Dear MECC-1. Normally, a catalytic converter in a car exhausting system has a purpose of cleaning the exhaust gases. What purpose it has in your device? More heat from hydrogen?

Let me answer this,

In the automotive application the catalytic converter heats up, running on unburned hydrogen. The catalytic converter
takes awhile to come up to temperature after starting the engine. The catalytic converter then acts as an oven to
burn unburned components of fuel left after the engine incompletely combusts it. The very high internal temperatures
ignites other components such as carbon, probably nitrogen compounds as well. This most likely heats the converter
to even higher temperatures. Most likely it superheats water in the air so that it doesn't condense in the exhaust system,
rusting it out.

In the HHO heater system the catalytic converter simply heats up, in doing so has at least a foot in the LENR process.
If there is overunity in this process then LENR is most likely the cause. Sterling Allan and MECC have both given a lot
of secondary evidence that LENR does seem to be occurring. The fundamental purpose of catalytic burning is that there
is combustion occurring with no open flame and at a temperature below the temperature of a flame, also combustion
is occurring over a wider area of material so there is less concentration in energy produced.

I am somewhat miffed that this information is about systems with probably over twenty years in practice. But yet
we get *no* information from neither the development technicians nor repair technicians that anything interesting
is afoot with it. This is a good example in a nutshell of how suppression results in a lack of progress...

Well, we know now.  Thanks to MECC for his information!

Also to the person building the HHOHHU unit that the catalytic portion can substitute in a superior way for the HHOHHU
copper pipe cluster bundle and this is probably obvious.

My advice? Don't buy plans. Chet is right, we will come out with one open source from here, open source everything.

Just build using parts and run it through the water safety device. Figuring out the nozzle seems to be tough, I have taken apart a lot of lighters so far in order to rig one in the "on" position, what kind of tip is used in a welder kit?

Here is a nice how-to video on making the cell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yItH6S_dUd0

I like the contribution that a computer power supply might be used. Something that gets a 12V, lots of current? The 110V from the wall heated up the water so much it started to melt the peanut butter jar (where I have the cell in).

Looking forward to seeing a house heater come out of this, one that's simply do-able to make.
