Hydrogen Generator Plans

Introduction

Hydrogen injection is a popular do-it-yourself project.  Performance enhancements, pollution cleanup and more importantly the increase in mileage makes hydrogen injection one of the best things you can do to to achieve your goals.  Just like propane injection, the added gasses increase the combustibility of the fuel load offering a more complete burn of the fuel load.  With the increase in combustion effeciency comes better performance (more power) and less emissions.  Since you are getting more power from the same amount of fuel your mile per gallon increases as well.  While propane is bottled and needs to be purchased and refilled, on-board hydrogen generators give you the ability to turn distilled water into HHO gas by way of electrolysis.  The Brown's Gas is virtually no-cost after your hardware is installed giving you a long-term solution at a very low cost.  After factoring in your average fuel savings, you can actually realize a return on your investment.

Is this right for me?

Well, my first determining factor would be to know if you change your own oil and/or flat tires on your vehicles.  If the water pump goes out, do you send it to the shop or do you grab your own set of tools.  Building and installing your own hydrogen injection system is somewhat a labor of love.  Another question is the maintenance of the system.  Do you want to pop your hood everytime you fill up with gas so that you can top off your water reservoir.  You should strongly consider these questions before spending time on a system or project that may not be right for you.  If you want less work with similar results, try out an Edge programmer to increase power and fuel economy for about the same price as you would pay to develop your onw hydrogen injection system.

Does this really work?

Yes and no.  Every installation will react differently and every person will manage their installation differently.  In addition, everyone's goals and expectations are different so while one person might be excited to see 8% increase in fuel economy, another person may not think that is enough to justify their efforts.  In addition, one person may be great at troubleshooting their installation and can turn it around while another person may not grasp the concepts completely and feel that the installation was a waste of time.  However, in every installation I have been a part of, we have received between 10 to 30% increase in fuel economy on the vehicles we have installed on.  Read the forums and do your research as the majority of vehicles react well but I have heard of some that don't (like newer model semi trucks).  I hate to double-talk on this one but there are so many variables.  My experience says, "Yes!  This really works"

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.

Equipment proven to work.

There are better things that I could do with my time than to troubleshoot equipment over the phone to a remote installation.  The equipment simply has to work each and every time.  In the four years that I have been building and installing systems, it is important for me to know that my systems go out - and stay trouble-free.

Below:  Our hydrogen generator reliably produces 2, 4 or 6 LPM and does not overheat due to the multi-plate design  Our pwm controller is designed for heavy-duty (and continuous) use.  Most controllers are designed as motor controllers for short term use.  Xado Gel repairs and restores the geometry of the metal-to-metal contacts within your engine.  The ceramic coating does not allow hydrogen to react with steel components so any concern of hydrogen embrittlement is alleviated.  In addition, Xado is an energy-savings device and helps attain you miles per gallon goals.

Building a hydrogen generator. 

Many people want to build their own system from scratch.  The challenge of design your own system can be rewarding.  Below are the plans for the Tero cell which is an easy set of plans to follow.  Other plans found on the internet include:

• Tero Cell
• Joe Cell
• Smackbooster
• Aluminum Generator
  

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.

Sizing the correct amount of gas

Unfortunetly, everyone has their own theory about this topic.  How much hho gas should go into your engine is directly proportional to the size of your engine to account for the varying amount of oxygen drawn in by the air intake.  We have always preached the following formula:  engine liters X 0.50 = # of LPM.  So a 4.0 Liter engine would require 2 Liters Per Minute of HHO gas.  Some people have tried to tie in their rpm to the equation which makes sense but that varies greatly and the hydrogen generator does not have a fast enough response time to accomodate such a scheme.  If you account for high rev ranges in your equation and make your production constant to accomodate that then you should be fine at all rev ranges including idle.

Installing equipment on the vehicle

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.

Tracking performance

For undeniable proof about the performance of your engine, some dyno time can be exciting to see the power curve improvements.  For those who cannot afford the shop time, you will have to rely on miles per gallon improvements.  It amazes me that many people don't know how to properly track change in mpg.  Note:  Your dashboard mpg readout is never accurate enough for this.  Fill up your gas tank completely.  Reset your trip odometer.  Burn through a tank of gas before your system is installed.  Fill up your gas tank completely.  Read the number of gallons dispensed into your tank.  Read the trip odometer.  MPG is Miles Per Gallon or Miles / Gallon on a calculator.  Repeat after the system is installed.  Compare pre-mpg to post-mpg.  This is your change.  Pre = 10mpg post = 12mpg = 2 mpg improvement or 20% improvement.

Conclusion

Building your own system can be exciting.  For those who are willing to install a system themselves but don't want to build the complicated system components, we can offer a heavy-duty hydrogen generator, heavy-duty pwm controller and a ceramic engine treatment for your installation.  If hydrogen injection seems to be too involved, try a plug-and-play performance chip.
