that guy is going to be so rich

^^^^ agreed, he will be the pussy master.

For welding, where a concentration of energy is required, this would be perfect.

What he has done is make allotropic water (cue mad scientist laugh).

The article makes no mention about the amount of electricity required to 'crack' the water in the first place, nor how long it takes.

Always a sceptic.

However, if it really is more stable than H2 (and easier to store and use), it could really be what the article says. Hook it up to hydro / geothermal to drive the cracking process.... it could be cool.

** I still vote ethanol

No actually he wont get rich in about a month or so im sure some oil company hired thug will arrange for him to go on a looooooong holiday.

i heard something was done like this years ago...

the guy got murdered and his factory burnt down..

[LBR33]

I knew that happend to a guy in brisbane a few years ago, he designed a very new concept in regards to engines, he claimed people were always stalking and following him after about 2 years the guy went loopy then vanished

[Primordial]

Ahh... but can it be turbocharged? THAT is the question!

[someonestolecc]

lol lbfalcon. Sounds like CIA perfected using mind altering drugs for mind control

Those crazy spooks.. ... hold on there's someone at the door.

There are plans for similar systems to this all over the net to run a car on water... the technology is available and the process is rock-solid and any car can be run on it. (yes turbo too) The two main problems, (other than OPEC hunting you down and killing you and everyone you ever met) Are that burning hydrogen + oxygen turns it back into water... which makes conventional engines and exhausts rust. (hence most of these systems run 15% petrol to avoid the problem) The other issue is nobody is actually manufacturing a "kit" as such to convert your car to H2 power. Anyone that has done it has done so completely at their own expense. (a relatively expensive capital outlay, although being able to run you car for FREE forEVER I think it would pay for itself)

Free energy is one of my passions by the way... I've been waiting for someone to kick off a thread like this...

A mate and I have a project suzuki swift running on 85% ethanol 15% pump unleaded... or 95% with avgas (shhhh don't tell anyone) And our next crazy scheme is a all-alloy rover V8 running a water fuelled hydrogen-on-demand system.

Hydrogen is the future... think about it... free fuel. FREE. Can you imagine whats going to happen when Big Oil and governments can no longer keep these new technologies suppressed? for one, my constant anguish over being an environmentalist and a car enthusiast will be allieviated....

<end rant>

I can talk for days about this if anyones genuinely interested...
