Increase Gas Mileage – Olympic Size!

August 17, 2010 by  
Filed under Fuel Economy

How to increase gas mileage is an urgent question for many motorists. Rising oil prices have spelled a permanent end to cheap gas.

Take rising food prices, interest rates and mortgages on top of that and you realize that something must give. Your budget or a break-through. An Olympic-size break-through for some.

This is where the people with the hydrogen gas generators come in. Or HHO kits. Water for gas to let you get more miles out of your tank has become a bonanza on the internet – for the marketers.

Does it work? Yes, definitely.

Are some of those many ebooks or HHO kits any good? Yes, and some not so good. You need to know how to choose well…

Oh! But you don’t know what I’m on about?

OK, you can dramatically increase gas mileage – by up to 50% – by installing a cheap device, called a supplemental hydrogen gas generator. Such a HHO generator uses the electricity from your car’s battery to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen. That’s called electrolysis.

The eloctrolysis process creates a fuel known by various names, but often called Brown’s gas, after it’s inventor Professor Yull Brown. This gas carries much more energy than your car’s regular gasoline does.

What does that mean? Well, for one, you understand by now that you get a greatly increased fuel efficiency, making your gallon of gas go a lot further.

Now get this… This invention by Professor Brown was patented in 1974. It’s not unproven snake oil. Brown’s gas is used for welding, cutting, fusing, even for melting platinum.

I guess human nature is to just keep on using finite oil resources until they run out and get too expensive. So, up pop innovative answers like hho gas when the going gets tougher. Even though we’ve known about it for some 30 years hydrogen electrolysis is eyed anew.

And not just “eyed” either. Already there are thousands of drivers who are already grinning every time they fill up on gas, knowing they hare getting a significant increase in gas mileage.

Benefits of your hydrogen powered car?

Depending on your current local gas prices, the size of your car, the way you drive and so on, you can save something between US $20 and $30 every time you fill up. That’s in 2008. Imagine 2009, 2010…

It’s not all just about financial cost saving. Earth-saving too. The only exhaust gas from HHO gas is water. As your gas goes a lot further with your water fuel car, you cause less greenhouse gas emissions.

As your engine burns fuel so much more efficiently, it burns clear. Much less carbon build-up means a longer life of your engine.

Last, but not least, if you run your car on bio fuel, liquid petroleum gas, natural gas in combination with water fuel you will make even greater savings. Your water powered car will increase gas mileage greatly while emitting even fewer polluting gases.

Water for fuel is real and you can access it. A little knowledge counts for little if you are not going to act on it. Get on the computer now and learn the hows, what-for’s and where to get it. You owe it to yourself and the planet.

Dr Erik Leipoldt has long been concerned about the effects of global warming. In particular he uses his own experience in practical approaches towards alternate energy sources to survive and thrive in our environmentally disabled world. For more on hydrogen generation click here

Crash Tests Show Impact of Size on Safety

August 4, 2010 by  
Filed under Fuel Economy


Three front-to-front crash tests, each involving a microcar or minicar into a midsize model from the same manufacturer, show how extra vehicle size and weight enhance occupant protection in collisions. These Insurance Institute for Highway Safety tests are about the physics of car crashes, which dictate that very small cars generally can’t protect people in crashes as well as bigger, heavier models. “There are good reasons people buy minicars,” says Institute president Adrian Lund. “They’re more affordable, and they use less gas. But the safety trade-offs are clear from our new tests. Equally clear are the implications when it comes to fuel economy. If automakers downsize cars so their fleets use less fuel, occupant safety will be compromised. However, there are ways to serve fuel economy and safety at the same time.”

Oil spill size near upper range of earlier estimates
As BP prepares to seal the well for good, officials say it spewed more than 200 million gallons, by far the worst such disaster off a U.S. coast. BP’s ruptured well in the Gulf of Mexico released more than 200 million gallons of oil before it was capped, government officials said Monday, as the company was poised to stuff the well with dense mud in preparation for a final seal later this month.

Nurtured by Nature Environmentally-Sensitive Diapers, Small/Medium Size 2, 12-18 Pounds

August 2, 2010 by  
Filed under Going Green

  • Totally chlorine-free pulp and uses 20-30% less petroleum-based materials than the leading brands
  • Backsheet and topsheet material made from annually renewable resources
  • 30-40% more sustainable materials than the leading brands
  • Comparable features and performance to national brand premium products
  • Full stretch side panels

Product Description
Nurtured by Nature diapers take an innovative environmental approach while incorporating super premium diaper quality. Nurtured by Nature diapers respect your baby’s skin, perform like a super premium diaper, and offer a competitive price. Like the highest quality premium brands, Nurtured by Nature offers a stretch waist, full-stretch side panels, premium absorbency (with a bio-based absorbent) and a design-printed backsheet. But the environmental impact of Nurtured by Nature diapers is very different from leading national brands. Approximately two-thirds of the materials used in the leading diaper brands are synthetic and are derived from non-renewable resources. The production of these materials consumes valuable petrochemical resources and in some cases creates adverse environmental impacts. Nurtured by Nature Diapers are designed to reduce the environmental footprint created by the production and consumption of disposable diapers. Unlike most diapers, the absorbent padding material in Nurtured by Nature diapers is totally Chlorine-Free. Dioxins and organochlorides are not released into the air or water. Nurtured by Nature diapers also use less synthetic gel material in the absorbent core by blending an innovative bio-based absorbent material with traditional absorbent gel material. Finally, the backsheet and topsheet of Nurtured by Nature diapers contain 50% plant-starch based Ingeo (TM) fiber, an annually renewable resource. (Formerly Natural Choice brand diapers)

This video explains the gearing in the differential axle ratio, transmission ratios, and also covers engine RPMS and the effects RPMS have on fuel economy. All the information in the video I believe to be accurate and can be verified by going to fueleconomy.gov and wikipedia.
