I’m disappointed with my pursuit to set up an HHO lab. I like to think outside of the box, and usually I’m pretty creative. I thought I could do it without spending a lot of money. So today I was telling a friend how great my new battery charger is. I even made a video to show the results obtained from battery vs. the big honking battery charger I just got. Look at my mmw!
But I was left with some serious questions about why these results should differ. Ohms law is the law. And my results flew in the face of it. Why? …. I was not able to get it off my mind. Then I thought about how the battery charger was getting its power from an AC source. So I stuck my AC Amp meter on the DC output and found that it measured a current. Oh No! My DC supply is pulsed. This has got to be why the amperage differs from the solid DC battery source. I’m back to square one or back to using my truck alternator for a power supply. Hmmm how about an electric motor to turn a car alternator…

Computer Power Supplies Revisited
I got up this morning, and had a thought about the power supplies I was working with yesterday. Could one of them be weak? Well I grabbed a spare computer and ran it out to the shop. One of the four was bad so that seemed like something to look into. I replaced each of the supplies one at a time, and found this to be exactly what went wrong. After replacing a weak supply, I was pushing 15A at 13.4v.
But I'm still not happy with this configuration. These power supplies protect them selves very well, and I appreciate that but when you are using three of them and have to reset - well it's a pain in the rear.

I love the smell of HHO in the morning.
