I asked Scott about this already. This company is in Oshawa. There are some sites claiming this is a hoax and others saying not. I think Scott said his BS meter started humming.
I'd say the Admiral has it in one, "Fishy" Fish and water go together like eggs and bacon. It would be no good to me anyways as my water is piped... :)
Seriously, do you see what I see ? :D
Ethereum Contract, forming a corporation
This HUGE marketable product everyone will want to BUY
Accepting crypto-currency ONLY
Make Mr. FIAT tremble in impotent fury ! :D
Paying ALL employees in crypto-currency
Having enough buying power to buy components with crypto-currency EXCLUSIVELY....
What a mess !!!..... Scott Duncan, you should seize this company, and make me the General Manager of it :P
:D
My idea is powering electric motors and charging batteries on a 70 plus foot steel hulled tri deck expedition vessel. Unlimited cruising!
Rossinavi Poseidon would be TITS!
i called them, he said the 5000w model will be coming out in spring. More info coming late november, and also they are starting to have meetings soon with people interested.
Another water power guy I read about in the past was Paul Pantone and the GEET. There are some youtube videos showing water as fuel in normal IC engines but still could be all BS.
its not B.S....i made a water hydrogen fuel cell and installed it in a 92' toyota tercell...it worked great it got 45 mi. to the gallon with the A/C on in the summer going up the mountain both ways to El Centro and back to San Diego 135+ mi.......till after extended use, the heat weakened the plastic caps on the jars and it exploded under the hood..hahahaa..plastic caps were used to avoid grounding..should have replaced the caps after a while..derka derka...all the parts were obtained from the pet store and home depot..for under a 100 frn's
took some paper to obtain the parts from the store and my time... it took the car from about 32 mpg to 45 mpg is still a gain?..is there something in my chimp brain that i am not comprehending?.... yes it had A/C,... who travels thru the desert w/o a/c?
It looks like Rick is describing a "joe cell" or something similar where electricity is used to break water into the elemental gases which are then fed into the intake of the motor. Not technically a fuel cell. Fuel cells use the gas to produce electricity.
i was going to say you couldn't produce enough hydrogen to replace the gasoline, (not without a vac/pump, compressor, coolant & storage tank. so how did you lean the fuel (gas) to compensate for the added hydrogen? what is the voltage required to sepparate the molecules in your fuel cell? did you use somonelses design plans?
No. MAKING a fuel cell is toxic in the extreme. Have you ever wondered what happens to the waste?
Look at Sudbury on google maps. Most of the world's nickel came from there. Notice it's just this dead circle surrounded by woodland? Why is it all dead?
What happens when MILLIONS use these things?
" you couldn't produce enough hydrogen to replace the gasoline "... What?
OK, here in REALITY, hydrogen is the second most abundant element in the universe and is also the SIMPLEST.
Gasoline is an extremely complex solvent, and exists only here on earth.
So, if you were "going to say", "you couldn't produce enough hydrogen to replace the gasoline", you were going to reveal just how profoundly ignorant you are, about even the most basic facts about the world around you.
"Models run from $5,360 Canadian to $14,885 Canadian, and will be available to the public �soon.� According to the company�s Alibaba site, GDS Technologies is currently capable of producing 400 portable water generators per month." - This alone sounds fishy.
The GDS Generator seems to be FRAUD at worst, or exaggerated claims, at best.
well yes ofcourse without further complicating the matter, ignorance would seem to be a party, however i chose to leave out pages of math and details MOST wouldnt begin to comprehend. much like the tender for law.
the difference between gas and hydrogen in thermal energy is ~1000:1 add to that one molecule of any gas occupies 24L in volume, so only fabricated as used such as Deans setup would produce (add some pressure release valves), similarly to using solar cells, it is the energy required to put the 'fuel' into storage which would consume much of the available energy, which I accounted for, that you did not.
it takes half an Amper of energy to store one Amper in a battery. if you can use it while you make it, the difference is quite large. putting it into storage is quite costly, which is the difference I was accounting for.
likewise one does not produce hydrogen. it is simply just there waiting to be used. yes the lightest and most abundant molecule in existance. what i would say to correct what i said's presumption is that to produce and store as a viable source of fuel for an engine takes more energy than it produces. it also has little use for anything else. while alcohol distillation can be consumed aswell as used as a disinfectant.
"while alcohol distillation can be consumed aswell as used as a disinfectant." - Where do you plan on getting this alcohol? Plants?
Which plants?
Brazil is trying that now, and they are clearing out the rain-forests to keep up. Alcohol is NOT the answer. OIL can be turned into gas for pennies a gallon, the rest is all profit.
Gas is STILL too cheap for ANY other form of energy to be viable.
I have plant material that can be used to make bio fuel! Problem is every time I go to try making a batch of fuel, my lighter sets it on fire and I lose interest in ...what was I saying ?
a simple backyard redneck distillation can produce 98% pure alcohol from fermented grain/seed which contains 75% of the volumetric energy as gasoline produces. it can be made ahead, stored, used as needed. disinfects the kitchen, and liquid refreshments.
a steam engine can crank a generator. there is tonns of free harvestable fallen wood to use as fuel.
its simply a matter of incorporating a steam pressure boiler to both heat the house, power a generator, and a still. use the alcohol to run the dirtbikes and snowmobiles, lawnmower, tractor etc..
maybe home made alcohol hydrogen hybrid fuel, and hemp seed oil lubricant is just the thing waiting to perfected.
Holy Fuck. Seriously. The way we use energy as a so called "society" none of the things Dave mentioned will work. I've been making my own bio diesel for 5 seasons now and it's getting harder and harder to do on the cheap. Sorry David I'm with Scott let's kill 2/3 of the morons and then worry about energy needs. Everyone is too stupid to hear anything but buy gas. Everyone I tell about biodiesel thinks I'm a liar or an idiot. With the same lame advice don't wreck your truck. Lame.
