Well, the energy required to dissociate water into hydrogen and oxygen is greater than the energy gained by oxidizing hydrogen.
I don't think she has a grasp of the nuances of the engine control computer (Though tha's a non-issue on a stock GMC coach).
If she had or hs a system which would conistently give improved mileage without sacrificing drivability, she could name her price, and would be rich beyond her wildest dreams.
Until I see a double blind test of this setup, it's roadapples.

On the "Technology" page[1], they say:

Quote:


It is argued the energy released in combustion is less than or equals the energy consumed in electrolysis, which means more energy is required to drive the electrolysis process than can be extracted from burning the resulting hydrogen-oxygen mixture. H2 Pure Power has changed the equation resulting in greater efficiency of hydrogen production.



If that's true, then they've created perpetual motion, at least for environments where water is available.

I call shenanigans.

Ever hopeful, however.

So then theoretically you could have a boat or submarine for that matter that runs on water. Seawater would just another add another level inefficiency if the salt would have to be removed via Reverse Osmosis first. Given the current technology, It wouldn't surprise me if we already had this on some super secret military vessels (now peeking through the blinds for a black SUV). LOL.

This woman is an experienced and uncaring conman.

1 cup of distilled water? unless she is doing fusion there is no way near enough energy in a cup to power anything anywhere, much less for 2000 miles.

I mean thats the evaporation rate in a sealed container basically...

What would it look like if one of these claims were true?

If someone had a breakthrough in separating hydrogen efficiently or a 2000 amp battery the size of a 12-pack, what would it actually look like?

There would be a press release and major news coverage. There would be peer reviewed technical article published.

Investors would line up and a product delivery dates would be announced.

I'm thinking a psychic with a crappy web site is NOT what it would look like.

Most of the energy breakthroughs have been incremental improvements on existing technology.

Well, I hate to argue with the lady, after all, she has died twice - Jesus only made it once  - so she's Special.  Hoiwever, IC engines can be made to run on hydrogen, the problem is storing and distributing it.  Probably a better motive system is electric, powered by a hydrogen fuel cell.

A long time ago I worked (eng co-op student) in the development lab for an industrial furnace mfr. One project we were working with was some safety systems for hydrogen atmosphere furnaces. After the hydrogen explosions we had developing this I would never have anything to do with any hydrogen as vehicle fuel. Later in the utility business I had casual contact with the generator rotor hydrogen cooling systems and safeguards and none of that changed my opinion of the dangers of hydrogen. It makes gasoline look like a minor safety problem. Also ask the nuclear engineers/operators at the Japan nuc plant about hydrogen explosions.

Some detail for the furnace development: We had the furnace set up in a small room built at the end of a very large industrial crane bay. The room ceiling was made of drop in ceiling tiles. We launched those ceiling tiles several times before we got the project working right. That ceiling tile operation was the planned safety valve for the project.
