Practical Guige to Free Energy Devices

Please bear in mind that should you modify a vehicle to run on hydrogen, either as an additive or as a
replacement for petrol, you need to clear it with your insurance company before using it on a public road,
otherwise, you will be driving without insurance since any alteration to the vehicle automatically invalidates the
insurance if the insurer is not notified and agrees the change. You may, of course, modify any stationary engine
or any vehicle which you only run on private property. In the USA, the oil companies have influenced the local
courts to such a degree that in some States, it is an offence to “run a vehicle on a non-approved fuel”.
In passing, you may be interested to hear that I have been told that the Prohibition era in America had nothing at
all to do with people drinking alcohol. The reality was that in the early days, Henry Ford was going to have his
Model-T car running fuel-less by using a Nikola Tesla designed magneto system and an electric engine, but he
was pressured into using an internal combustion engine to burn the gasoline which was an unwanted component
of the local oil industry. This caused a problem for people on long journeys as there were very few gasoline filling
stations at that time. To overcome the problem, the early cars were set up so that they could run on either
gasoline or on alcohol produced by some 50,000 farmers scattered around the country. When the oil industry
discovered how profitable it was selling gasoline, they opened many gasoline filling stations. They then wanted to
exclude the farmers and have all of the profits for themselves and so Prohibition was introduced, not to stop
people drinking alcohol (although that was the pretext), but in reality, to shut down the 50,000 alcohol stills which
were their competition. When the stills were gone, then Prohibition was dropped as it had achieved it’s goal of a
vehicle fuel monopoly.
The Electrolyser System of Paul Zigouras
In his document, Moray King draws attention to the HHO cell design of the American, Paul Zigouras who became
very well known in the year 2011 due to his cell design which is perfectly capable of running a 320 horsepower
marine engine. Paul, at age thirty, had a history of rebuilding marine engines and then selling them. He then was
involved in helping a friend who had entered a competition for the car with the highest mpg performance. Paul
found that by adding HHO to the air entering the car engine, that they could get 70 mpg on the flat when driving
carefully. Their target was 100 mpg, and so they were disappointed by being 30 mpg short of their target.
Paul decided to work on the HHO angle to see what could be achieved and enlisted the help of a friend and
sometime freelance employee who was expert in electronics as Paul was not familiar with electronics. Probably
without understanding the underlying causes, they managed to utilise several operating principles – cavitation,
charged water gas clusters, resonance, mechanical vibration and a ‘splitting the positive’ style power supply. The
overall result was spectacular, culminating in a small cell, into which water could literally be hosed and only gas
came out of the other end.
Paul never revealed the exact circuit design and it is reported that he sold the rights to the design for US
$6,000,000. The purchasers then contacted the eBay buyer of the latest version of Paul’s circuit board and paid
$20,000 to buy it back. The eBay buyer was happy with the deal as he had paid just $1,100 for it and so made a
profit of $18,900 on the deal. At this time of writing (2013) some eighteen months have gone by and it seems
quite clear that the present owners of Paul’s circuit design have no intention whatsoever, of sharing or
manufacturing the design and so it has been effectively shelved, never to be seen again. They were not
interested in the cell, but just the electronics board.
However, a number of things are known about the design, probably sufficient to allow a similar design to be
produced. These items are as follows:
Paul made units in two sizes. The smaller version had between 20 and 30 plates each being 2-inches (50 mm)
wide and 8-inches (200 mm) long, material 316L-grade or 318L-grade stainless steel one sixteenth of an inch
thick (1.6 mm), stacked with a gap of just 0.635 mm between them. This small version could blast 2.5 (US)
gallons of water per minute into gas, which is about 17,500 litres of gas per minute. The water was hosed in at
one end, and no water reached the far end, which is quite spectacular performance.
The larger cell had 36 plates 3-inches (75 mm) wide and 10-inches (254 mm) long, also 316L or 318L-grade
stainless steel 1.6 mm thick and with a gap of 0.635 mm between the plates. That size of cell could convert water
to gas at the rate of 5 (US) gallons per minute (35,000 litres of gas per minute)
The techniques used with these cells is nothing at all like any of the various other electrolyser designs discussed
in this chapter. This is because the cell operation is nothing like conventional electrolysis or even like DC pulse
driven water splitting as used in the Stan Meyer “Water Fuel Cell”
Firstly the plates are grit-blasted with 60-grade silicon carbide at an angle of 45 degrees to the face of the plate,
making sharp-edged craters in the surface of the plate. When water is forced through the very narrow gap
