I would seriously want to play with tweaking the output of these cells. I have read that you can not go below 1.24 volts (something to do with the valence of the H2O molecule) but then I read that you can in fact get below this level and still have electrolysis. Also of note, it was implied that once you go below 1.24 volts, you are producing electrolysis in an over unity state? hmmm Maybe we could couple 100 of these together in a large cell and then produce the volume of gas that we require, on demand... no storage needed :)

My whole point of this was to produce the gas on demand, without storage (the dangerous part). If you can have a fast and effecient production of fuel in a small space, it would be a great thing to build into a vehicle. If you could produce the fuel for a small electrical expense, you could recharge the battery directly from the alternator? -It is my dream at least so let me have it :)

Also of note, I tried the 20 guage needle and it was too large. The pressure was not sufficient to sustain a flame on top of the needle. The little flame jumped down inside and ignited the inner gas several times. Thankfully, there is only a tiny bit of gas in there, since the water is up to the tippy top! So the thing kind of pops and jumps a little bit. You can see a cool orange/yellow flash in the rubber tube, that looks like a neon sign mis-firing.

Also, with the large needle, I had the flame go inside of the needle and slowly burn down. What do you know! The same thing that took place with the glass syringe. I let it go this time to see if it would pop when it reached inside the entire way and it did just as I thought. POP! -Sure enough ...I now know that I avoided the possibility of flying glass with that old syringe, by a mere second or less. I am glad I did not find out! -The moral of the story ...never use glass to contain explosives :) -I got lucky... you may not!
