Comment RSSHHO Hydrogen Generators & Safety | Good Electrical Connections Reduce Explosion Hazards
24.04.08 # 16:38 # Videos I uploaded # 5 CommentsIf you saw my other post on HHO hydrogen generators, you know we like to build our own homemade fuel cells. This stuff isn’t rocket surgery, folks. Even us rural Alberta rednecks can make a functioning HHO hydrogen generator from common hardware store items. Having said that, there is the potential to make a dangerous explosive device by accident. In fact, we did make an explosion accidentally. It happened in Aron’s house, on the kitchen table. The generator we built was working great, until it exploded and blew both ends off the housing. Fortunately, nobody was hurt and only the generator was damaged.
What we think happened was that a loose connection inside the unit made a spark, which ignited the hydrogen. Since then, we have modified our design to contain no connections of any kind inside. The anodes are one solid piece of material from the outside all the way to the end inside.
You can find lots of links to hydrogen generators,where you can get plans for them and even finished units at HHO Hydrogen Fuel Cell Generators. I have also started building a new website to put all of our HHO hydrogen exploits.

I still ain’t letting my hubby build one of those things.
I think our wives are kind of glad we are working on something semi productive for a change. We usually just light things on fire or blow hem up.
Thanks for the report about no no follow.
I think it’s a great idea, obviously. But it could be way too dangerous for the average person. I think too many people will end up hurting themselves and others… but I could be wrong.
Great post, I just hope people have all the safety equipment they need on hand before trying this on their own.
