My Popular Mechanics HHO Generator Challenge?
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…

The Saints Take the SUPERBOWL-What HHO Field Can Learn From It!
Well, no matter which team you were rooting for, the Superbowl this year was phenomenal! After a rocky first half, the Saints came back to bury the Colts in a fantastic victory.
Now, many of you may be asking - what in the world does this have to do with the subject of HHO Generators? My Answer?
Everything!
Let me explain….
Many were saying that the Colts were going to sweep it, though many wanted to see the under dogs (New Orleans Saints) take it, since this was their first official time to the Superbowl. The Saints were looked at as unseasoned, not ready for prime time, possibly unable to handle the pressure of one of the most watched events on TV.
Now let’s look at the HHO industry…
Several years ago there were only a few lonely YouTubes and some older forums talking about using Hydrogen gas separated from water to help increase mileage in vehicles. Suddenly gas climbed like a rocket and pain at the pump made people furious at the Oil Companies as well as the Auto Manufacturers.
Suddenly out of nowhere this small seemingly insignificant player was all over the internet and over 40,000 youtube videos popped up in one year.
Successes starting popping up everywhere, but due to the newness of the technology, many had problems as well, and lacking a determination to pursue an answer, they began to throw up their hands and scream “SCAM!”
Other people began hearing about this underground movement called HHO Gas, and as they searched, many began seeing as many blogs claiming scam, as they did people claiming a success. Soon the Naysayers were screaming from the mountain tops about how impossible this new technology was and all the math starting popping up proving beyond a shadow of doubt that HHO Generators could not work.
And yet quietly, in the background, hard working, persevering men and women continued improving, building, testing, and proving that the right design, the right application, the right installation could work. The “flawed technology”, the impossible formula breaker, The underdog HHO technology, was playing big time. With successes popping up almost everyday, the scammer screamers were getting less vocal in the evidence of others.
Flash forward to today.
Like the Saints in the first half of the Superbowl today, HHO has had a rocky first half…
But get ready- because the second half is going to rock your socks off!

My POPULAR MECHANICS Online HHO Challenge!
Here is my recent challenge to the horribly researched and errantly written article by Mike Allen, Popular Mechanics Senior Automotive Editor…
He wrote an article essentially claiming HHO generators were a scam, they didn’t work and he would prove it by installing one. Then he installed the absolute worse design he could possibly find…here is a picture of it:
What an absolute piece of garbage. No wonder he didn’t get any results!
At the end of the article he admits that he didn’t do anything to adjust the O2 sensors or help the car deal with the HHO gas, but apparently that didn’t matter. Not that the piece of junk he installed would have put out enough gas to light a cigarette let alone trip the computer…
So here is my formal challenge to POPULAR MECHANICS online and Mike Allen- which I have publicly posted here for the second time: http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive/how_to/4276846.html
322. RE: Water-Powered Cars: Hydrogen Electrolyzer Mod Can’t Up MPGs
Website: http://www.hhokitsdirect.com
I made this challenge about a year ago- and I’m going to make it again. This poorly researched article used worst design possible and did a bad installation.I’ve seen Mike Allens’ comments about fuel saving devices. SO put your money where your mouth is Mike. I will fly out to your shop or wherever you did the installation for this so-called article; I will install one of our newest Hybrid Cell Hydrogen Generators on a car we both agree on that you can provide (some cars do better than others with HHO); I will INSTALL it the right way (I’ll teach you how it’s done); and I will be there for the testing and mileage phase ( I will be their to audit tests only - make sure there is no funny stuff going on, you can provide your own independent tester; If I win and the car gets an increase in mileage due to our HHO kit, then you owe me a lengthy article and write up on my company and our kits and a rebuttal to your errant article here. If you win you get to report that and redeem your name that has been somewhat sullied by your article here on Popular Mechanics. SO basically - you have NO RISK in money or time, if you truly believe this articles results. I, on the other hand risk the cost of my plane ticket, hotels, cost of my HHO Generator kit and my reputation, which has been hard won in this industry. By the way, if I win and you do a good article on HHO technology in general, I will let you keep the gas saving awesome Hybrid Cell I install. I challenge anyone else to match that deal. Now you have no excuse - put up or you expose yourself… The gauntlet is thrown down - are you man enough to pick it up? Bob Volk
Will they take me up on it? Who knows? So far no takers- this is my second challenge because I KNOW HHO WORKS.
C’mon Mike- man up.
Let’s do this…give me a chance to redeem the HHO industry with a fair chance fight…no wimpy, girly electrolyzers from my company - we’re all beef baby.

