I constructed an electrolyzer with a stainless steel fire extinguisher + 12 stainless steel rods. Placed it on my little Ford pickup with a 2.0 L engine. After testing and measuring I came up with the 53% increase in mileage. Used baking soda for the mix. The downfall was when I came home one night I was so tired after a long day at work that I forgot to shut the power off to it and blew the fire extinguishers seams to bits. I considered it a success.

Nice work, I would suggest using a pressure regulator valve if you were to redo the experiment so that if the hydrogen builds up to much within the fire extinguisher, it would be vented, preventing the extinguisher from going pop

pulse width modulation (PWM) circuitry, tune your cell to resonant frequency-gas is produced via capacitative discharge versus brute DC electrolysis. This type of gas is mono atomic H and O at highest entropy state (1L H2O/1800L gas). cell input is tuned to standing square wave modulation at high kilo-cycle frequencies. you will find harmonic 'sweet spots' where gas production is optimal at a fraction of the input wattage...so I have heard

Dear Rob, this devise is superb in conclusion with photo voltaic. If you run PV and not consuming all electric power you can produse hydrogen with this generator and store it for later purposes. (Called Power to gas, but many said it's not eficient enough - 30% effectivity only ...) For example feed a petrol motor with hydrogen you get electric power and hot water as well. Or just use the gas for heating or cooking. Great system! Thanks for the upload!

You cannot store Brown's gas. The oxidizer and the Hydrogen are never separate so the combustion mixture is always stoichiometric. That's why Brown's gas POPs really loudly, and Hydrogen merely whooshes. It would be suicidal to store brown's gas under any kind of pressure exceeding a balloon.

Robert, a future video idea might be to put a cheap submersible pump in the electrolyzer. Hydrogen bubbles cling to the electrodes acting as an insulator reducing efficiency, vibrating the plates can free hydrogen and a pumped solution flowing over the plates from the bottom up could increase efficiency too. Eliminate the bubbles to increase efficiency and yield. Is there a best sonic or ultrasonic frequency for breaking the hydrogen bubbles free of the surface? How do you separate out the oxygen from the gas stream? A cheap plastic or glass tube open at both ends would work to do this, silicone it to the inside spacers and a rubber seal at the top to the lid and put the O2 collection tube lower in the gas column.

The Stainless Lathe is a great idea, cheap and easy to get hold of at most good builders merchants. To run a car you would just need to separate off the Hydrogen and store it, apparently, tanks with Lithium 6 Deuteride is best to absorb it, however getting this fairly harmless material can be a pain because it is used in nuclear bombs, however I did once hear of Carbon being made from Coconut shells and being used to absorb Methane in Tanks to run cars, maybe some sort of a carbon matrix would also work for Hydrogen to increase the storage capacity of tanks.

Hello! I'm wondering if another route to go would be to use a stainless steel pressure cooker. You can use the cooker itself as one electrode. You can have the other electrode wired through the hole that will be created when you unscrew and remove the pressure gauge. Then you can connect a hose to the pressure release port where the 15 psi weight would usually sit.

very cool rob. The biggest complaint I've seen on urea electrolysis is the foaming that occurs. I don't think 60 watts is a rate that can produce on demand gas production for jeweler torches (most active users of home built electrolysis) So it's probably way less of an issue. The other issue at low volume will be storing it safely. Flashback arrestor and bubbler to some sort of bladder?

That's a great question, and I wondered about the net energy claim. He did mention the urea breaking down into a nitrogen-hydrogen mix. I'm guessing the urea breaks down in a way that needs to be replenished. The extra energy is stored in the urea somehow, and getting released upon electrolyzing. It was a bit of a distraction from the HHO cell. You can also use washing soda (Sodium Carbonate) as the electrolyte, to lower the cell voltage. It works even better, in my opinion.

My 2016 Dodge truck has the EcoDiesel, and I have to use DEFfluid (Urea). I'm thinking I could somehow convert the DEF system into a hydrogen generator. Would I just pump the hydrogen into the air intake?

Great video! I didn't know this technology. Is urea electrolysis efficient only in alkaline electrolyte?

I found on the net an easy way to store and pressurize the gas is to have two cylinders one fitting into the other fill the bottom one with water and have the gas inlet come from the top outside and go to the bottom center to fill the second cylinder putting weights on the second cylinder top controls the pressure.

Quick question although I'm hoping you see this when you say it's using urea, I know that's that's the basic compound for DEF fluid is that what you are starting with?

You should try using copper electrodes coated with your graphene ink, copper would normally deteriorate in an electrolytic cell like this but your waterproof ink might have quite interesting results

the carbon would oxidize to graphene oxide, lose conductivity and stop working.

@@kreynolds1123 have you tried this? Or is that just a hypothesis? I'd think graphene would take higher temperatures or voltages to oxidize, and urea electrolysis doesn't produce oxygen it produces carbon dioxide and nitrogen aside from the hydrogen. But Idk cause I don't have any graphene to experiment with

If you want to separate the hydrogen and oxygen, a good arrangement is some PVC pipes constructed in the basic shape of a "UU" with three uprights (If you imagine the center as one pipe). The Pipe on one side is the Cathode, the Pipe on the Other end is the Anode and the pipe in the center is for refilling. You can cap either end and store or vent as desired. Point of Safety for everyone. I have heard that stainless steel releases Chromates in this process and is not something you want laying around and you shouldn't just pour it down the sink.

Do the chromates get released in the gas as well

​@@incognitoalias2808 Stainless steel consists of part chromium. Chromium oxidizes to chromium oxides during electrolysis. One of those oxides is chromium oxide VI ( hexavalent ). HIGHLY CANCEROUS. In civilized countries, you can't by law ( and shouldn't regardless ) just dispose of that "rust". There is special protocol for disposing it(!). Don't breathe it in. Don't dump it outside/down the drain. Don't touch it with bare hands. Don't use stainless steel as a waste electrode. USE GRAPHITE RODS/PLATES. Best conductivity, best porousness, cheapest, most efficient. Breaks down into graphite powder/graphene.

Rob its a good idea to condition the stainless by running the device for an extended period ,then replacing the electrolyte , repeat a few times , you get a brown sludge as the ss 'rusts' , I got rather a high chrome reading from doing this ,so use gloves and dispose of sludge safely ,, can get 2 liters a minute for 10 amps 13.8 volts dc using potasium H , 7 plate series cell , plates about 200 cm square , stuff goes bang louder than a shot gun .Stan Meyers ran VW buggy with on board generated HHO , then got poisoned ! ,. suspect he figured something else out though,to do with nitrogen . His cells were SS tubes inside tubes ,cut to have same resonant frequency,completely immersed in water , probably set up to be a capacitor in an LC resonating circuit .

Would copper pipe make a better conductor. If so, you could microbore copper pipe slotted into 1 1/2" plastic waste pipe, then put microbore around the outside. Would that work?
