Have A Hydrogen Generator Car In A Weekend
Monday, July 21st, 2008
Do you hear at least once a week in the news about the rising cost of oil? Is the cost of filling up your car every week taking it’s toll on your weekly budget? Well no more. Today, as in almost immediately, you can be running your own car on water ie a hydrogen generator car.
Even though a hydrogen generator car sounds like something from the future, it’s here with us today. The technology is actually about 90 years old, but there are reasons it’s taken so long to surface (but that’s a story for another day).
A lot of business that rely on the rising cost of oil for their profits have fought this technology, but with the day and age in which we live today, with the internet at our fingertips, how could technology which will turn your regular car into a hydrogen generator car stay buried any longer.
You may be surprised to learn that the process to turn your car you own now into a hydrogen generator car is very very simple. It also applies to trucks and diesel engines. You need a simple, inexpensive kit, a few hours of your time, and hey presto!
Who would have thought that just $100 - $200 will get the job done, meaning within a week or two of saving money at the gas station each week, you will have made back that money and then some. The advantages that go with this system besides the obvious saving are endless, however here are some of the more important ones:
*enhance your engines power
* cleaner car emissions promoting cleaner healthier air for us to breathe
* removes and prevents build up of carbon
* engine runs cooler
* notice a calmer, quieter and much smoother engine & gearshifts
* your engine will live a long happy life
* system is easily reversible (really - why would anyone?)
With a dash of water and a pinch of baking soda your hydrogen generator car will be up and running within a few hours. Hydrogen-on-demand or Brown’s gas is what drives this system. This means hydrogen does not need to be stored as this can be dangerous. This system is very safe.
A simple system with a simple installation at a very low cost - sounds good doesn’t it? Don’t be ripped off any more by those ever increasing fuel costs, And be proud that you are more than doing your bit for the environment.
Lets consider for a moment the alternatives - your car as it is right now compared to a hydrogen generator car. How much will you be paying to fill your car up in a years time? Will you have that much spare money? Should you have to put up with it? Would it feel better to save money and save the environment?
At the other end of the spectrum is investing in a hybrid car. This means expensive initial outlay, expensive batteries often, emissions not reduced on highways, no extra power to engine, and would take fifty odd years to recoup the initial outlay in weekly savings.
And as if all that isn’t enough, do you know you can actually get paid to install such a system. Yes that’s right - in return for having a hydrogen generator car you can actually get paid - even if you would rather your favourite mechanic do it for you (even though you need no technical skills or knowledge) - you still get paid.
A great idea designed to stop you from getting taken for a ride. But maybe you should check it out and see for yourself how easily you could accomplish this.

Motorcycle Helmets - There Are Many Different Varieties
Monday, July 21st, 2008
There are advantages and disadvantages in the many types of motorcycle helmets offered on the market these days. These are design for safety while try to feel comfy on your head. Examine which feature if not both are for you in a motorcycle helmet. Lets go over what some of the helmets have to offer.
The full-face helmet is very generally used as protection when riding motorcycles. This helmet envelopes the full face and head. Did you know that above 1/3 of the motorcycle accident the riders have mostly facial injuries? It helps to know that this helmet prevents some of these from happening in the first place. Comfort is not at the top of the list of features for this helmet though. The big beef with this helmet is how weighty and not very comfortable to wear it is. A few riders have said that they believe they have helped their necks be hurt because of then weight. No clinical proof available for backing this up though.
There is a helmet that is not up to par as far as safety is concerned that can still be legally used. It is called a half helmet. These helmet are more round shaped and resembles the open face helmets and they only provide some protections for the top of the head and gives none to the base of the head and the neck at the back. The face is not safe in these helmets. They also don’t stay in place and shift on the head this is blamed on the shape.
As with the full-face motorcycle helmets the open face helmets truly do protect the head but unlike the full-face ones the open face ones do not protect the face and chin. The rider who may prefer to have this wider range of vision will find this helmet fits the bill but they do sacrifices greatly on safety for their face. Some models do have the mounts for an individual to add a visor. Motorcyclists do seem to enjoy using this particular style of helmet.
Maybe you would like a flip up visor on your helmet? The flip up helmet offers this along with covering the face, chin and head. With this helmet you can just simply lift up the face and chin guard. This gives you the best of two helmets combined in one by offering the total functionality that the full-face is along with the fact of ease to get to your face when needed as in then open face one.
For the sport of motocross a helmet has been designed that has some similarities to the full-face helmets. But with the visor and chin guards being expanded this is where these two helmets are not similar. Part of the visor is created in such a way as to allow users to wear goggles replacing the visor. The chin guard is designed for added function as motocross riders fall a lot in motocross and often land on there face and added protection is given through the design of this helmet.
One of the motorcycle helmets that are not approved for safety because it does not qualify is the beanie helmet. But they look close enough to the legal helmets to fool some. These helmets are worn by riders who do not like the heaviness of the true safety helmets but don’t want to get a ticket by not having a helmet is not advised. Research and try on helmets to find which of the many motorcycle helmets you feel comfortable in while being protected.
Unless you just have a hard time making up your mind there are enough different types of motorcycle helmets on the market today to accommodate you. One tip to use in deciding is to consider how daring you get with your motorcycle travels to help with how high a functionality you need in your helmet. The main idea to get into your head about helmets is that you need to wear them every time you ride to safeguard yourself against injury. Umber one on your list should always be safety.

How To Build A HHO Hydrogen Generator For Car
Monday, July 21st, 2008
Everyday, many people are searching for terms like “HHO hydrogen generator” or “how to run a car on water with a HHO hydrogen generator”. After reading this article, you will have a good idea of how to start.
Why build a HHO hydrogen generator kit?
In case you do not have the full picture, a HHO hydrogen generator kit is used to convert water into HHO. HHO is also called Brown’s gas, Rhode’s gas, Di-Hydroxy and a lot of other names. This gas is a clean air that aids the combustion of gasoline. In short, our engines will still need gas to run, except that the HHO can help to improve the combustion and hence the gas mileage. Got the idea?
Our internal combustion engines are poor workers when it comes to combusting the gasoline into useful energies for powering our vehicles. Only 25% of gasoline converts into power that runs our cars. The rest are lost in the form of noises, heat, pollution and unburned fuel that damages our engines.
How to build a HHO hydrogen generator kit
You need a mini system of a electrolyzer, a water reservoir and bubbler. All the parts can be bought from hardware stores for less than $120. Here’s the shopping list.
1. Pure Baking Soda as the Catalyst 2. Electrolyzer (Hydrogen Generator) 3. Electrolyzer Wiring Harness 4. Vaporizer (Charged Water System) 5. Tubing For Water Charging 6. Vacuum-T and Hose 7. Vacuum Hose For Air Filter 8. Dual Edge Map Sensor Enhancer 9. Fuel Heater 10. PCV Enhancer 11. Quick Splice Connectors
Once the HHO hydrogen generator kit is ready, plug it into the carburetor. Also it needs to be connected to the 12 Volts of the car battery for power.
That’s it. You now know more than most people about how to build a HHO hydrogen generator for car.