Hybrid Cell HHO Generators
HHO Fuel – Water to Gas
HHO fuel isn’t exactly running our cars on water but it is as close as we can get right now. Hydrogen is a great fuel enhancer in that it increases the fuel efficiency and power of gas combustion and Diesel engines and in these tough economic times that can be a real life saver.
With gas prices rising seemingly every day it would be hard to find anyone who wasn’t looking to get more for their dollar at the pump. On Demand Hydrogen Generators can be the solution and HHO gas enhancement is the way to go.
HHO fuel is not a substitute for gasoline but and enhancer. Water is converted into gas and then introduced into the induction system of a fuel injected gas powered engine. It is like having air on steroids. The increased oxygen and hydrogen content of the fuel allows the engine to burn the gas more efficiently using less gas to power your motor.
The air fuel mixture in a combustion engine is what keeps your engine running smoothly and efficiently. If one of the components of that ratio either gas or air is off a bit, then you will experience less gas mileage, loss of power and a rough running motor. Hydrogen works to accelerate the combustion process and make the gas or diesel fuel combust more efficiently.
How efficient is HHO fuel? Users of HHO gas report increases in fuel mileage of between 15-40% and power increases of 5-20% on very little water. Those are impressive number for sure. Also as important as the fuel efficiency and power increase is the effect on the environment. Hydrogen is a great fuel alternative for the Eco system. It decreases the amount of harmful emissions and help keep the air clean. Arguing against HHO gas would be tough as it really is an amazing advancement in the motor vehicle world.
Probably one of the best things about HHO fuel is it is easy and cheap to produce. All you need is an easy to install kit which can be all set up in your vehicle in just one day. It doesn’t matter what size your gas engine is from 1.4L to 5.7L there is an HHO gas kit for your motor. You can start saving fuel and protecting the environment right away. It’s cheap too. The only thing you will sacrifice with hydrogen gas use is the trips to the gas station!

EFIE (Electronic Fuel Injection Enhancer) for Ultimate Fuel Mileage Gains
If your vehicle is 10-15 years old or newer, chances are you have a fuel injection system for the gas. The O2 sensors regulate how much fuel is added to the engine by measuring the amount of O2 (oxygen) in the exhaust system. If you add an HHO kit or even just the simplest of hho generators to a car that has O2 sensors, and you DON’T use an EFIE, most likely your mileage will go down instead of up.

This is a simple EFIE circuit board for one O2 sensor
When purchasing an HHO gas saving kit for your vehicle you want to make sure it has an EFIE (Electronic Fuel Injection Enhancer) with it otherwise you could end up getting worse gas mileage than you had without an HHO conversion system.
Even though there are relatively few components need in an HHO system this is one you want to make sure you have and that it is right for the system. You may need a dual EFIE system depending on your car, if it has 2 O2 sensors and even a QUAD EFIE system if your car has 4 sensors. It is all about getting the right air/fuel mixture to make your engine as efficient as it can be.

