HHO: The Gift That Keeps On Giving
Technical Update 12-2-08:
I was driving my car on the highway yesterday and realized that I never sent out a recap of the Hydrogen USA Tour which we just completed. Nor did I mention to you all some of the wonderful new updates and discoveries that we are implementing.
Okay, so the tour started in LA on 10-27-08. We drove to Bakersfield CA, Fresno, Portland OR, Reno NV, Phoenix NV, Albuquerque NM, Arlington TX, Kenner LA, Tampa FL, Clearwater, then Bradenton FL. We held events in each city along the way and covered a total of 8,000 miles!
The best part of this adventure was meeting thousands of people who have had great success with water as fuel, or hydrogen on demand, seeing all the various iterations of 'hydrogen-from-water' systems, and hearing all the success stories. The highlights?
- We found many new products that will make the consumer market crack wide open. Very soon everyday people will be able to shop and learn and get full service for not only their vehicles, but for their home-heating needs, stationary engines and many other forms of renewable energy.
- Real vehicle computer solutions that work. I tried the AERO Box from Green Gas LLC, headed by Julio Figueroa along with a hydrogen generator, and my 2002 BMW 325i jumped from 30mpg highway to 42mpg highway. And the exhaust is smelling clean and the engine is smooth as glass!
- Clean, healthy 'charged' drinking water. We heard many success stories of people 'charging' their drinking water with HHO. The benefits are not documented much in big books, but are all over the internet. From bringing dying pets back to life to clearing up skin and even losing weight, the benefits of HHO charged water are there to see and have...for free!
- This may be the sappy 'Relationship-type' personality in me, but I really am proud and thankful for all the wonderful people we met and are building relationships with. Pushing a movement forward is far from easy. But it's well worth the pride and sense of gratitude for humanity when you see the difference we are making.I just feel sorry for the non-believers and nay-sayers who just mock and sneer at anything good. They will rot quietly in their secluded lonely lives while the pioneers pave the way for future generations.
Thanks for following us. Check out Water4Gas.com for more updates and we'll post more news soon.....

Final day at HHO Games
Well Folks, after 4 long days of learning, meeting, greeting and networking, we survived the HHO Games in Palmetto, FL! (Yaaaayyyy!)
Today was a magical day culminating 3 days of hard work into a perfect ending. We started with a good breakfast at Cracker Barrel and then headed down to the Manatee Technical Institute in Bradenton.
At 10am we started the "round table" panel with Michael Lombardi, Zero Fossil Fuels, Larry Jarbo and Professor Cliff Ricketts. Prof. Ricketts has been researching and working with hydrogen since the 1970s. In fact, all 4 panel speakers have been involved in alternative energy since the '70s and thus were chosen as the most qualified for Q&A from the audience.
Most of it was good, until it started getting way too technical and honestly, out of our scope. But we learned a lot and I took very good notes.
The best part of the day was the final networking we did with the pros that won the awards. It was like we were family after 4 days. There was definitely some bonding that happened here.
Okay, enough with the sappy stuff......I just miss Chelsea like crazy. Can't wait to get home!
The winners:
Most Innovative HHO System:
Mr. Bruce Wycoff - FireWater Fuel Cells
Best Kit:
James Watkins Most Promising New Kit:Green Hybrid Systems of Chicago, IL
Best EFIE (Electronic Fuel Injection Enhancer):
Julio and Effrain from Green Gas Solutions, with their "Aero Box", which I'll be installing on my BMW when I get home.
Best Installation:
Ralph Grugar from Mileage Seekers HHO
and (drum roll....)
THE GRAND PRIZE WINNER IS.....
JIM TARANTOLA & HIGH PERFORMANCE FUEL CELLS, INC!
Jim and Ozzie and I (with Todd, his installer) all talked at length with Michael Lombardi and Julio from Green Gas Solutions. Our 4 companies will be working together to make some big advancements and with Water4Gas, they will have big backing!
Now I can come home to my beautiful Chelsea and all my friends whom I miss. I want to get to work and make life happen for everyone!
Love,
Ari

