I have a permanent magnet alternator that I plan to put a large fan blade on and put in the front of my car. the idea is to use the wind force that is already slowing down the car to turn the generator to make HHO to use in the engine. and since the wind is pushing against the car anyway why not put it to work to gain more power from the engine. another way would be to use solar panels to generate HHO while driving, you can use it as its made or use it on demand like store it under pressure in its container and then use it to accelerate from a stop to save fuel.
We've been punked.
