Well this is crazy. These guys actually have a working prototype of a truck powered by hydrogen from water and it only gets 16 Flags! UNBELIEVABLE!

I, for one, cannot wait for these units to become commercial, and it is only a matter of time before they do.
It's not a typical hoax where the hoaxers ask for money or try to sell you plans. I think the guys doing it might actually think all they need to do to get it to work is keep tweaking it, but of course that's not the case, they're not quite smart enough to understand why no amount of tweaking will fix it, but they have a clue from watching the ammeter.

anyways, there is my response for those of you aching to find out if this is a hoax or not

They aren't getting energy out of nothing, it is coming from the extracted hydrogen. Hydrogen is a very powerful energy source.
This isn't about free energy, its about efficiency. They are pulling 55 liters per minute with 55 amps, once again...they don't ever say it is free energy.

Where did you buy yours from and what powers your HHO reactor, elecricity? And if so where do you get the electricty? From the grid, from solar, partly from the alternator?

I was a bit of a skeptic myself, and I didn't buy any plans, I bought a complete unit, ready too install and run. The original design did not suit me at all, so I modified it, and got better production in the process.
The reason I asked autowrench about the source of electricity is, there are really no claims by the guys in the OP that they don't use electricity from the grid. They have a ginormous battery in the bed of the pickup, which can supply enough electricity to run the HHO generator for some time, maybe a few hours.

Do you have any proof of your claims. A picture would do for me.

So, in that case, have you converted your vehicle?
If not, why not?
If so, tell us about it!
where did you get that idea? A garden hose is rated at 300 psi:

the video is a hoax you need to be able to store the extracted hydrogen in a tank of some sort they were showing "60 psi" with no tanks capable of holding that kind of pressure.
1. The amount of HHO gas required is far, far greater than any of the commercially available or DIY electrolysis cells on the market can produce. Indeed, the amount of electricity required to create these gas volumes is once again beyond the ability of any conventional car's electrical system.
2. The particulate output of the engine being tested actually *increased* significantly, whereas the HHO proponents are claiming lower emissions. In fact, particulate emissions are now being cited as a major health risk and cause of premature death
