This device is capable of producing hydrogen on an almost continous basis using water batteries. It has taken me almost a year to develop this process. My first attempts could produce H for about 30 seconds. I have been running this unit as long as 3 weeks.
I could now keep it running indefinitly by changing the water twice a week and switching out the anodes one a time and soaking them in CLR for 30 seconds and then placing them back into the system.I need to do this about one every 7 days. I do this by having one extra cell available and switch it into the system as needed.
You will see in the video a total of 20 cells total and they are configured into two banks of 10 in parallel. This increases the current. Without a drain the voltage is around 8 volts (800 mv/ cell) when electrolyzing the voltage is around 3 volts at 1.2 ma, very low wattage but yet eletrolysis occures. All 20 cells use a 2 sq ft foot print so this would be easily scaleable by adding additional cells in parallel , the youtube connection is:

Hope you find it interesting

I am somewhat surprised that this posting did not seem to generate any interest but I will go ahead and post my second video anyway.
By increasing the size of the water battery I have been able to increase the amperage
from .5 ma to over 5 ma an increase of 1000%. Additional cathode tubes will increase that even more. This will result in a like increase of H production.
Here is the youtube link.
I think this work is important!

Its an interesting experiment looking forward to seeing results when you get the larger tubes finished
I totally agree with craZy, I´ve never thought about such a nice and simple battery.
If I understand it right, it's all about the total area of the anodes and cathodes exposed to the tap water.
If you stacked the plastic tube with copper tubes and put one zinc-coated rod with perforated rubber distances in each copper tube,
and made ten of these reaching from floor to ceiling stacked together in a corner of the room, it would occupy
a fairly small area and still generate a substantial amount of current, I think.
Then a simple system of converging hoses from each plastic tube controlled by a valve would make the water replacement easy .
Now, if it managed to reach the 3 Ampere level which I believe is needed to drive a Pulse Width Modulator, and you combined
this with the incorporation of a so called dry cell, like the Sid-Cell type, you are in HHO business billmehess.
Now your only concern would be where and how to collect the generated HHO, without risking the safety of your near and dear.
I think I have to test this, if you don´t mind. It is too inspiring to keep my hands off this brilliant simplicity.

Who is this wozizi and what is this nonsense that he is posting?

Yes the more area exposed by the cathode and anode the higher the current generated. It is the current that will drive the amount of hydrogen generated.
It seems to me that this system can be easily scaled up. The problem with H production is that it has always taken more energy for the electrolysis process to take place than can be produced by the hydrogen that is generated.
My tests are confirming that this battery system can be regenerated by simply adding water.
Its also very interesting that after a few days just through evaporation if I top off the cells with tap water the voltage returns to the same level (or more) as when I started.I have been running hundreds of tests for the last 3 months and they all point to a working system.
I am going to drop in tomorrow another 32" copper rod and see how much more the current increases. I already have a 1000% increase with this new cell. With a number of these cells in series I might really have something here!
