    Awsome Electrolyte!

    Recently several people in my family including my dad and I have really gotten into the concept of separating hydrogen out of water through electrolysis. We now have a working unit on our work truck and have found a great electrolyte for it! It's basically ocean water evaporated down from 100 gallons to 1 gallon. In this process 99% of the sodium and most of the chloride precipitate out of the solution. So, we are left with a great electrolyte and you can tell when you see that hydrogen bubble up! We are currently selling these on ebay it's well worth taking a look at. Just type in HHO electrolyte under all items and it will bring you right to it. Hope this helps a lot of you out, it sure has helped us!

    Sounds to me like its a heavy concentration of sea salt in the mix. I think it would do as a good electrolyte on the bench, but be careful because the salt water will produce chlorine gas as an electrolysis by product and can not only affect your health and well being, but also pose a threat to your engine components because it is a corrosive gas.

    pls do not use seawater as electrolyte.....

    Hey, what a great idea to sell sea water by calling it "Great Electrolyte".

    Besides the deadly gas
    http://keelynet.com/interact/archive/00001749.htm

    How about the effects of chlorine gas(long term use) on an engine?

    I could make a couple million dollars by killing people and doing damage to so many vehicles. Yea..thats it, thats the ticket...yea.

    KOH (Potassium Hydroxide) is available in several places on the net.

    Not very nice to knowingly sell deadly and destructive products to people.

    Perhaps you didn't note that this isn't "sea water". When you remove 99% of the sodium, and most of the chloride and calcium, it changes its effects. We have had this tested by experts in the field, and their conclusion was that it was the best electrolyte they had seen.

    Somehow the mineral complex in ocean water (minus the NaCL) works quite well as an electrolyte.

    sound more like a scam to me......

    Uhh guys... before anyone bashes the OP again:

    he does say

    "99% of the sodium and most of the chloride precipitate OUT of the solution."

    this is interesting... he has a great arguement for it on ebay:

    SOME OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THE OTHER FUEL
    CELL ELECTROLYTES THAT ARE IN COMMON USE

    • Baking soda is plainly problematic. It leaves a white residue that is hard to get out.
    • Sodium Citrate starts bubbling up into the hose, and puts an orange residue in the air intake system.
    • KOH – potassium hydroxide crystals put out a lot of hydrogen gas, but also put out hydrodge sulfide, which is highly toxic, something like nerve gas. Most of the law suits coming out of HHO production are because of this toxic gas. Potassium Hydroxide in powder form emits the same toxic gas, plus it can burn the skin.
    • Sodium Hydroxide powder is not as bad as potassium hydroxide. It produces a lot of gas, but also produces hydrogen sulfide gas, and if you get Sodium Hydroxide powder on your skin, it will burn. Also, aluminum is highly reactive with it. Sodium Hydroxide will quickly dissolve aluminum.
    • Tap water shortens the life of the Fuel Cell. It leaves a lot of residue, and doesn’t seem to produce enough gas.
    • Distilled vinegar, though we have found it to be the next best thing to AG-USA’s Electrolyte, isn’t pure. It has it’s unwanted contaminants. Plus it is more bulky to transport.
    is this not true?

    based on this info I would be interested in toying with distilled vinegar...


    Does the OP have a response?

    where does the sulfide come from?
