you are so right *bows down to almighty science that know all* NOT! look, this is a step in the right direction, just because you do not know a different way don't knock this one. Besides if it wasn't the least bit lucrative do you REALLY think that Honda would produce them? so your whole theory about using more energy that you gain is out. do you proofread what you post before you post it? I admit that it is not water powered, you got me, I got a little carried away there, only bi-product is water is what I meant to say. FYI I built a car that runs on water, and uses an ICE, via a very particular process that I am currently awaiting a provisional patent on. The secret? over-unity HA! you wish. no the secret is an already existing "process" that is "present" and calculating the most efficient power/frequency in the circuit while calculating the water as part of the circuit. Can you say semiconductor? This works with all forms of water, recycled, hot, cold, dirty, clean, and even...... yes, distilled "interestingly enough it is an excellent insulator unless MOTIVATED properly" Thank you Stan Meyer and Daniel Dingle for excellent Ideas. Now for the hitch, a similar technology is being used by the defense department and is currently in use in the Star Wars program,and has been since the 70's thanks again Stan Meyer, and yes, Daniel Dingle. Electricity from a fuel cell? but think about it, if it goes one way, why wouldn't it go the other, like a peltier junction, add electrical energy and it gets hot and cold, add hot and cold and electrical energy is produced, BIG HINT! HINT HINT!!! depends on what side of E=MC2 you swap around with algebraically, you know mass, energy, and the speed of light? guy named Einstein? he's not that important. light is substitutable for electrical potential for all intents and purposes in this case. I produce hydrogen and oxygen on demand, separate them with an electromagnetic field "they are charged particles" and direct them into the engine, this is produced on demand, and stops production when the engine stops, it can be used on any size engine, to produce as much "fuel" as necessary. This system also has other uses, such as water purification, heating and cooling, cooking, welding, electrical power generation. If you want to know how it works, or want to see a demo, suck it. I have already decided that this technology is not suitable for the general public, and I have my own reasons for doing so. This is not a joke, scam, or "free" energy. Now back on the subject at hand. I admit that this technology is not very feasible right now, however, with that said there are a lot of unknowns, how is the hydrogen stored? is it safe? Honda surely wouldn't sell something that is unsafe would they? I have some ideas on this but I'll keep my mouth shut for now. A hydrogen station is not available everywhere in Cali, what is the cost effectiveness of utilizing an at home fill device? vs lets say current EV chargers. I say lets stop bashing each other and this budding new technology and give it some support this is probably one of the best moves to actually "helping the environment" that we can make. I personally would like to know a lot more about it so let's not speculate shall we? this could end up going the way of the dinosaur and not making it's round again until our grandkids are born "much like the early EV's of yesteryear" No offense intended, just check yourself