Day 3 of HHO Games
The winner of the HHO Games "Best Innovative HHO System" was announced today at 10am at the Manatee County Fairgrounds. Jim Tarantola of High Performance Fuel Cells gave Joe Shae a giant bear hug when he was announced in front of 50 or so vendors. Jim and his crew have come to the Games from several states to show their innovative hydrogen generators and other applications.
Jim's basic cell design is more complex than most of the cells we've seen, yet still easy enough for the layperson to install or at least understand and operate. In fact, it doesn't need to be maintained nearly as much as any system we've seen.
Jim starts with a series of stainless steel plates placed one after the other, back to back. Between each plate is a high-quality gasket to prevent leaking. At both ends (see the pic) are thick, transparent plastic with heavy duty bolts that hold the cell together. Then he wraps the plates with a protective coating to keep them insulated. This "exposed plate" design is great, as it keeps the electrolyte flowing through the cell and back into a reservoir that also acts as a bubbler. The electrolyte is sucked through a water pump, into the cell where it turns into HHO and then pushed with the remaining water into the bubbler. At the top of the bubbler is another hose that vents the HHO into the engine.
Our system was placed in the trunk as there was no space under the hood. Jim also included a cooling fan that keeps the unit under 100 degrees Fahrenheit and a digital temperature gauge. In the cockpit is a pulse width modulator which can be varied to increase or decrease the frequency and thus the output of the cell. We have it currently set on 75% maximum output.
Sound confusing? This is for consumers who want a professional system. Jim and his crew claim an average of 35-50% increases with no modifications to the ECU. Why? Simple. Using the PWM, they can "dial in" the right amount of HHO production and by simply smelling the exhaust, they can find the "perfect" ratio of HHO to fuel. This keeps the HHO production within the limitations and parameters of the ECU and doesn't throw any codes. The result is an efficient, maintenance-free fuel cell that looks nice enough to show to NASA.
I am in no way telling you to get this product, as we haven't even tested it yet. But our job is to help people learn about this stuff. If we like it over the long-haul back to LA, we'll promote Jim's company on our website along with others we see as professionals who meet our qualifications. If you want to see what those qualifications are, check out Water4Gas.com.
During the time that Ozzie was working with Jim on the install, I was attending a seminar hosted by Bill and Tom Lang of Gulf Laboratories. The title of this seminar was, "HHO, the history". It was quite fun and it ended with Joe Shae asking me to tell how Water4Gas become the number 1 water-fuel promoter in the world.
Tomorrow is the last day of the HHO Games. We will be attending one final "round table" panel of pro's at the Manatee Technical Institute for a 6-hour seminar and then wrap up the day with a meeting with High Performance Fuel Cells to talk about expansion and getting them up and running.

Day 2 of HHO Games
Wow, today was quite an experience of unity and camaraderie. Many professionals met for two 3-hour seminars: "HHO and Patent Law" and "Controlling the ECU".
The first seminar was boring but needed. There are a lot of people in this industry now that consider themselves professionals and want to expand into a full-fledged business. It's important to understand patents and how they work.
The second seminar was awesome! I learned a lot of tech stuff that I was not clear on regarding the ECU (Electronic Control Unit, or on-board computers) on cars. We all have a lot of work to do, but there are some major movements forwarding the ideal scene which is complete acceptance of HHO from the ECU.
I purchased a unit that I will test on my BMW when I get back home and see if it works like I think it will. Nevertheless, we had a jam-packed day of learning and of course more teaching too. I talked to many more newcomers--even at the hotel and the local restaurant.
Some more good news: The HHO Games was featured in the local newspaper today! Check out the article here:

