Has anyone tried a van de graff generator on a hho cell
I'm sure it has, do an extensive word search and you should find something. Here is a funny video of something similar.

These cells want low voltage, usually 2v per cell. This generator would
suit the antigravity lifter people who revel in appallingly high voltages.
There is High Voltage and there is static Electricity which has a High Voltage potential
Static electricity behaves different than conventional High Voltage.
Therefore I think author Dave45 has made a valid point,and unless someone has tried it, there is no need for an answer that does not relate directly to the question. Simply admit that you have not tried it and then submit your reasons and suggestions
Meyers quoted using high Voltage. In comparison to a 2 Volt brute force cell anything above that can be construed as High Voltage.
Since we are not sure whether it is High Voltage low Current or for instance resonance that causes the Voltage to rise and the Current to drop similar as if you tune up an antenna we still don't know that with the passing of a dozen of years .
Meyers can no longer be queried, but there is Dingle and http://peswiki.com/index.php/Directory:Water_Fueled_Car_-_Sri_Lanka
You may find your answers there if you can convince them to share it with you..
I have no van de graaf generator otherwise I would try it.Crazier things have been tried i.e. Cold electricity

the reason I ask is Meyer's circuit was supposed to be high voltage low current, I thought a van generator would produce the effect but Im not sure if there's a way to control it.
Another thought if you take a plate capacitor made with donut shaped plates what kind of field would be produced inside the hole, and what effect it might have on water, Iv been collecting the disk's out of hard drives they have the right shape, Im thinking of making a plate capacitor and charging it with a van de graff to see what kind of field it would produce (electrostatic) but if the capacitor was hooked to AC current then it would be moving current (electromagnetic ?)
Iv got to get the generator first been looking on ebay sometimes it cost a chunk of change to check out an idea.

This is also my scenario. For the sakes of finding out I will not spend great amounts of money on a van de graaf , mind you you could build one of single sided pc Board Material and etch in the collectors.
Time consuming and frustrating especially if you finally find out that it doesn't work as exspected. But your thoughts are intriguing.
But remember Meyers and others used about 500ma ,thus being a high current for electrostatic devices as we know them,
with the exception of the Testatika machine which produces Kilowatts after it gets processed by a
secret converter ,if true it would somewhat invalidate my above statement.
Maybe cheaper to string up a long wire and wait for the right conditions to obtain your electrostatic charge

Van de Graff's HV generator for electrolysis? Nope.
This gen is a HV (High potential) energy gen... It builds a high potential (voltage) but very low capacity (electrons) energy "reservoir" - conditions.
Like people mentioned before, for an electrolysis, you need a HIGH CURRENT & LOW VOLTAGE source of energy...
The opposite of the "Van de Graff"....
Hi spinner
I most likely agree with you,but unless I try something I would be reluctant to make such statement.
Meyers Dingle and Thushara Priyamal Edirisinghe have proven otherwise. http://peswiki.com/index.php/Directory:Water_Fueled_Car_-_Sri_Lanka
Ifit is as you quote, I suppose stifflers device is likewise of no value for HHO generation?
Testika creates Megawatts if it is true . It is a hybrid electrostatic machine.
Brute force is the exception.Lots of amps!
