Lets not lose sight of 3 basic principles here. 1) We aren't making that much gas really. 2) It takes a lot of energy to make the extra fuel. 3) It defies the laws of physics if it were to even be a break-even system, much less one that improves mileage.
Once again I remind all of us here that the amount of actual fuel produced here is very small, it takes hours to make a quart of water into its gas constituent parts of hydrogen & oxygen, and since gasoline is primarily hydrogen fuel, and a gallon of gasoline makes a gallon of water, you'd be lucky to add 2% of fuel to the engines fuel demand. And the hydrogen created isn't some sorta miracle fuel, it's just hydrogen.
Drawing even 35 amps to make hydrogen requires 1/2 horse power to create, and with a 25% efficient engine, and 80% efficient alternator, you’re talking needing 2.5 horsepower to make the 1/2. Rough numbers, but you get the idea. 2.5 HP or 10% of the engine power to make 2% more fuel.
It just adds up to not gonna help. There is no "maybe it will help a little", cause if it even broke even, it would be the definition of a perpetual motion machine. I think we're all a little too smart to believe in perpetual motion aren't we? Maybe just tiny bit too smart? That’s all it takes.
Just Say No! to perpetual motion notions.
