HHO Cell Builds
The HHO Cell Builds Nav depicts Freedom Cell & Freedom II plate stack.
When I learned that water can become fuel, and that even I, can do it at home, I got excited about HHO technology.
John Aarons with Hydrogen Tap was the first place I found some solid information. I did not know of the various research forums at that time.
I made a purchase from John. Man I was excited, I could not wait for it's arrival so, in the meantime, I bought materials to build my own.
The Bazooka
My first build was a container cell. I used 4" ABS sewer pipe for a container. I bought (20) 3" x 12" stainless steel plates grade 304. The pipe was quite tall 36", which I found out later is dangerous (HHO volume space) and yet safe (ABS pipe is strong). Fortunately, I never flashed this cell.
Strengths: Configurable, Strong, Sealed -vs- Open, Measureable Outputs, Shows my ability to Concept, Design & Build, Learned so much!
Weaknesses: The list is long by today's standards, It was a great start into HHO. Main weakness is Unsafe, but so much ahead of a Glass Grenade!
Freedom Cell
My Second build was also a container cell. I used acrylic & epoxy to make the container. That failed, I learned of Weldon solvent.
Strengths: Safe - Flash Vent Spring Tension Lid, Configurable, Small and Sealed for Accurate Lab Output Testing, Significant Testing and Verification Accomplished, Again shows my ability to Concept, Design & Build.
Weaknesses: Nothing significant- great build for a container cell (Voltage Leaks).
Freedom II Cell
My third build was a dry cell. I used 1/2" acrylic end plates, o-ring gaskets, and c-clamps. The o-ring gaskets failed (leakage). Sent the word out - must have compression gaskets.
Strengths: Configurable, Rallied Focus upon Dry Technology, Helped establish Dry Cell Design and Efficiency.
Weaknesses: Failed Build, but we learn- so much from failures!
Note: Later added round Freedom III gaskets for demonstration cell (see photo), never tested outputs.
Freedom III Cell
My fourth build, also a dry cell, was good enough to be considered an alpha candidate for production. I used 1/2" acrylic end plates, off the shelf round gaskets, and external bolting w/ clear vinyl tubing. Much testing and verification done with this cell.
Strengths: Awesome Build, Configurable, Solid Data (5.6 warm MMW, 4n4 config), Further motivated team towards dry cells and EBN Inc.
Weaknesses: Round gaskets reduce active surface area, 1/8" gasket thickness - 1/16" is Standard, Oversized Plate Holes (Voltage Leaks.)
Freedom Max Cell
Turns out to be my final build (Freedom II revisited), total sealed voltage test. I used 1/2" acrylic end plates, special 7" 304 plates, 7" remnant gaskets, and external bolting w/ clear vinyl tubing. Only one test (Special Thanks to D3), but it was one of significance.
Strengths: Maximum Brute Force Electrolysis MMW established (KOH, only +.2 MMW).
Weaknesses: Not designed for production (cost prohibited).
Note: I stopped building cells & researching brute force efficiency gains with this discovery.
Note: I believe further efficiency advances will likely come from pulsing technologies.
