Question:

I've recently seen hydrogen hybrid kits on the market, do these actually work? Would appreciate feedback.?

I've recently seen these on a website that are supposed to convert your car to run on water I believe, do they actually work or is it just a scam? I would be interested to find out as gas is supposed to only keep going up.

Thanks in advance.

  1. It is a scam.. I am 77 and heard this dream all my life and never saw one work...


  2. No they do not. Hydrogen fuel is a valid technology--but you don't produce useful power with a "kit"   In the unlikely any of these so-called kits actually produced any hydrogen (which they won't in most cases--their claims ignore some basic physics and chemistry)--it would be EXTREMELY dangerous. Hydrogen can be handled safely--but it is one of the most powerful explosive components on earth when combined with oxygen.

  3. what's in the kit?

    or are we supposed to guess what you're thinking?

    typically, it's a scam.

    typically it's an advertisement for something to attach to your car to make hydrogen that will make your gas mileage phenomenally better.

    it doesn't work.

    you can certainly send them your $50, or $99, or more, but the only result is that you'll be out your money and time.

  4. Most probabily a scam. Up to this day, there is no technology which uses 'water' as fuel. Yes, there are street legal cars which use fuel-cells, which uses hydrogen (from a tank) and oxygen (from the air), to generate electricity to power an electric motor. When hydrogen and oxygen react, they release energy and water, instead of smoke. But hydrogen is highly inflameable, they would have to use similar procedures to that of loading hydrogen on a space shuttle, including keeping the nearest human almost half a mile away. They might be practical one day, I don't think will be in the next two decades. Hybrids, on the other hand, are completely feasible. Hybrids use two or more power source, either in alternation, or in combination, according to desired results. The most common ones use an internal combustion engine and an electric motor, powered by conventional chemical batteries, which can be recharged through an odinary wall socket, or by the engine it self. Hybrids can switch between power sources smoothly. Electric hybrid conversion kits maybe available, but a hydrogen one, must be a scam.

  5. Anything that says 'run on water' or 'Brown's gas' or 'HHO' is just a scam.  See the link below.

  6. they do work. it's based on ultra-lean burn combustion engines. look it up.
