Question

Is it true that a vehicle can easily be converted into a water burning hybrid?

Answer 1

No

Answer 2

No.  Those run your car on water devices are all scams.

Answer 3

These do not work, they are a total scam. You will always consume more electricity electrolyzing the water than you can get back by combusting the gases. Not even close.

Plus this is an explosive mixture and dangerous.

This is not just my opinion, but hard scientific fact.

Just think, if you could generate electric power from nothing, every auto manufacturer would be knocking on your door. Even more, we could shut down every coal, oil, nuclear, wind, solar power plant and use this method. But, sad to say, you can never get something from nothing, so we will have to stick with our fossil fuels and hope nuclear/solar/wind power comes on line in time.

Answer 4

My neighbor bought into this and actually built one of these things for his car.  I have tried and tried to explain to him why it won't work.  He doesn't believe me, but I'll try one more time for you:

The idea is to separate water into oxygen and hydrogen.  Oxygen and hydrogen are, of course, explosive.  He separates the water into oxygen and hydrogen using electrical power from the car's battery.  He then pipes the oxygen and hydrogen to the car engine's air intake.

It sounds good until you realize that you can't get any more energy from the oxygen/hydrogen than you took from the battery to create it!

The battery gets charged from the car's alternator.  The alternator gets its power from the car's engine.  The car's engine gets its power from gasoline.  Do you see the problem here?  Believe it or not, my neighbor just can't understand how this is a circular system he has created.
