Help with making a Hydrogen fuel cell....

[crash_uni8]

well basically i want to try and make a fuel cell for my mini cooper...

getting the power from the 12v car battery seems to be the easiest way but...
is it possible to make the hydrogen from the alternator's power?

also ive been wondering if different types of metals for the cells would increase output(copper, aluminum,graphite plates?)

Search youtube for  joe's cell stage 3
where you no longer need gasoline.

Stanley Meyer also invented a device which injected
exploding hydrogen at the very top of the compression
stroke.   He called it "injecting thermo explosive energy".
Sound frequency explodes the water at the needed moment.
The device replaces the spark plug, uses the ignition coil
spark to convert water to explosive.

The best metal choice for an electrode is 316L stainless steel, that is affordable anyways.
Platinum or platinum coated 316L would be the absolute best choice but not pratical nor affordable.
You can get pre-made electrodes or just the plates here. www.hydro-extra.webs.com
