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. 

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.

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.

Heavy-Duty PWM Controller
One of the weak links in the hydrogen injection marketplace has been in finding a reliable, stable and durable PWM Control Circuit.  We have tested many of the PWM Controllers on the market today and have been extremely disappointed in the lack of durability.  The circuits would overheat and the board would get so hot that the solder would melt and short out the entire board.

We are pleased to be the first to annouce the release of the OkW 12v 0-50a PWM Controller .  We have collaborated with the folks at OkW and they have built a heavy-duty controller to our specifications.  We have tested their equipment extensively and can honestly say that we've tried our best, but we just can't break it anymore.  And speaking of breaking, where else can you find a one year warranty on this kind of equipment.  If you can break it, OkW will fix your unit and ship to back to you.

The OkW system is unique for several reasons, but the most notable to us is that the heat sink and mosfets are completely seperate from the control board.  The exhaust fan keeps the heat away from the circuitry which allows the PWM Controller to run extremely cool.  For more information on the OkW 12v 0-50a PWM Controller , visit their website located at:  PWMController.com

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.

Hydrogen Generator Installation Guide
While this guide may not satisfy every installation, it is a great guide to use as a reference to help understand the best way to install your hydrogen generator.

Hydrogen Generator Forum
This is probably one of the best technical forums with a lot of helpful tips on how to build your hydrogen generator.

Hydrogen Generator Blog
This hydrogen generator blog was used by many researchers to show off the hydrogen generator that they built and installed on their cars and trucks.

Hydrogen Embrittlement

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.
