    Me and the wife have been doing some research on this, and most we have found sayes that it is in fact not a scam, but can be improved alot, there is no found evidence that it does not work. they also have ratings on the best kits to buy and that company comes in second, the first company is called "run your car on water" and if you check ebay, there is the kits cheaper than the fifty bucks.

    "It must be true, I read it on the internet"

    Listen to Pope, folks. Think about it. If it were as simple as a fruit jar and some hose, it would be a developed technology. There is no "forgotten patent", notice they didnt give the patent number. There is no miracle separation of water into its elements....it takes energy to do so. You will see an improvement in your mileage since installing snake oil products makes you constantly aware of your mileage so you drive more careful...which works.

    These scams have been selling for years and seem to pop up in quantity when oil prices spike.

    Tune up your car and lose 50 lbs at the gym...that will do a lot more for your mileage!

    "Listen to Pope, Folks." Love it, haha.
    The thing is, the hydrogen generator would help a bit if you set it up with a throttle switch, so it injected the gases on demand, such as climbing a hill, or passing. The power loss from the alternator would be small, over a long period, and the burst of power would benefit a smaller engine. But do you want to drive around with a quantity of highly explosive hydrogen/oxygen mixture somewhere on board? Not me, thanx.
    Totally different from a hydrogen cell, btw. A cell contains no oxygen, and won't go BANG!
