The first car that ran on water was in the 1862’s f you have been paying attention to all the talk about hydrogen cars and the promises from the car manufacturers, you have to be excited that the day is almost here where you can run an engine on water, or at least the hydrogen in water. This is truly the day to be living in, where cheap energy will finally be available to the masses. It should not be long before we all take our garden hose and fill up the fuel tank on our car, truck, or van with good old H2O. Here in the 21st century we finally have the technology to split the hydrogen and water atoms in plain water to produce a gas that is highly combustible. HHO gas is as combustible as natural gas. The day has finally arrived… RIGHT? I think we need to look at this in the light of history. Who was the first person to separate the atoms in a molecule of H2O? Now I am not talking about boiling water to produce steam. Steam is still H2O! I am talking about splitting water into, two parts pure hydrogen gas and one part pure oxygen. The new buzz word for the flammable gas that comes from water is “HHO.” HHO gas is also known as hydroxy, (which is short for hydrogen-oxide,) OxyHydrogen, Aquagen, Kleins Gas, knallgas, Browns Gas and a few more I am sure will be coined in the future. So, when was HHO gas first produced? You probably imagine a government funded laboratory with all types of equipment that is capable of breaking apart atoms at the molecular level. Well, I will quit beating around the bush and get to the real history. 1206 To get the whole picture, we need to go back to the very first engines. As far back as 1206 engineers / inventers had been developing the engine, but these early engines pushed cylinders with liquids, air and steam. This was the limit of the technology for almost exactly 600 years. Six centuries with no major change. 1800 Alessandro Volta was an Italian physicist. Through his experimentation he invented the Voltaic pile. The Voltaic pile was a bunch of copper and zinc discs put together in pairs and he separated the pairs with a piece of fabric soaked with salt water. Salt water will conduct electricity, so when the discs a fabric were all stacked together, it produced an electric current--With a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other. The battery had been invented, now mankind had something new to tinker with in their garage. Hey, did you ever wonder where the term Volt came from? After Volta produced an electric current with his Voltaic pile he wrote a letter to the Royal Society of London in March of 1800 and explained what he had discovered. The Royal Society of London for the Improvement of Natural Knowledge, more commonly know as The Royal Society was comprised of engineers, doctors, chemists and various educated men. Among residing in London them was an English surgeon, Sir Anthony Carlisle and William Nicholson a renowned chemist. Since they were in the Royal Society they heard what Volta had done in Italy. I am sure they discussed it over a spot of tea then headed to the work shop, or garage and built their first battery. I am curious, who was the first man to get shocked by a battery? I can imagine Volta saying “How many of these plates can I stack together. Now, let me see if I can reach the wire on the other end.” ZAP! I guess he did not include that in the letter, so William Nicholson probably did the same thing and got shocked, then said “Sir Anthony old chap, would you be so kind as to grab those two wires for me please?” ZAP! William would have laughed. What is significant about these two gentlemen in our walk through history of HHO is these two did it first. They took their newly built Voltaic pile battery and in the very same year discovered electrolysis. They found that by passing direct current through salt water from a positive electrode to a negative electrode the hydrogen and oxygen in the water separated and bubbled to the surface. I can see it now “Sir Anthony old chap, would you be so kind as to see if those gasses coming out of our brine solution will burn?” BOOM! Hey, you never know. But, now mankind had the capability of producing HHO gases through electrolysis. 1805 François Isaac de Rivaz a Swiss inventor changed the world. Thirty years earlier in about 1770, de Rivaz a young man in his late teens, started experimenting with the mechanics of the engine. He too was trying to make a better more powerful engine. De Rivaz was working with steam engines, which was the advanced technology of that era. But, he brought the engine to the next level. After thirty-five years of experimenting with engines in 1805 at the age of fifty-three, he upgraded the design and changed the engine and the world for ever. De Rivaz was the first person to fill the piston chamber with an explosive gas and ignite it with a spark. The internal combustion engine was now in the hands of man. François could not use gasoline, because it had not been developed yet, so what explosive gas did he use? I think you might have figured it out by now. De Rivaz used hydrogen and oxygen, HHO gas and where did he get that gas? You guessed it—from water, thanks to Sir Anthony Carlisle and William Nicholson and the exchange of ideas. He used electrolysis to separate the hydrogen from the oxygen in water over 200 years ago. Creating HHO gas is what this book is about and you will understand if fully by the time you reach the end of this book. In 1806 François Isaac de Rivaz patented his internal combustion engine and like I said he changed the world. 1862 Jean Joseph Etienne Lenoir invented the hippomobile. I don’t think he did much market research on that name! Jean was born in Belgium in 1822, just 6 years before the inventor of the internal combustion passed away. He immigrated to France in his 30’s and settled in Paris. Jean’s hippomobile was a three wheeled horseless carriage. It was basically a wagon on a three wheel frame with an internal combustion engine whose newer design he patented. The engine was called the Lenoir Engine. The engine in the final hippomobile ran on a mixture of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, methane and nitrogen, but the earlier models ran on HHO gas. That is right—his hippomobile ran on hydrogen generated from water by electrolysis. You would think that if Lenoir could run his old vehicle on water 150 years ago we should be able to engineer a car to run on it with all the technology we have today.  I wonder how many engineers we have in the world today.  The truth is it does not even take an engineer, just a person with the desire to start tinkering with the process and build a car that will run on water. There have been many patents and inventions that will allow us to run a car on water, but I will wrap up this hydrogen generator history lesson for now.  I do recommend that you look seriously into converting your car to run with a hydrogen gas generator to increase your mileage.  I have installed several that I made myself, but thousands have bought them already manufactured and installed them on their cars and trucks. The technology can be expensive, but it does not have to be if you are wise and understand everything about it before you take action. You can install one on your car for about $90 or more depending on how you do it.  The investment is worth it, because your gas mileage ca increased by up to 90%.  Before you convert your car into a Hydrogen Hybrid you need to do a little research and understand what to do and what not to do to get the most mileage increase possible.  I read the book water 4 gas, but from what I understand there are several other resources out there that contain basically the same information, but the ones that cost a little more are more thorough. I will list them in the resource section below. If you know of a good resource I missed, please email me and I can add it.
