Advanced Fuel Saving Devices
The hydrogen fuel cell we use today is our 5th generation cell and an important innovation in HHO technology. Our design, like most uses electricity from your vehicle battery, to split water (H2O) into its component gases, Hydrogen and Oxygen. Typically, this occurs in a 2:1 atomic ratio of 2 H2 + O2 which is the same proportion as water. That is where much of what our cell has in common with the rest of the cells on the market today ends.
We constantly are working to improve HHO cell efficiency. We learned a long time ago that it is easy to make HHO gas, and that It is difficult to make HHO gas in sufficient quantities to have a positive effect on fuel economy and not overtax the vehicle electrical system. Our new cell will produce Hydrogen 2.3 times faster than generation 4, using the same amount of power. Our goal is to make that same improvement in our 6th generation cell.
We strive to provide our customers with information that is true, relevant, and current. Much of the information that is shared and used by HHO companies is information that is not correct, incomplete, or taken out of context. This bad information is simply passed around the Internet from one blog to another and after time is taken as fact. We promise you that information provided by is carefully researched and verified as true.
The fact that HHO gas can have a dramatic effect on fuel economy is no longer in dispute in the scientific community. Anyone who still has reservations about the science simply has not done their homework and should read the technical papers we have links to here on this site. In March of this year the first PHD thesis based on HHO technology was accepted by the scientific community and published. NASA, SAE, the DOT, and most vehicle manufactures all now acknowledge the benefits of HHO gas as a fuel adaptive. Claims of increased fuel economy, cleaner emissions, longer engine life, and more torque are no longer disputed. The truth is there for all to read, study, and test for themselves.
The hydrocarbon fuel you put in the tank is not the same hydrocarbon fuel molecule that comes out of the ground. Gasoline, and Diesel fuels are blended and have additive packages that help them burn cleaner, and improve the anti knock quality of the base refined fuels.
Gasoline is no one single chemical but a mixture of chemicals that will vary greatly from country to country. Gasoline contains a large variety of organic compounds including:
Hydrocarbons with between 5 and 12 carbon atoms
Benzene (C6H6)
Toluene (C7H8)
Naphthalene (C10H8)
And often much more…
Therefore it would be impossible to cite a single molecular formula for gasoline; you would have better luck focusing on the more purified fuels such as butane or propane. Gasoline often looks like one of these examples.
Gasoline itself is not a pure fuel, but a blend that most closely resembles the properties of isooctane.
Isooctane, as the name suggests is a chain of eight carbon atoms each carrying a pair of hydrogen atoms, and one more hydrogen atom to cap each end of the chain. (C8H18) This makes for a relatively long molecule with plenty of exposed single bonds. It is the breaking of these bonds and reforming of new ones during combustion that generates the heat energy driving the power stroke in any internal combustion engine. Isooctane has three of the end clusters of this chain moved toward the center making it a bit more stable than simple gasoline and a molecule requiring more energy to break.
Fuels with higher octane numbers have a stronger concentration of these more robust molecules versus the more easily broken longer molecular chains found in low octane fuels. Higher octane fuels require more energy to burn or to break the bonds, and for that reason have more resistance to detonation or engine knock.
This is where HHO comes into play. HHO fuel additive penetrates these molecules giving the fuel an even higher octane rating and when burned will release even more energy. An interesting side note is that the energy required to break these bonds comes in the form of heat during combustion. Heat transfer from one molecule to the next requires a small amount of time. Even though this is a very small amount of time, more total heat transfer means it takes more time for that heat transfer to happen.
Put another way adding more heat to the molecules in order to separate their ions takes time. This means a slightly slower burn rate for higher octane fuels such as Hydrogen with an octane rating of 130, compared to diesel at 25 and gasoline at 87 octane. This becomes very important when we look at spark advance timing.
You will see claims that HHO burns thousands of times faster than gasoline. If it takes more time to heat the molecular bonds in hho to higher temperatures to break them, then is it a true statement that HHO burns faster than gasoline?
More information is available on the Society of Automotive Engineers web site where you will find numerous scientific papers and independent studies done on Hydrogen as a fuel additive. Those papers go into detail about cylinder temperature, flame speed, fuel ignition temperatures, energy output etc. You will see that all of those numbers will change depending on the type of Hydrogen your system produces, the quality of the HHO gas your system produces, the condition of your engine, and how you manage the computer controls on your engine.
In other words, in most cases the data you read and so called facts stated about a HHO system given by a manufacture on a web site will only be true under certain conditions, or not at all.
These are just a few examples of information you will find there. Some of this information is over 40 years old and much is new, but all is relevant a today.

For detailed instruction on how to tune a engine a good book is found at www.cartechbooks.com. The title of the book is ENGINE MANAGEMENT FOR ADVANCED TUNING, Author is Greg Banish. If you intend to go beyond the normal 20 to 30% gain in MPG from a good HHO kit you will need to study this book and learn how to modify sensor output for leaner mixtures to be ordered by the vehicle ECM. Major gains are only possible when all the engine management controls agree with each other, O2 sensors, MAP sensor, MAS sensor, Temperature sensors, etc. In most cases you can not just put a DEFIE on one sensor and achieve higher than a 30% improvement in MPG. With practice it becomes easy to make the necessary modifications.
It is very easy to make HHO gas, it is very difficult to make it work to save fuel and improve engine performance. It took us 3 years to make a system that gave consistent results, then another 2 years to make a system that is safe to use and does not harm you or the environment by producing hazadrous waste and by products that cause cancer.
With so many designs, configurations, and claims of being the best, how can you make the distinction between a bad unit, a good unit and a great unit? Everyone claims that their system is the best ever made. Before you decide what to purchase for your business take the time necessary to investigate the company, and it’s products. In our opinion for every 100 kits on the market today, no more than 5% of them will meet the customers expectations.
We can help you decide what to buy, and how to use it. We are here to help improve the industry not just make sales and move on. If you find a better product than we supply, we will tell you it is better unit and why.
