But because doing this is so easy, light and cheap; whyTH not!? Every bit helps! Waste not want not n all that.
Because 2.1 liters of hydrogen is something like 6 Wh of energy per hour, then you lose at best some 60% of that, so now we're at around 2Wh of energy. I mean, sure, every bit helps. But even though this is so easy, light and cheap, it would seem to me that most any other eco-mod that is just as easy, light and cheap would yield better results for your time and money. Not to mention that there's energy lost to making the tubing and such. Would 2Wh per hour of recaptured energy, driven an assumed few hours a day, ever make up the lost energy for making and shipping the tubing?

You do whatever you want, that's just my two cents.