Having the correct EFIE (Electronic Fuel Injection Enhancer) means never having to worry about your HHO system producing the right gas. You can be assured the quality of HHO gas you get from a conversion system utilizing an EFIE will always contain the perfect mix.
With gas fuel injection systems the key is the ratio between how much gas and how much air is used. HHO stands for 2 hydrogen + 1 oxygen the chemical designation used for water makeup. The way it works is the gas is extracted from the water producing an oxygen enriched mixture that burns more effectively when introduced in the induction system.
Combustion engines rely on that correct mixture to run smoothly and with an EFIE (Electronic Fuel Injection Enhancer) you can ensure that your engine gets the most out of gas. Typically, an HHO system can increase your gas mileage by 15-40% and can increase the power as well. This means great savings in gas and a more powerful engine. More and more people are going the HHO route and enjoying all the conversions have to offer. The EFIE is an integral part of the system and when one is not used you risk voiding all those great benefits.
Installing the EFIE (Electronic Fuel Injection Enhancer) is just as easy as installing the system itself. Just follow the comprehensive and easy to follow instructions that come with the kits and you will be on your way to producing high quality oxygen rich hydrogen gas. It only days a day to do the full conversion with EFIE and you can start saving gas immediately. Hydrogen gas use is also environmentally friendly so you are doing your part for the environment as well as saving gas and increasing your engine power.

Increase Mileage – And Power with Hydrogen
These days just about everyone is talking about ways to increase mileage and get more efficiency from their vehicles. All kinds of products have shown up on the market claiming to increase gas mileage, but unfortunately not many of them actually work. Some people have come up with their own systems like, coasting on hills or not coming to complete stops. That is just plain dangerous. There is a simple way to increase gas mileage as well as power. By going hydrogen you can experience a significant increase in gas mileage while also getting some extra power. And, it is safe, inexpensive and easy to do.
All you need to increase mileage is a commitment to install an HHO gas conversion system. HHO stands for 2 Hydrogen + 1 Oxygen and is the designation for water. That doesn’t mean we are talking about using water to substitute fuel, what it means is that we are enhancing conventional gas to burn better and more effectively.
How it works is that the hydrogen generator produces gas from oxygen that is introduced into the induction system of a fuel injected gas engine making for a more clean and efficient result during the combustion process. This is where the gas mileage and power increases come from. Fuel to air ratios in a combustion engine make all the difference between a smoothly running motor and an inefficient one.
The opportunity to increase mileage that you can expect with a hydrogen conversion is 15-40% and your power increase will be anywhere from 15-20%. Those are big differences and they are easy and cheap to achieve too. Any engine between 1.4L – 5.7L can enjoy the benefits of hydrogen conversion. All you have to do is install a HHO conversion kit in your vehicle.
Within a day you can be enjoying all the benefits of hydrogen. The conversion comes in a kit with easy to follow comprehensive instructions that anyone can install.
With everyone talking about how to increase mileage there has been a rush to market of ineffective products that can only frustrate the user and actually damage their motors. Don’t fall into that trap. Go with something that is known to work.
Hydrogen is effective, safe and inexpensive. There is also another great aspect to using hydrogen to enhance fuel consumption and that is that it is easy on the environment. So, you can save money and be environmentally conscious as well.
HHO Gas Generators
HHO Gas Generator – Make Hydrogen Cheaply and Easily

