What happens to fuel economy at night when you have 2 headlights, 2 tail lights, fogs, and dash lights drawing extra energy from the alternator? Am I losing 10 mpg just because it's night time? I don't think so.
Not sure how long a car battery would run the HHO generator but if the alternator draw did turn out to be a big deal then you could have a second battery in the trunk that's charged at home dedicated to it. I know, added weight and paying for household electric  |
what do you intend to run this battery off of? if you run it off of nothing, it goes dead very quickly and suddenly takes a LOT of energy to charge back up. if you run it off of the alternator, you're stealing even more power from the motor.
