Does that run your car on water thing really work?

Question

I was wondering if anyone has got that "run your car on water" thing? has anyone gotten it and had it sucessfully work? If anyone has tried and had it not work, what went wrong or why is it bad?

Answer 1

If you are talking about spliting water into hydrogen and oxygen, then putting the hydrogen into a fuelcell car, than yes! Honda already has a fuel cell car in production. But dont try putting hydrogen in your gas or diesel car

Answer 2

It can't work.  Here's why (simply).  They are selling the idea of running your engine, to generate electricity, to make hydrogen, to run your engine.  

It's a perpetual motion machine.   If this thing worked, they wouldn't need $50 from you, that's for sure.  But of course, it can't work.  For every BTu of energy that goes into the cycle, only about a fourth of a BTU will come out.

Save your money.

Answer 3

Yes, that "run your car on water" thing does really work.  But it will not save you any money by using it.  It takes more energy to make the hydrogen than you get back.  But some clever scammers out there will give you a partial truth just to suck you in...

They tell you how their system takes water and generates HHO gas and uses that hydrogen in your engine as a form of fuel.  Sounds good.  Free energy from that hydrogen.  But...

You have to consider the costs, too. In order to make the HHO, your car battery has to power a "generator", that electrolyzes the stuff. And you have to use an electrolyte, that allows the process to take place. The cost of the electrolyzer and the energy from the battery are more costly than the benefit from the hydrogen gas they make. And you have to actually purchase the system, or at least the parts to build one of your own.

There are people out there who want SO BADLY to believe it works, that they will tell you all about the savings. But they will be just as careful not to tell you of the costs.

I am all for the hydrogen economy. But not for scams like this. I like hydrogen because it can be made from things like wind farms and waterfalls, where you can justify using 1000 Watts just to make 800, because the carbon footprint is small. That being said...

"Water for gas HHO" works, but it is not a money-saving breakthrough.

If you remember nothing else, remember just this:

Per liter, water has 0 W-hr of energy in it. Hydrogen has 3 W-hr @ STP. Conversely, gasoline has 9,700W-hr. Which one do you want for fuel??

Answer 4

It works good if you are driving down hill.

Answer 5

of course it works, but why put that car in production, there is still oil in the ground just waiting to be pumped, it's all checks and balances, why use american oil when you can use all the foriegn oil until it's gone and then sell it back to them at higher prices.

Answer 6

it's possible to run car on water fueled. some persons sell the info on the internet. fortunately i found someone share the info for free.

Answer 7

Yes converting your vehicle from gas to water does really work.  There is a system within the vehicle after installed that breaks down the molecules of water and the hydrogen which makes the conversion work.
