On Saturday, July 12, 2008 there was an HHO gathering in Van Nuys, California at Woodley Park where several vendors and consumers showed up to talk about hydrogen on demand for their vehicles. A fellow named Carl W. had emailed me about this event on Friday that he planned on attending the next day as he wanted to check it out to see if it was real or not.
I heard back from Carl over the weekend and he has reported that the event was indeed real and helpful and the attached photographs of the event are courtesy of Carl W. (so many thanks Carl!). Carl stated that even several mechanics were on hand to help talk to consumers about the installation process of these HHO kits.
According to Carl, there were about 15 vendors at the event selling their hydrogen generators for cars for between $150 and $600 depending upon the manufacturer. Several HHO kits seemed professionally presented along with some other functional kits that were more for go than show.
The HHO Gathering kicked off a noon and Carl stated a man named Ozzie (known for his Water4Gas HHO eBooks) seem to be behind organizing the event. Refreshments and cold drinks were also to be had at this venue.
In April 2008, I had talked about the 2008 Hydrogen Booster Rally, the first of its kind, coordinated by Larry Jarboe taking place from Maryland to the Florida Keys and back. This was the first HHO event that had showed up on my radar (another rally is planned for the Fall this year).
Now, with the HHO Gathering in Van Nuys, California it looks like the hydrogen on demand industry has gone bicoastal. As word catches on (like it surely will) one can expect more of these workshops, gatherings, rallies and other venues to be popping up nationwide. It’s only a matter of time until the average consumer will take notice of HHO generators as a way to reduce gas mileage and thumb their noses at those selling foreign fossil fuel.
IF anyone wants more information on ITM Power they can look into the ITM Bulletin boards at Investors Hub
To whom it may concern
I am a long term investor in ITM and I sincerely believe
they are the Microsoft of the Hydrogen economy
Their technology is capable of meeting the US DOE
cost and performance targets for 2012 NOW ie achieving unit cost/KW for electrolyzers and fuel cells of 10% of the best performing and lowest cost available today and all this at a higher efficiency They may also be poised to slash the cost of solar cells
and have patented a soloar cell capable of making hydrogen from sunlight at a very high conversion rate
Dont take my word for it read their US patents
just google Donald Highgate patents ITM and up they come
cheers

water car in fuel of electric&gas.But may be use in higher side of power genration system????
Hi. … Questions and Background.
Is there another Hydrogen event planned for this summer?
I want to be part of it.
Background. I am a semi-retired Professor .. With some students we started researching .. currently have web page .. planning to write grants (I am a grant writer), and testing wet-cell installations on my car … soon to do 2nd install.
Goal, safe, economical, practical, plug-and-play, high-performance HHO on demand kits.

Update: Had to leave wet cells due to Thermal Runaway … building dry cells now. The wet cell, if it had a thermal switch or a circuit breaker, might fit nicely on a Motorcycle … So, if it is “off” 30% of the time, while cooling, so what? — Still would have clean exhaust, and engine would run “lean” and well. regards to all.
