This man (a retired school teacher) says he applied what many others on the internet describe as “on-board hydrogen generation”, with a couple of jars, some electrodes and potassium hydroxide. The resulted hydrogen is fed into the car’s intake, getting a 94% more mileage than the standard EPA rating, while also being safe to use.

Hydrogen-on-demand systems within the automotive industry may one day rock the world. If the current hydrogen on demand systems that are being developed pan out or if future hydrogen-on-demand systems take hold, this could mean that building a huge hydrogen gas infrastructure is not necessary. Currently, the hydrogen-on-demand systems that are being developed for the [...]
I know – it sounds gross, but obtaining hydrogen from urea is actually cheaper than obtaining it from water, through the same electrolysis process. The study is being led by Gerardine Botte of Ohio University and it all started from an idea to recycle the wastewater.
South Korea is taking their first steps towards hydrogen production. Government has signed a memorandum of agreement with oil refiner SK Energy and SK Engineering & Construction to build the world’s first trash-powered hydrogen station. Both companies are subsidiaries of South Korean conglomerate SK Group. The plant will be able to extract hydrogen from methane emitted by landfills.
A British company, ITM, has invented a device that does electrolysis and splits water into hydrogen. They even modified a Ford Focus to run on the hydrogen they make(basically no big deal, just a few adjustments to the top dead center of the pistons and a little chip tricking on the exhaust).
As I have said it many times before, inventions in the field of hydrogen storage are most desired, because hydrogen can be created easily from solar power, and offers nothing but water at the other end of the equation.

I still would like to know if there is a way to make sure that the electrical system wouldn’t take such a hit at the battery.
Perhaps it doesn’t, but you have to show me.

Hi, I checked it and it works on my computer (you may want to check you have the most recent flash player installed and activated. If I’ll find it on youtube, I’ll post it. Thanks.
