Educate me. How much power does it take to split a water molecule? How much usable power do you get when you recombine the hydrogen with oxygen?
and then think I am the dumb one.
If the dunce cap fits.....
uummm...in the case of the inventor who is using the inexpensive alloy to do the splitting it’s pennies to the gallon. That makes browns gas which runs the engine along with the air intake like any gasoline engine. You honestly don’t know what you are talking about because you haven’t reasearched the latest invetions concerning hydrogen fuel. you have a mind set that has been taught to you and you don’t seem to want to get out of it. That’s fine, but the electric and hydrogen cars are coming. Very cheap and clean cars will be made, setting our economy much more free and giving us total independence from foreign oil. You really should stop thinking you know so much and at least look into the link that I had provided of the alloy method of creating hydrogen.
The same applies to carbon based fuels - once again the conservation of energy.
Of course you also have to factor in efficiency considerations. There are efficiency losses in any process.
