Then Shell buy the firm and it vanishes

its not new technology, thats the annoying thing, split H20 (water) using electricity and burn the hydrogen, release the oxygen into the atmosphere

win/win

What a con. Each unit costs £200 and several are fitted to the engine, after 50,000 miles they need 'recharging' (they don't say how much this is). They reckon it saves 1 litre of fuel per 100km. So if four are fitted you pay £800 to save 700 litres of fuel (about £900) over the 50k miles before they need recharging.

All they do is use electrolysis to turn water into hydrogen which is mixed in with the current fuel, however if you watch the video only 1 small bubble of hydrogen is produced by each unit per second - hardly enough to make any difference. Spend £800 to save 1.8p per mile, a profit of 0.2p per mile.

You need a proper full sized hydrogen fuel cell, gas from water...
