High voltage HHO by IronHead

[hkyle]

Sorry mramos i disagree with you. would you give a child a loaded gun? there is not difference. Take it slow for the people that realy don't understand. Just because someone knows how to stick a couple of plates in a vat of water and put some voltage to it does not mean he / she is ready for what is to come or knows what he is doing.

What's the hurry?

It's not you that knows how to do this, if it was you wouldn't be here. The only one here who has replicated or has gotten anywhere is ironhead..this is his shit and he can go as slow as he wants...he could just say the hell with you all and take his stuff and run..but no where is he? He is right here with the rest of us showing US how to replicate HIS design. It is up to him.

enough said.

Going to bed..  Thanks Velmax..

Hoped this thread would have sped up.  I have 2 cells now and I know mine is a lot better (and all the plates have holes and only 3 plates).  But hoped to learn and make mine better.

This is going too slow.  Why the game?  Outline the steps (not show your game) and let all here figure it out and share. 

Anyone that gets hurt, that was "their" choice.  If they do NOT know the power they should not be here. 

I have seen the "light" and back after 2 years (light as in "big bang" that stopped me before).

Can we step it up or move to another place?

I concur w / hkyle.. this pace is working just fine, and my house still has four walls thank you.

Just got my new power supply built..This guy will only put out 150 watts worth of power, it's built out of an old computer power supply...There is also a Variac hooked up to this so I can control the voltage going to the cell..

Trust me that's all the watts I am going to need.

My last cell put out 6-7 liters / min on 324 watts. Efficiency is the key how well you make and seal your cell.

Hey Raptor lol...

Also I just purchased the container that will be holding the electrolyte. The thanks goes to Keithturtle for that. This is going to work great.

Variac on a pc pwr supply... there's an innovative use of something that I know for me I've got enough of them, some serve as doorstops, paperweights .. source of already cut to length jumpers...
Well, I cannibalized the pwm controller off that little benchtop mill I have last night, and fired it up, but the output has a built in over current protection built in, which cuts out at 4.5A... I got it to run for a while at 36volts, but it heated up and then just kept shutting off... so looks like I'm back to building a ghetto pulse unit, with a encoder & disk from a printer... switching a fet... I've got an old apc ups unit that's got 24vdc out to keep the batteries charged, at a decent current.

One thing that keeps popping into my head though, is trying my variac with a diode on one leg of the ac only... giving a ->->-> & <><><>

Keep the sparks to a minimum...

@rapttor
This is what ironhead suggested for me a while back. The one speed controller is good for up to 40amps at 24 volts...not to bad but still good for testing...I'm still thinking about it.

A variac regulates power by limiting the amplitude of the voltage sine wave. By restricting the maximum voltage of the sine wave a variac limits the area under the curve which is equivalent to limiting the power contained in a single sine wave.

Not sure it that helps ya. But I think you would be better off with a full wave bridge instead of a single diode.

Was that diode before or after the variac?

Have you ever looked into the pulse DC motor controllers like that used in electric cars or scooters. I use this one on my Jeep cell . It 's fully programmable 14 to 58 volts and
can handle up to 330 amps. The 48330 Motor Controller

For testing you can try something like this but it is not programmable , just a cheap way to go for testing, pulsing ,and controlling amps.

I have been working with the VIC and do not prefer it at this time.
This is why I have not yet posted anything about the VICs design and its outcome.
Also in the VIC pdf (Attached) there are many things to confuse or to cover the patent.
For instance there are no resisters at the chokes , It's just showing two or 3 ways to do it in the same layout.


Volts are key in a capacitor type cell.