Day 1 of HHO Games
Whew, what a day!
We got up at 6am and made it down to the Manatee Fairgrounds by 7:30am. Although we were not the first to arrive, we got a great spot to park our Jetta under a huge outside tent that is permanently set up for trade shows, swap meets, etc. There were over 2300 people there and probably close to 50 vendors. It was like a giant "Mecca" event, with 10 times the energy.
While we were setting up for our presentation, many vendors were already busy demonstrating their hydrogen generators and fuel-saving products to hundreds of visitors.
At 10am Sean Thau was introduced by Joe Shae and did a great job selling the dream of the industry and our mission to lead the water-fuel movement and help other businesses grow. I talked for a few minutes then brought up Ozzie who continued to explain our role.
We spent the afternoon meeting many vendors and talking tech with tons of people. Ozzie and I talked to so many vendors and water-fuel / hydrogen gurus that my head is still spinning! We even saw a seminar from a famous YouTuber who has over 150 videos that show people how hydrogen on demand works!
The best part was gathering identities and seeing all the new tech stuff that we had not seen before. There is still a lot to digest but we found some great things that we are excited to follow up on.
After the show we went out for pizza and met up with about 10 others and talked for hours about the new inventions and the way of the future for our vital industry.

Clearwater, FL
Well folks, sorry for the delay.
Our drive from Kenner, Louisiana to Clearwater was less than exciting. We got the bright idea to drive straight through from New Orleans to C.W. without stopping for rest. Needless to say, we were tired by the time we got here at 11am on Friday. After driving all through the night and getting a speeding ticket for going 33 mph in a school zone by the local Sheriff in some crappy little town in nowhereland, we had a nice late breakfast with Sean Thau, our Marketing Director in Tampa.
Sean is awesome! He put us up in his nice condo which we are very thankful for. He showed us the town and even took Ozzie to the local health food store so we could replenish our malnurished, road-worn bodies.
After a day of working on the website, I was beat and wanted to rest. Sean took me to downtown C.W. and showed me the big church buildings, the beautiful bridges and ocean and then we ate dinner at the Columbian Restaurant, which has great food and scenery.
This morning we got up early and made breakfast, after I went for a nice 4 mile run. We then loaded up the Jetta and took a trip downtown for our Demo. What a beautiful demo it was! Probably the best one yet.
Sean Thau is a great public speaker and host. He put on a wonderful introduction and treated the guests so well, I felt like we were at a trade show! After a couple of hours of presentation, we had lunch at the local deli and wound up staying there until almost 6pm meeting with Bill Lang, Joe Shea and other leaders who will be helping us. Tomorrow we will be working more on the website and preparing for the HHO Games on Tuesday.
This is about to get awesome!!!!!

Louisiana: "Noo-Aw-Lins"
Blues, soul food, southern hospitality, a beautiful skyline: New Orleans! And here I thought the whole city was wiped off the map from Katrina only to find out that it's very much alive and kicking southern butt!
Our drive from Arlington, TX to New Orleans took about 10 hours plus stops. We left TX at 8:00am and arrived just in the nick of time at Jerry LaBella's auto shop for our 7:30pm presentations.
Jerry and Keith had seats set up and an audience waiting, a table with gadgets for folks to look at, and a whole bunch of yummy sandwiches from a local deli for all to eat. Jerry offered us cold beers, which we respectfully declined as we had 13 more hours of driving to do before we are done for the "day".
The laid-back do-it-yourself crowd was very receptive with lots of questions about marketing and of course technical issues. After the presentation and talk about the new Membership, we looked at the cars and hung around for about an hour.
A specail note: my beautiful fiance', Chelsea is back home running the office and working like mad on the website and coordinating our trip with Shannon and Sean. I want to thank them all for being so awesome! Also Crena for running our phones and pushing the crusade and Vanessa for helping our members in this critical time. We have such a great team!
Okay, enough mushy stuff! Chelsea's brother's girlfriend, Misty is from "Noo-Aw-Lins" and invited her cousin, Jerry down. Jerry and I spoke and he'll be getting involved too. I got to learn from Jerry about the craziness that ensued after Katrina and how he defended his house from would-be looters. Sounds like quite an adventure! He wanted to show Ozzie and I the city, but we had to hit the road en route to Clearwater, FL.
We are now driving along a very, very dark highway as I type this. It's after midnight and we're somewhere in Mississippi. Never been here before! Too bad I can't see anything. Oh well, this is business, not pleasure, right? Wrong! I love my "job"...... --Ari

