water wheel -> no water.

Ok.. so been thinking of all the water ideas and how they dont really work so how bout this:

A: Energy in: have a electrolosis thing at the bottom of your machine. it produces hydrogen.

Energy out:
B:  Hydrogen escapes up unto a upside down bucket connected to a chain, which pulls the chain up -> mechanical energy
C:  At the top the hydrogen escapes when the bucket goes up, and is then combusted, or put through a fuel cell to make electrical energy.

Can someone do the mathmatics on how this would work??

Hey I was just wondering, if anyone can tell me, isn't more energy used up in separating the hydrogen than is gained by using the hyrdogen?

I keep seeing water energy type devices and I was wondering...

@ snowblind

If you could produce cheaply so much hydrogen to get that contraption of yours to work, wouldn't you be better off to feed it into an internal combustion engine?

Thats the point.

by memory creating hydrogen via electrolosis, and then reusing it in the fuel cell is something like one third efficiancy. the other 2 thirds would come from spinning the belt/wheel contraption..

With what??
