I forgot to put this in my last post. If power consumption is the problem with HHO, why would a Audio amp Capacitor not work? It stablizes a 1000W + amp and that is FAR more than the upto 30 amps HHO pulls? I mean if we were able to have power delivered that is stored, and uses very little power from the battery and charging system, then why not on any thing else? AllanD used a Capacitor to help with power to a transmitter and he had 4 heavy Duty Batteries and a 150amp alternator and stated that the Cap helped tremendously. So why not?
The problem with HHO run off of "onboard power" is that energy out can NEVER equal energy input.
This because of the simple truth that to Split water into
Hydrogen & Oxygen takes more energy than you'll
get by burning the hydrogen.
So it is completely irrelevant how much energy you pour into
it if it's always going to be at a 70% loss.
Do you get it yet?
You will ALWAYS pour more into it than you can get back
In principle it's like having a gas tank with a hole in it
the harder you try to pump it full the more fuel you will waste.
It's just that simple
Capacitors don't create energy, they can't, but they charge up when demand is low and dump it when demand is high, they are great for swallowing spikes
and filling in troughs, but they can no more power anything than they can support the weight of a car without a spring. Capacitors is nothing more than an electrical shock absorber.
"short term" energy storage delivery. I'm talking miliseconds here.
I saw one with California plates on it the other day. Last month I saw one with Alaskan plates. At work i saw one with Texas plates. I live in Buffalo, NY. I am thinking they handle road trips just fine. I mean, Toyota only tested them to 500 thousand miles though, who knows what would happen if you tried to drive a Prius on a 40 mile commute.
It'd probably explode around the 10 mile mark.
You must work hard at it to be a complete freaking idiot...
Or are you being obtuse on purpose?
A Prius is great for getting city mileage on short trips where the electric motor can come into play, but on longer trips or even at highway speeds the battery runs out and you are running purely on the gasoline engine
and at that point the Prius isn't as good as MANY other moderatly efficient
NON-Hybreds.
Yeah they get better mileage than the upscale SUV (Escalade?) they
probably replaced, but are about on par with a midsized Volvo
on a long trip.
Yeah you can drive one long distances, but it isn't what they
are designed for or what they are best at.
MAKG,
you are also more hyped on furthering your agenda than actually READING what was said and responding to it.Instead you are reading what you WANT and responding to that.
And I have just caught you doing it...I didn't say Commercial Geothermal didn't exsist, anyone who has ever heard the name "Iceland" knows it does.
what I said was if you try to Develop it anywhere in the US you'll have the NIMBY's on your ass so fast you'd swear that god put NIMBY's up your ass via evolution..
Either that or Greenpeace will have a picket line out to protect some little plant that grows on the hot spring you want to want to drill into to tap for energy.
and don't tell me it hasn't happened or won't happen again.
even the most "Green" people on earth scream in outrage if you suggest doing something "green" next door to them.
You should heard the howls of protest when a local farmer put up a wind generator, the transplanted city people across the road from him complained that it ruined their unspoiled view of the countryside
But they conveniently forgot that they sued him over the smell from his cattle heard shortly after they moved in, so he literally didn't give a cow's ass what they wanted and SAID SO in the township meeting. (that farm has been there for ~200years their house is 2004 construction on property from the break up of another farm)
those same city assholes complained about the dust that got on their car from his harvesting his wheat.
NIMBY=Not In My Back Yard
They are everywhere!
And I didn't say remote generation wasn't more efficient
I said that people buying an electric car seem to FORGET
that the electricity has to come from SOMEWHERE.
I had someone berating me for heating with Oil and Coal
they seem to forget that if I had electric heat it would
heat my house LESS efficiently in addition to costing more.
Using heat directly as HEAT is actually quite efficient.
(more efficient than converting the heat to mechanical energy then to electrical energy THEN transmitting it t my house...)
and considering that BOTH my furnace and my coal stove
are "forced draft" there is actually very little heat loss.
(you can hold your hand against the coal stove chimney)
