How To Build A Hydrogen Generator




Sand Sports Was Skeptical Too! Until They Tried it... and received over 35% increase in MPG.
In our opinion, there is no better test than a stranger procuring your hydrogen generator, installing it, testing it for themselves and reporting on amazing miles per gallon achievements... and then writing about it in a National magazine! They tested on a 2003 GMC 3500 4X4 Dually Crew Cab with an automatic transmission on highway without a trailer, on highway with a trailer and on steep mountainous roads without a trailer.


With the promise of a hydrogen economy continually pushed out by infrastructure debates and funding debacles, it is no wonder that many people are searching for the next best alternative fuel. By now you may have heard of someone retrofitting their car or truck with a hydrogen generator to save money on fuel - that's why you are here.  Placing a hydrogen generator and related equipment into a vehicle's power system boosts the horsepower, reduces emissions and ultimately offers fuel savings. Many people have successfully replicated this approach by either building a hydrogen generator with plans they get from various websites or by buying a hydrogen generator kit and install it themselves or have their mechanic install it for them.  We hope this website helps you in your research and decision making process on whether to buy or build a hydrogen generator for your vehicle.

Hydrogen Generator Plans

Featured E-Book: Hydrogen Generator Plans
This generator is very easy to build using materials found on the shelf at your local hardware store. While this is not a robust or ruggedized solution for years of use on a heavy-duty diesel, the components can last quite a while in a commuter car or SUV. The plans are extrememly detailed with lots of pictures to walk you through your setup.

Hydrogen Generator - Plans, Forum & Blog 
There are many websites that promote their hydrogen generators for the automobiles.  A business associate recently asked our opinion on a certain company's lower than usual cost product.  We told him to ask the company the following question, "Are you using a single cell hydrogen generator or a multi cell because we heard a single cell hydrogen generator has many heat problems."  The sales person told him that they were in fact selling a single cell hydrogen generator and that they were in fact having heat problems and their solution was to later send out a radiator for the hydrogen generator.  Single cell hydrogen generators do not give enough electrical path so all of the amps turn into heat which causes a runaway reaction.  The more heat, the more amps drawn down which more amps are turned into more heat which draw down more amps, etc.  Learn more about hydrogen generators for your automobile.

Homemade Hydrogen Generator
Homemade hydrogen gas generators can be as simple as tying stainless steel plates together and electrifying them and as advanaced as a multi-cell stainless steel hydroxy generator that can produce a liter or two of gas per minute.  There are many options available on the internet.  The biggest question that needs to be answered is what will you be using the hydrogen generator for and how much gas is needed?  One of the best documents Umpua Energy, Inc. has seen on the internet is the Tero cell - and we have actually built one.  It is a fun project and the cell produces nearly two liters per minute of hydroxy gas.  Note: To avoid a run away reaction, it is recommended that you control the amperage to the hydrogen generator by using a PWM Controller.

Cornish Hydrogen Generator
The Cornish Hydrogen Generator is an interesting proposition, but not energy effecient from a cradle to grave standpoint.  The premise is that scrap aluminum is combined with sodium hydroxide and water which actually causes a chemical reaction strong enough to break apart the water into hydroxy gas.  Alumina Oxide remains which could be smelted and turned back into aluminum.  At face value it looks like a great recycling scheme but after measuring the amount of electricity it take to get the alumina back into aluminum.  In addition, the process is very dangerous as the chemical reaction is difficult to control.  The more heat the more reactive which emits more heat and so on.  While the Cornish Hydrogen Generator is a fun (but dangerous) experiment, we do not see any commercial viability for the technology.  Note:  If your kids start buying a lot of Red Devil Lye, be advised that they could do serious damage and no one likes a homeland security raid on a sunny afternoon.

Tero Cell Hydrogen Generator Plans
This set of plans will show you how to build a plate design series-cell electrolyzer.  The hydrogen generator produces about 2 liters per minute at about 22 amps at 12 volts.  An increase in voltage such as your vehicles alternator will increase the output of gas as the voltage is raised to almost 14v.

Hydrogen Generator Safety

Xado Prevents and Repairs Hydrogen Embrittlement With Engine Treatment
Hydrogen embrittlement occurs when hydrogen interacts with steel under heat and pressure. Hydrogen atoms are smaller than the molecular structure of steel so hydrogen is forced into the steel and methane pockets are created which expand and contract which cause weak points in the steel and it can eventually break down. Many hydrogen generator companies do not address this issues. We use Xado to protect and repair the engine from the damaging effects of hydrogen embrittlement.

PWM Controller Prevents Thermal Creep and Blown Fuses
PWM Controllers on the market today melt down after a short time of use because they are rated incorrectly for CONTINUOUS USE. We keep the heat generating parts away from the main circuit board. Secondly, we disperse the heat with a simple yet proven method to keep the mosfets cool. Finally, we ventilate the pwm controller so that any radiant heat is evacuated away from the mosfets as soon as possible. We will be releasing our pwm controller soon into the hands of beta testers, sign up now to be considered. More Info
