One of the things that you need to be careful about when jumping car batteries is an explosion. Why? Hydrogen is produced in the battery. If this is a problem in current batteries, it does not seem impossible that hydrogen could be produced in this battery/generator. How much and how fast is another matter.

With a mineral water brine, hydrogen might be released by either by a current passing between the plates resulting in electrolysis, or something in the brine or on the plates that acts as a chemical catalyst that allows electrolysis at a lower self produced current, or something that is not electrolysis at all, but instead some chemical uncoupling of the H-O bonds.

I can't say if this thing is legitimate. It would be nice hear some independent chemists research this find out.

If this really did work, it sounds like he should have avoided energy companies in trying to market his product. He should have gone to companies that produce specialty metals, like Alcoa, whose product would be used in the manufacture of the generator.

Take it straight to Honda. Do you think Honda could increase its market share with a car than ran on water?
