I am getting 500mL in 30-33sec at 13.5 volts and 14 amps. This is with my Tero made from dual switch plates. For less than $40
Starts at 8amps cold and goes to 14 amps after about an hour.

Will calculate it for you.

Is 4.96 MMW good?

Not just good; excellent!

I have never made a video But I may try tomo.

Is a higher mmw good or bad?

The higher the mmw, the better. It's very hard to get up to 6 mmw, i haven't seen it done yet.

Efficiency is good but try doing it and maintain a low temperature...

Mine is 4.89 MMW right now on the Jetta. Temp runs about 130F.

im at 4.48 mmw and it runs 150 F

AHHHHH HEAT!!!!! I am learning something now. It gets kinda warm but I have no idea how hot. LOL guess I need to find a way to see.

This is my first post on the forum. Sorry to post on such an old thread, and to be honest I am reluctant to post this because I am wondering if anybody will believe me considering the normal MMW calculations listed above. I just built my second HHO cell. This time I chose to build a 21 plate dry cell with +nnnn-nnnn+nnnn-nnnn+ configuration, with the option to change this around. The gaskets are spaced at .04. I am using 2 tbl spoons of sodium hydroxide to a gallon of water and a battery charger is my power source with no PWM. I do not have a way to measure the heat but my cell feels only warm to the touch so heat does not appear to be an issue after an hour of use. The natural plates only have 2 volts per plate. The way I measured the liter is through the displacement means is see everyone else doing. I am producing the following.

2 LPM
11.2 volts
28 amps

I fiured my MMW from this website
http://www.hho-generator.de/en/hho-mmw-calculator.htm

This is telling me my MMW is 6.377

Can this really be true, I am wondering if the battery charger is a good power supply and the built in amp meter accurate?

How many hours in a row have you run your reactor? What temperature does it run at after 3 hours of running? When you measure your gas output can you see the gas coming out of the pipe or is it invisible? This will help tell us if your MMW is correct or not.

It ran for about three hours on the 10 amp setting which allows the cell to run at 15 amps. The battery charger has a 30 amp / 50 amp boost that I would turn it to for the good production but the charger is not to be used at that setting for continuous use so it over heats the charger within 30 minutes and throws the thermal switch.

I do have a strong steady flow of visible gas coming form the reservoir. I am beginning to think from your questions that I am going to need to get the car battery and hook the charger to that and then hook the cell to the terminals from the battery so to can draw the steady amps needed and then the charger replacing what is being used on the battery. Will a battery last that long allowing me to do my test for 3 hours without the charger... I wonder?

much thanks
