Hydrogen Car Kits – What You Should Pay Attention To

Troubled times require desperate measures. While the usage of the brown gas HHO (split water) as a water additive for gasoline does not exactly fit this category, the incredible popularity that these hydrogen car kits have achieved lately is a proof of how desperately people want to change their lifestyle.

The problem with this hydrogen additive business is the fact that not all the players on the market are… let’s say… of top notch quality.

It pays a lot to analyze such offers, but it pays even more to know what you should be looking for:

Here are 5 tips when considering buying such a system:

1) You must first do no harm. This is a critical part. There are hydrogen car kits out there which when are employed can damage your car. Ideally a hydrogen car kit should not require messing up with your car’s engine or your car’s injection system.

2) Remember that hydrogen is dangerous. This is another critical part. Search for hydrogen car kits that store as little hydrogen gas as possible. Ideally the system should only generate hydrogen when needed.

3) Efficiency is the key. While most hydrogen car kits have improvements versus the early models, some are simply better than the others. Watch the efficiency figure. See how much such a system can increase the mileage on the average car.

4) Don’t buy into the hype. Look for figures. Salesmen are just that… salesmen. They can try to spin the facts, but they can’t hype the figures. Be on the lookout for technical specs and the minimum guaranteed results. These are the figures that matter, because these will most likely reflect the real quality of the product. If you somehow manage to obtain even better figures, then hey, you’ll have a pleasant surprise.

5) Look at the cost of the components and the cost of the hydrogen car kit guide. This is actually the last item you should pay attention to, but if you have 2 similar offers, it makes sense to go for the cheaper one.

It looks fairly complicated, but once you begin seeing the rationale behind this advice, you’ll see that it makes sense. One of the options, which I found and which passes all five tests from above is found here

Hydrogen Car Conversion Kits


Hydrogen car conversion kits are fast becoming must have accessories for cars nowadays. If you are the type who wants to save all those precious dollars that you will otherwise spend on gas money, then it is time that you go in for one of these kits. These conversion kits produce HHO, more commonly known as Brown Gas. With fuel prices skyrocketing, there has been a spurt in the number of vehicle owners opting for this technology.

Contrary to popular perception, the technology has been available for over a hundred years now. It is only because of the recent rise in oil prices that the talk around HHO has again gained momentum. The technology is proven with even skeptics now admitting to hydrogen kits working wonders to increase gas mileage. There has also been a lot of research going on with many new recent developments adding teeth to the already useful technology. Dry cell is one such addition that enables hydrogen car conversion kits to further increase mileage of cars.

Hydrogen car conversion kits not only help you save money but also help you by making your car’s engine become cleaner and run smoother, than ever before. The working mechanism of the conversion kits is such that it prevents carbon build up while also cleaning the existing carbon deposits at the same time.

Perhaps the best thing about hydrogen car conversion kits is the ease with which they can be built. All that you need to do is to invest some time and put in a bit of effort and your conversion kit will be virtually ready in next to no time. You can find most of the parts and components that you will need for the process at neighborhood hardware store. Building one can also be a great way to spend the weekend for the entire family too.

Hydrogen Car Kits: Pre-built VS Do-It-Yourself

If you are considering water powering your car by installing one of those hydrogen generator gas saving devices, you will be facing two available options: Buying a pre-made hho gas generator system or making one yourself using inexpensive items you can buy at most home improvement centers.

The truth is, while buying a pre-made hydrogen fuel cell generator system may seem like an attractive choice at first, there is a hidden downside that you can completely avoid by using a quality do-it-yourself water hybrid conversion system.

Besides the fact that it’s more expensive, the main problem is the quality and longevity of pre-made hho devices. The reason for this is that this whole water hybrid conversion craze is moderately new. It’s also a highly unregulated industry created by do-it-yourselfers. When purchasing one of these pre-built hho devices, you don’t really know what to expect long term.

Sure some work well for a while, but what happens in 2 months from now when parts start to come loose and corrode. If you don’t build the unit yourself, you can’t control the level of quality which is why most of these pre-assembled ready-to-install kits (usually slapped together in a couple of hours in someone’s living room) don’t last very long at all.

Think about it. In such a new industry, why would the makers of these hho gas conversion kits spend the extra money and time to make sure your unit lasts past 3 months. The reality is, it’s an unregulated market and they really don’t have to.

This is why I believe it is a much better option to just stick to a high quality, proven do-it-yourself water for fuel system. One that lets you choose what level of quality you put into your hho device, while saving you money on the front end and long term.

However, if you still insist on taking your chances with pre-assembled ready-to-install hydrogen fuel cell generators, make sure you’re getting a quality unit by asking the following important questions first!

1: How Many Stainless Steel Plates Does The Unit Use In It’s Plate Stack?

Quality hydrogen generator kits (with high output and great efficiency) use 16 plates in the plate stack which must be sanded down with 36 grit sandpaper first. Settling for anything less is like settling for saving 20% gas rather than 50%. It’s your choice. (Also insure plate grade is 308, 316 or higher.)

2: Are The Electrical Connectors And Wires In The Electrolyzer Properly Insulated With Heavy Duty Shrink Tubing?

Some of these pre-made gas conversion kits only wrap the electrical collections (emerged in water) in electrical tape or liquid tape. To prevent the deterioration of these connections and have a long lasting unit both insulating methods must be used along with a final wrap with shrink tubing. Hydrogen fuel cell units that don’t take this vital step tend to work fine for a while but short out after a few months.

3: Does The Unit Shut Off Automatically When You Turn The Engine Off?

This is a must-have safety requirement of any good hydrogen fuel generator. Ask the maker of the unit if it stops producing HHO gas automatically when you turn your engine off. All good hydrogen car conversion kits should include this feature and not just use a toggle switch to turn the unit on and off manually which can come with the risk of causing an explosion.

4: Has The Unit Been Properly Sealed And Will It Stay That Way?

If the vital parts of these hydrogen fuel generators are not sealed (and resealed) properly, they will leak. As a result your vehicle loses power, you waist more gas and it can eventually damage your engine. Often the creators of pre-made hho gas devices can skimp on the automotive goop “so to speak” or not take all the necessary secondary “sealing” precautions needed to insure the unit stays sealed even under extreme conditions and well into the future.

As you can see, there is a good reason why the automotive hydrogen generator market is a do-it-yourself industry at this time in history. It’s because, until these types of gas conversion kits are embraced by mainstream manufacturing, YOU must control the level of quality put into one of these things yourself (in order to be safest and in order to have a long lasting unit.) If you don’t, you could be throwing away your money and risking harming your vehicle, yourself and your passengers.

The good news is, you can easily built a long lasting hho unit and water power your car properly! Just make sure to follow the advice given above when considering any pre-built or diy system and you’ll do ok.
