HHO Cell Flash Back Protection

One major safety feature that most people tend to over look is flash back protection for there HHO systems.  These flash ports, one way check valves, or pressure releases (all have same effect) need to be on your system in case hydrogen ignites inside the tubing of your system.  Without flash back protection all of the HHO in the system will ignite and since there is no pressure release it is at risk of exploding.  This will ultimately ruin your cell and you will have to start again from scratch.   Flash back ports can be as simple as using a T-connector and putting an empty balloon at one end so if there is an explosion it will blow off the balloon.  That is pretty archaic so I recommend either buying a one way check valve or making a flash port for your bubbler.  Trust me, unless you want an explosion to occur where it will ruin everything you have made, buy or make some sort of flashback protection.  The video below is a quick tutorial on how this guy makes his flashports for his bubbler out of relatively cheap parts.  Enjoy the video!

Wet Cell or Dry Cell: That is the Question

There is a lot of controversy today over which design for an HHO cell is best.  So I have found the answer for you like I am supposed to since it is my job here at HHO Database. It really only comes down to a few main points on why one is better than the other.  If you are just getting started and not too sure on how everything works, the wet cell is probably for you.  It is easier and cheaper to make therefore is the logical option for someone who is just starting or on a budget.  The only downsides to making these are they have a very rare chance of exploding due to spark inside the container, and you may need to make 2 or 3 and connect them all up to get the same output as one dry cell.  The dry cell is definitely more efficient.  It has less energy leakage and creates a greater output of HHO than a wet cell at the same voltage.  The downsides are you usually need to buy a kit from a website to get the parts, which is very expensive, and to make it yourself you would need a lot of material and knowledge with power tools.  My summary of the answer is basic so that is why I have provided the below video on the subject.  Hope the video helps and enjoy!

HHO Cell Heat Problems

A lot of people have emailed me asking me how to fix the heating problems with their cells.  And so i took it upon myself to fins a video or article on the internet that would explain the answer.  The answer to the heating problem is quite simple.  When everyone is making HHO cells they are  trying to connect positive leads and negative leads to every other plate which is a big problem.  This causes the same amount of electricity to go to each of the plates causing an excess amount of volts going through the cell.  Electrolysis is what we are aiming for.  Electrolysis is the process in which oxygen and hydrogen break their bonds in the water molecule and become a gas when electricity is passed through them.  This process starts happening when around 1.8 volts is passed through the water.  Maximum electrolysis happens at right about 2 volts.  So when you try to connect leads from a 12 volt battery to every plate, there is excess and therefore a waste of electricity which is given off as heat.  So to combat this problem, you must introduce neutral plates to your cell to even out the flow of voltage through the cell.  This video I have found is again from HHO Connection (he is great with this stuff).  He explains, and shows, how neutral plates help with the heating problem. Enjoy!

Introduction to HHO Experimentation

If you are considered a "noob" of HHO technology.  I have come across a man on youtube that seems to know a lot about the subject of HHO tech.  In this video, he explains the basics of HHO gas and  how to get started with HHO experimentation.  Please enjoy the video and study up.
