators, new building negotiations to expand our facilities and hire more people; negotiations for some major contracts; secret contacts of some old timers that I am in talks with that blow me away…etc.

Whew! Keep your eyes open my friends, and keep checking back here regularly (I have to figure out how people can subscribe to this thing) because it is going to be an incredible year for us here at Transitional Technologies, LLC . And YOU are going to benefit from all the innovation coming.

We will be launching a second line of generators soon (a bit more expensive because of the extra tooling/machining/materials involved), but they will be setting an even HIGHER bar for the HHO industry. Look out people- lots of fun stuff on the way that will blow you away…can’t say anymore than that yet.
