I was recently reading the same artilcles and wondering the same thing. I'd
like to see what he's been able to do since then. I think Wiseman put a book
out after these experiments that showed plans for a larger unit. It all seems
to run off AC, so I don't know how easy it would be to apply to a car. It would
be TOO cool to pull into a gas station and fill up with water. The Rhode's
(Brown's) gas method and Stanley Meyer method sound very promising. Standard
electrolysis seems too much like you are trying to "muscle" the hydrogen and
oxygen apart. Rhode's and Meyer's seem to use more finesse.

One thing I've noticed is that only DC is used. Why is this? Does the negative
side of an AC sine wave put the molecules back together? Might be able to play
with resonance by adjusting the frequency of the sine wave. Of course you could
probably do it with pulsed DC also.

If I were any better at electronics I would try the following just to see what
happened. I've heard of Keely's water frequencies of 610Hz, 620Hz, and 43kHz.
I'd get a 3 or 4 pole alternator. Attach an electric motor to it so that I
could generate a sine wave at Keely's frequencies by varying the speed of the
motor. The rectifier in the watgas file would turn the signal into DC pulses at
a fixed frequency. It would be interesting to find if the Keely frequencies
would allow electrolysis to happen at low amperage/voltage levels. Let the
resonant frequencies do the work for you. If resonant frequencies can destroy
bridges, water should be a cakewalk. If there is a more efficient frequency for
electrolysis of water, then you could vary the voltage/amperage while leaving
the Hz alone and generate whatever amount you wanted more efficiently than
standard electrolysis allows. Just a thought.

Anyone heard from Mike Randall?
