Hi all!
Just thought I'd post a quick message with an update of the modifications I've made to the set-up of the Hydrogen generator.
I've decided to do away with running the generator off a spare battery I carried in the boot. I'm now running it directly off the car's battery, which is of course being charged by the alternator. This saves me having to re-charge the spare battery from the mains every night!
I've also put in a switch on the dashboard, and an ammeter to monitor the current being drawn. It seems to be working really well so far!
I was going to run it on just 5 amps, but I thought this too wussy, so I calibrated the generator to pull 10 amps. After some "umming and arring", I decided to go to 15 amps! No trouble experienced so far. I hope my alternator and battery are up to the job! I guess I'll find out tomorrow morning when I leave for college.
I topped up my fuel tank so I'm now going to do a second economy trial using the hydrogen generator. I hope I get as good a result as I did the first time!
As soon as I've got some pictures I'll post 'em up.
