A little hocus pocus electrolysis is WORTH stealing? I did
electrolysis in 8th grade!

Been there. Seen that grainy video. Please forgive me for yawning.

Even IF the electrolysis were 100% efficient, it takes 31.6 kWh of
electrical power to evolve a kilogram of hydrogen, which has roughly
the same energy as a US gallon of gasoline. He claims he does this
from batteries and the car's alternator. (It would be far more
efficient to use the batteries to power an electric motor directly!)
Give me an hour with one of his machines and I'll figure out where the
hydrogen is REALLY coming from!
Having written this, with gasoline in my area consistently running
above $1.10 per liter, it's now officially CHEAPER for me to
electrolyze hydrogen from water, using grid power, and burn it in my
vehicle, than to power the same vehicle on gasoline. Go figure!
