Convert Car to HHO

Convert your car to HHO and say goodbye and cheerio to hyper-inflated gas prices. Any car or truck can be converted to HHO fuel systems. Typically convert car to HHO and efficiency is increased by around 50%. That equates to an approximate saving at the gas pump of 40%. The calculations are difficult to fathom but they are the factual percentages in real life.

To convert car to HHO takes about 3 hours. It involves no mechanical skill and costs under $200 in parts. These parts are easy to come by and procure. I know all this from experience. I have just completed my fourteenth truck to run on hydrogen producing electricity. I have also transformed eight cars for family and friends to run on water. All you need are decent instructions.

Remember, I am no mechanic. I now save over $300,000 each year on petroleum and diesel for my truck fleet. I have also had refunds to the tune of $217,000 from the IRS. I only started converting to hydrogen two years ago. I expect over the next 5 years to save myself well in excess of $2 million.

As far as my own, quite modest, family car is concerned I save around $800 a year. I even got a tax refund for that. It was $2,000. When I decided to convert car to HHO I had no idea of the cash savings. I had read about it but was not sure about the technology. Because it was obvious that there was absolutely no risk to the existing gas engine and because it was so cheap, I just decided to give it a go.

Anyone with a decent manual, and I do mean decent, can convert their car to HHO. A good guide will take you through the process step-by-step and give you lists of suppliers. The science may seem a little baffling at first. Let's have a look into it.

Each component must be right, but at the hub of the convert car to HHO system is the oxygen/hydrogen generator. This is a cell that splits H2O into hydrogen and oxygen which in turn produces electricity to power the vehicle. A water tank stores the water which is pumped to the generator or cell, call it what you will. A control unit linked to the generator electronically monitors the creation of hydrogen within the cell.

An in-dash indicator will allow you to oversee the system and how it is functioning. The quality of this component can vary but most that I have tried out are very satisfactory. Virtually all the parts involved in convert car to HHO are long lasting and durable. However, do not be tempted to take short cuts and buy inferior materials. It just does not pay in the long run.

Use quality CPVC pipes for your runs. It is not the most crucial factor and can be rectified but is definitely a pain if you do encounter any problems.

Everyone should be using electricity to run their vehicles. With the HHO kits available today there is simply no excuse not to convert car to HHO

10 Cheap and Easy Ways to Increase Your Gas Mileage

Almost every time that we turn on the radio or television, we hear that gas prices are rising. At the last report, the nationwide average was $3.93 for a gallon. How much does this translate for you in annual fuel costs?

If you are the typical driver who drives 15,000 miles a year, pays about $4 per gallon, and gets 25 miles per gallon, you are paying $2360 annually just to get to work and back. That is quite a bit of money.

We can't control the price of gas, but we can have some effect on how far we can stretch our mileage. Here are 10 tips that you can put into practice to keep more of your money in your pocket.

1. Check your tires - Make sure that you are using the narrowest tires that you can and that they are properly inflated. Sizing and adequate air pressure will decrease drag on the pavement to help your wheels roll with the least resistance.

2. Lighten your load - Check the trunk for coolers, lawn chairs, bags of clothes that never made it to the donation center or newspapers. This extra weight makes the car heavier resulting in more strain on the engine and more tire on the ground.

3. Use cruise control - A constant engine speed will level out the fuel that your car requires from moment to moment. This pacing will save you like you wouldn't believe.

4. Use synthetic oil - This will allow your car's engine to work more smoothly at higher temperatures. Again, the less that your car has to work, the farther that you will go on a tank.

5. Remove your ski and luggage racks - This will decrease the drag that your car creates as it moves through the air, lowers your weight overall, and gets more tire off the pavement.

6. Draft behind big trucks on the highway - Use their size to your advantage. With less wind resistance, you can move through the air much easier resulting in less drag, which works in your favor. I once took a 25 miles per gallon car up to 40 on a long trip doing this.

7. Use overdrive on the interstate - This will lower your car's rpm's to a more efficient level while still doing the same amount of work.

8. Avoid fad products that make ridiculous claims - There is no magic bullet to getting better mileage. If it sounds too good to be true, it is.

9. Pickup trucks go with the tailgate up - Studies show that the turbulence that is created behind the cab when the tailgate is down creates drag on the vehicle. I know this is contrary to what you think that you might know, but it's true.

10. Change your air filter - A car with a cleaner filter has a smoother running engine. Less strain means longer distances between pit stops.

Just when the end will come to the run up in the gas prices is unclear. If you are like many, you need your car to get to work everyday, get to the grocery store, get the kids to soccer, and to school. We can't change the price of the fuel, but we can change our habits. Altering behavior just a bit will produce a definite benefit at the pumps.

Write me a note about your triumphs. I love to hear stories about people taking charge and making a difference.
