>Kenneth,
>You must have heard of it and would refer you to two articles in Nexus No
5 volume 5 August September 1998 and further with a further update October
November issue.
>I did construct version 3 and tried it most primitively on a 1960' Rover V
8 which is all aluminium. Also the charge, if you can call it that must be
connected on a blind piece of aluminium on the manifold which is not easy
to do.
>However much to our surprise it ran the engine at full tilt but was not
tried on the road so can not tell you what the power output was. I
accidentally shorted the unit and it died.
>I took it home and put it on charge where after one week on rainwater, the
water turned to a brown soup which I have not analysed but will do so in
the future. Also the top of the unit is not very well manufactured and most
probably will have to rework it.
>The funny part is that the hydrogen produced is minimal and the engine
timing had to be retarded 86 degrees to make it hum.
>This said to me that nitrogen is involved because it implodes when the
spark comes on and explodes when it comes to the top without a spark. So my
theory is that the charge through the aluminium puts antispin on the
nitrogen which gets reversed on ignition to act as nitro glycerine which
also implodes before it explodes. (this from an explosives expert.)
>I would also recommed you to have a look at Bruce Cathie's harmonic
equations as there are some definite effects when using apparatus of his
suggested exact dimensions like heating a house without heat etc.
>When you read through his ideas you will see that the Joe phenomenon ties
in with it.
>
>I must go as I have an engine to remove from some jap crap which is not
supposed to be repaired. (A mechanic's nightmare)
>Hope to hear from you sometime again.
