ok talked to my dad a bit about it. He has not seen the site yet but has a few concerns.
1. There cost seems way low. The big 3 have alot of money in research here and my dad says that the materials needed to produce enough Hydrogen are very expensive. He stated that they have came along way since they began, but it still is to expensive for any of the big 3 to mass produce it on any level.

2. The life of the materials they have used. If they are using low budget ways of producing it, excatly how long will it really last.

3.. My dad said that the big 3 currently are running numorous busses in California powered by Hydrogen. They are used for mass transit. He does not question the technology. It is already there. I will show him the sight tomorrow and he will give back more feedback. He was also concerned with a "portable" unit. He said most of the units they are using are substantial in size. They have to be to produce enough hydrogen for fuel consumption.

I already called no answer, I did talk to a distributer in mi that had like 30 peple all lined up and was just waiting for more kits. I couldn't gather enough info from him pertaining to the diesels to buy one from him. So I called the main company and just a recording that everybody was on the phone and left a message. So as soon as a i can get some more info for all us I will. If I could even get 5mpg better I think it is worth it. I'm sure it provides better power too. Just need more dam& info.

Well, it says 400 to 500 miles, it is not a full fuel source like you may be thinking. It is a mist that is injected in the air stream. But He!! what do I know. When your dad checks it out let us know

It's not really a mist either... it's a gas that's made when you apply electrical current to a certain metal in electrolyte water... I don't mean to pick out little details though.

Have you guys gone to the website??? OMG they are using CPU cooling fans to circulate are around that thing, those I know for sure are not meant to be outside let alone under the hood of a diesel truck. So if they do work, it might work for like a day and then its going to go to hell because of the cheap @$$ parts they used. Might not be a bad stepping stone though. Buy the kit see how it functions, and replace junk parts with something that has a chance to last a little while.

AS for the big 3, they are running hydrogen powered buses in California as we speak for public transportation. You can make a hydrogen system that will cost you under $200.00. Granted, it may not produce a large amount of fuel in the beginning. You may have to tweak it to perform at a better rate of output. Any savings of fuel costs in the long run is better than no fuel savings...

A buddy of mine is a Chemist and he is going to do a little more research on this for me. I still haven't been able to get ahold of anybody for more info or testimonials on our light duty Diesels.

19 amps is quite a bit. I wonder how that's gonna affect alternator life? The more I watch those videos about it though the more intrigued I am... lol I bet that thing wouldn't be hard to duplicate at all on our own. The hardest part would be figuring out what metals they use inside the reactor as the catalyst. And getting the reactor itself to seal up airtight.
