Yea, i've been into this for a month now. I'm almost done getting a lawn mower to run on water just have to make a DC pulser for it. Also when i'm done w/ that i will make something kinda like that to cut metals. Then move on to getting my truck to run on it.

All yea i'm not using a Joe's cell like most people use i'm using a E-gas cell or browns gas one.

It seems like a really smart fuel, seeing as a massive % of our earth is covered in water...

You know what would be a better fuel than Water, Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2). Get hit of the Extra O2 and you'll have water, ie H2O, and O2. Since hydrogen cars need O2, it might provide better miliage than just water. (most Hydrogen peroxides have 3% H2o2, and the rest is water)

The problem with H2O2 is that is degrades fast in direct sunlight and heat.(2H2O2 -> 2H2O + O2) Thats why it is in a brown bottle and has a small on in the lid. Also, concetrated H2O2 is very toxic to humans.

Not to mention H202 has a nasty habit of blowing up

But think of how much it would fizz if you got too much bateria in there, your fuel tank could blow up if someone dumped like a penicillin pill in there
