You know, it seems that most of this site is about doing things that increase mpg. Some here seem to be more about saving money and/or gas (walking, riding bikes), which don't increase the mpg of their car, but DO save gas.
There is also the undercurrent of being able to "prove" - at least quantify - the savings with real-world results. When looking at windshield wiper delete, I saw some did it & also that some couldn't detect any measurable improvement. It was simple & quick enough that I tried it anyway, and guess what? - I detected no measurable improvement. So I put 'em back on so I could use them.
Now to this HHO/on-board hydrogen generator subject: When some try the cheap & simple windshield wiper delete, can't detect improvement & decide to move on to "lower hanging fruit", how can anyone expect us to be easily persuaded to try the HHO/on-board hydrogen generator when it's neither quick, cheap, nor has evidence of saving any more gas/money than a windshield wiper delete?
Now, I love experimenting and admire anyone who does it. But convincing us here on the EcoModder site that HHO/on-board hydrogen generation is wonderful without being able to show real-world results in saving gas/money, and being simple/quick/cheap enough to try to duplicate (peer reviewed/repeatable tests) will probably be a pretty tough sell. I believe this is why comments like, "So do it then, & get back to us with your real-world test results" are frequently seen in these threads.
And telling me how smart you are (and maybe how dumb I am), talking about all kinds of math & chemistry, computerized, sensor-monitored, dynos, laboratories etc, is not nearly as convincing as something like, "hey, I've been driving it for the last XXX months, and in XXX tanks of gas, I'm seeing an improvement of XXX and confirmed it when I disconnected it and my mpg went back to XXX". - accompanied by your fuel log with notations on this site. THEN one of us might go, "hmmm - think I'm gonna try that too". Then if that person can confirm similar results, THEN you're talking!!!
And if the "flamers" on here are too rude, I expect its from impatience - from hearing over and over again how wonderful it is, how smart the people who believe in it are, how dumb we are, and all without the real-world evidence that it even works.
So at the risk of being labeled another "idiot" who doesn't understand math, chemistry, and lab practice, I'll add to the chorus: "So do it then, & get back to us with your real-world test results".
