I'm not suggesting Over Unity like your argument here, what I'm saying is
this is a good SUPPLEMENTAL fuel.

Only if it was a supplemental fuel, not created by the cars alternator
as that is being driven by the engine burning fuel.
Make this miracle suplement outside of the car say using solar / wind
power - well maybe.
But these kit's to use the cars alternator output for their catalists
= 20Amps !
They are really taking the piss out of us don't you think ?

I have a SUPPLEMENTAL smack system running on a holden 202 and have an
average of 24% saving on fuel cost, so as far as I am concerned I am pissing
on the fuel company. You be the judge.

Your not an Smack agent are you ? (Good luck with your distribution).
Be interesting if it had a proper scientific report done on it the
wopping 24% claim.
Car compaines especially the USA ones will all be lining up for SMACK,
considering they are all in dodo over there with MPG requirements.
Heck with this logic GM's Bob lutz is of his nut as a $200.00 SMACK
kit fitted to each car will fix the problem!
Bob was quoting more like 6,000 dollars per car to eachieve.
GM still got 29B left after the 39B last years right down.
Maybe he should stop the E-flex / Volt project and buy SMACK out ! -
Now I'm getting sarcastic, apologies over that !
After all lets face it there were so MANY devices like this in the
past,
Brock polerizer, Cyclone Air attachments - all proven later to be a
w.nk.
So for now I'm still a skeptic :-)

Not an agent at all, just used the open source information on the net (it's
easy to find via your favourite search engine), there are others pushing
30-40% with some installations. I am using a Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) and
getting great results out of tap water. I agree there are heaps of shysters
out there trying to rip off your average Joe, but the backyard inventor is
more than capable of inventing and sharing new designs and concepts...... :)
Look what happened to Stan Myers.

Funny that, On the net I'm just getting all the opposite :->

Now that was a class act !

Well I'll leave your skepticism intact and maybe choose a better search
engine, keep paying the man if you like and good luck mate :)

Hey Philby,
PS
Stan Myers was a fraudster.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_fuel_cell
Excellent article me thinks, including the part about violating the
laws of thermodynamics.
That just about seals it.
Unfortunetly for all of us Stan was no Newton it looks like.
Be excellent if it was true.
As to car running on water injection NOx polution levels would be an
issue :-(

I agree running a engine on water via his water injection invention is way
out there, but a HHO generator as a supplement fuel for an ICE is definitely
a reality. Remember to stay on track about HHO as a supplement fuel source.

20 amps is what is takes to run my two spotlights and I don't suffer any
noticeable drop in fuel economy while doing so
So if I run a system that takes 20amps to run and it produces enough gas
to run as a supplement to the diesel I would normally use and I get even
a 5% increase in economy then I am in front am I not??
