Naw, it's sort of like physicists turning lead into gold....possible, but it costs more than you get back.

Wow. They'd have good reason to. I'd didn't watch the whole vid, but I wonder what the cost per gallon to operate is.

Well, it costs about $3.30 to electrolysize a quantity of hydrogen with the same total energy as a gallon of gas, assuming 10 cents a kWh.

So, it's about the same, just more convoluted.

can't seem to find anything that definitively states how it works, or why it doesn't work exactly the way they're claiming. i mean from a real scientist, not just people posting comments on forums.