HHo Gas Generator Kit
You probably have heard all the talk about hydrogen being used to enhance gas mileage and how a HHO gas generator can save you lots of money in fuel.
Well, it is all true, with advancements in technology and consumer demand for alternative fuel products hydrogen has become a big player and with good reason too. Hydrogen is the perfect way to get better fuel economy and power increases. It’s easy to make, good for the environment and cheap too.
You may have already noticed how many hydrogen powered vehicles are out there on the road today and you can be assured a lot more are on their way.
An HHO gas generator may be just what you need to maximize your vehicle’s fuelefficiency and it is a heck of a lot cheaper and less of a hassle than buying a new car. In this economy going with HHO gas production for your vehicle could be the smartest thing you can do. The way HHO fuel works is the generator creates gas from water and delivers it into the induction system of a fuel injected gas combustion motor. The enriched oxygen helps to burn the gas more efficiently causing better gas mileage and more power.
Buying and installing an HHO gas generator is cheap and easy and you can do it yourself. There are a couple of ways to start enjoying all the benefits of producing your own HHO gas. You can buy a kit that has all the components you need to build a generator including a very specific instructional video. Or, you can build it from scratch by following and easy to understand and well thought out DVD. Both ways are very cheap and you can be making your own HHO gas faster than you would believe.
The efficiency you can achieve with the fuel produced by an HHO gas generator ranges from 15-40% increases in gas mileage and a 15-20% increase in power on very little water. The savings can be extraordinary and users of HHO fuel report their motors have never run better. That only makes sense as internal combustion gas powered engines rely on the perfect gas to water ratio to perform at their best. HHO fuel is burned more efficiently than regular fuel and regulates your motor to maximize efficiency, economy and output. It’s the best thing next to actually running on water!
Invention Versus Innovation
This is a comment I posted in BusinessWeek.com as a response to their article on Invention vs. Innovation:
Innovation is taking inventions and streamlining them into the market place. Inventions are new developments and products/processes entirely. I think we have become very innovative centric, but industries that have been successful on past inventions do not pursue those radically different from their own original ones.
Take the auto industry- if the US auto makers were “INVENTIVE” instead of continually refining their innovations, they would not be needing billions of dollars in bail out money.
Case in point: There are far more fuel efficient engines that have been invented recently, yet the big three don’t want invention - they just want to innovate the same old tired Otto cycle engine from a hundred years ago. Stir the soup, add some new ingredients, but don’t replace it with a better, more nutritious food.
Their closed loop computer systems make it difficult for hybrid fuels such as hydrogen generators to affect the mileage of the engines like they could if the industry was open to breakthroughs.
Inventors have responded with new inventions and the HHO industry continues to break wide open, even though it is fought with disinformation and lies from industries that don’t WANT invention, they only want to add little innovations. But the market wants better ideas, better more radical inventions- it is no longer content with the slow moving, Bermuda short wearing, “good Ole Boys” philosophy.
Our mindsets MUST change if we are to transition into a better, more energy efficient society.

HHO Generators + Fuel Efficient Engines=Winning Combo
As we continue to develop new and better HHO kits, generators and parts, others are busy inventing more fuel efficient engines that save gas by redesigning the engine from the ground up. Hugo Touro’s comapny, Tour Engine, Inc, is doing just that.
He has been developing what he calls the “Split Cycle” engine which is quite brilliant in its simplicity. Below are some photos from his prototype:

As you can see, he is using one side of the engine to draw fuel/air in and compress it (easier to compress cold air), then pushing that mix into the adjoing cylinder where it is immediately combusted and exhausted.
Here is a photo of one of the working prototypes:

Pretty cool idea. He is currently looking for the next phase of funding…
My goal is to be able to combine the incredible energy of hydrogen in the form of HHO gas with the more fuel efficient engine designs to create a fuel efficient, gas saving power source that will help us transition from present technologies into the future…stay tuned as we progress forward.

HHO Kit BEATS expensive Nissan Altima Hybrid
Here is a recent article from hybridcars.com about the New Nissan Altima hybrid (The Altima Hybrid is essentially a Toyota hybrid wrapped in Nissan’s attractive packaging) which is priced at $25,000, about $4000 MORE than a regular Altima.
You see- this is my argument, and continues to be what I will preach on. People will spend $4000 to get a 15% increase in their mileage, but don’t realize that they can spend only $800 and get the at LEAST the same, but generally far better than that using an HHO kit!
Our typical users save 20%-40% but far more are getting that40-50% range (those that use our best selling kit - $797 Platinum Turbo series HHO generator )
SO for 1/5 of the cost of an electric hybrid, you can get BETTER results and you can use your own car - I challenge any of the manufacturers to beat that with their hybrids!
I’ll put a water hybrid conversion up against an electric hybrid conversion any day…
