The best three hydrogen
conversion kitsis water4gas
With
the rising gas prices, the demand for these 'conversion kits' have
grown tremendously and many
products and DIY guides have been released to the market
with prices ranging from $29
to $7000. Not
all of them are equally
effective, thus we reviewed multiple
products and the three
most effective products are discussed below. water4gas is a
scam just like Run your car on water
Water4gas
and Run
your car on water were the best two products
The
books were subjected to a strict critical analysis. There
were many common features between the two while there were few
significant differences as well. Both systems work with both
gasoline and diesel cars,
vans,
trucks, and SUVs.
Both provide pretty simple and easy to follow directions. They
are kits are DIY kits and are
extremely popular and used throughout the world due to the
extremely economical price tag costing less than $100 to build.
Both are
based on the same scientific principles. However there were significant
differences as well; following is
a summary of the comparison in a tabular form: water4gas is second to the other not
because it's a scam, but because it's more expensive
Top recommendation
Based on:
- Practical ease and time taken for
setup
- Fuel
savings
- Cost of setup (under $60) for the water4gas based scams
- Customer service
- Environmental benefits
Run
your car on water scam?
Our
top pick is
Run your car on water
because we feel the system is more complete; material used are more
tolerant; and the technology can be used in both older (carbureted) and
newer
cars (fuel-injected).
The guidelines and illustrations are
also precise, concise, clearly explained and easy to
follow. Also, the mechanical knowledge required for assembling the
system is minimal. The device works with regular tap water unlike many
others that
strictly require distilled water. Typically increases gas
mileage by as much as 45% (that's $1000 savings annually, at
current gas
prices) with a dramatic reduction of emmissions.
As mentioned earlier too, one of the main
reasons why Run your car on water was our top
pick was because this system was more complete. Here are the main
components of the system;
- Hydrogen/Oxygen
generator - the
electrolyzer that breaks down water
- Hytronics
module - the electronic
circuit that controls the electronic signal necessary for electrolysis
- In-dash
indicator - to
monitor all aspects of the water-hybrid system
- Flame
arrestor - protects against
combustion flashback in to the electrolyser
- Water
tank - the simplest part of
the system
The
Hytronics
module is the main difference between Run your car on water and water4gas. Electronic signals from this
initiate and
sustain the creation of hydrogen and oxygen within the Generator.
Another reason why this was the top pick was the material by which the
hydrogen/oxygen generator was made, CPVC.
CPVC pipe is extremely durable and temperature tolerant, compared to
glass bottles, as advised in other guides. Run your car on water also works on both fuel‐injected and
carbureted motor vehicles.

As of June 2008, there
was a substantial
discount advertised ($49 vs the original $297). The
discount may have already been withdrawn. Click here to find out if the

This excellent
product, water4gas
was rated second only to Run your car on water, mainly because it's
slightly more expensive. You get a lot more detail with this product,
but not all of it is necessary to build an
electrolyser. Some of the
information is on building 100% water cars that need no gasoline at
all. However we don't recommend you spend time on that (unless for
research purposes). Nevertheless, water4gas comes with
excellent customer support and free updates for life. It is also
available in multiple languages for world wide usage.
One of
the main unique features of water4gas is
that water4gas shows you how to build multiple cells/electrolysers
which can be combined to produce more hydrogen. This means, more fuel
savings. Sometimes you don't get a significant additional increase of
fuel effieciency with the use of more than one electrolyser. It depends
on the individual situation. It also talks about tweaking your system
further using MAP sensors and Oxygen sensors.

Hydrorunner
system is the third best apart
from
water4gas 
This
system is undoubtadly the best product, but we've ranked it third
purely based on it's price tag
Experiments
done by them had
revealed
- 84% increase of gas mileage
- 10%
increase of horse power
- 8%
increase
in torque
- 90%
reduction of
green
house gases (CO2)
- Extended
engine life
The
speciality of this system vs other systems like water4gas and Run your
car on water is that, it has a built
in computer
which optimizes the rate of hydrogen release into the air intake
manifold.This
is the probable reason that their reported MPG boost of 84% is higher
than what you typically get with water4gas or Run your car on water
which is 35-50%. Hydrorunner comes with a rather
expensive
price tag at $3500
for a gasoline engine or $7000 for a diesel engine.You can
order the system
by visiting
their website at hydrorunner.com/index.php.
Crude
oil and gasoline prices have risen tremendously recently and predicted
to rise even furhter. Gas prices have been predicted to hit $6-8 within
the next 6-24 months