The Texas event
Hey, Y'all!
I'm starting to get a Texas southern drawl.
Today we worked more on our new website and hashed out quite a lot of things that were coming up. At 7:30 pm we had a great event in Grand Prairie, TX. This is a city in the Dallas county area. The event was hosted by James & Peggy Furgeson of GreenEarthHelpPlace.com. James was awesome and really is a great story teller. Being in Texas, they do everything BIGGER. Everyone stayed late and we met lots of good people.
Well, it's late and we got to get up soon to leave to Kenner, Louisiana at 6am. A lot of people are interested in the new program and showing a genuine sinercerity in our mission. We'll use all the help we can get.

Albuquerque, NM
November 3rd, 2008:
While the media is going nuts over the election, we were driving our Jetta across the peaceful deserts of Arizona and New Mexico. The terrain went from prickly-pear-studded red-rock to thick forest to barren desert in only 300 miles.We arrived in Albuquerque, NM at 5pm Mountain Time and checked in to our hotel.
I had been singing this one song in my head the whole week and since we had a couple of hours before the show, I decided to venture out to get the CD. The artist is Jason Mraz. The song: "I'm Yours". I wound up getting two CDs as I liked his music so much.
Anyway, the event went very nicely. We met at a local restaurant called, "Wings & Things", which is owned by Matt--brother of the local Water4Gas manufacturer / installer, Mike. There were over 20 people there and more came as we all mingled.
The good thing about having several cars to look at, is that I don't have to do all the talking! Other Water4Gasians proudly showed their hybrids and told of the results. Maybe it's the fresh desert air, but these New Mexico people are getting great results! One guy doubled his mileage on a 2003 F-250 Turbo Diesel with one large electrolyzer! Another guy doubled his mileage on a 1990 suped-up Mustang GT!
After two hours of talking and networking, Ozzie and I headed back to the hotel. En route, we found a news crew on the side of the road doing a story on......the elections. We waited until they were done then showed them the Jetta. Let's just say that Chris Ramirez from KOAT 7 New Mexico is going to be seeing more of us soon! If anyone in NM wants to show him what hydrogen can do, let me know and we'll set something up.
Well, gotta do more work on the website to prep for the big weekend. I'll post some pics tonight too.
Tomorrow we're off to Arlington, Texas! Yeeee haaw! - Ari

We waited until they were done then showed them the Jetta. Let's just say that Chris Ramirez from KOAT 7 New Mexico is going to be seeing more of us soon! If anyone in NM wants to show him what hydrogen can do, let me know and we'll set something up.
Well, gotta do more work on the website to prep for the big weekend. I'll post some pics tonight too.
Tomorrow we're off to Arlington, Texas! Yeeee haaw! - Ari

No rest for the wicked....
Saturday, November 1st, 2008. 5:45pm
I am sitting at a big, round table in an "adobe palace" in Phoenix, AZ as I type today's blog. Ozzie's friend, who he knew from the old "sell-an-e-book-and-give-away-a-kit" days put us up in his house for the night. Very nice.
Okay, today was interesting. Not exactly as planned, but productive nonetheless. We started the day with some good, strong coffee and then headed down to a large office / warehouse where EDC (Energy Development Center) is engineering many "free energy" device. Of note was a 1975 prototype car that was built by a business partner of Ozzie's friend. This car got 72 miles per gallon AVERAGE on diesel in 1975!
After the tour, we headed down to Indian School Rd to set up for our 1pm event. We had some time to kill, as the radio show guy seems to have vanished into thin air. So we had lunch and then were greeted back at the park by 8-10 early-comers!
The demo was great. We had more people here than at Reno and everyone stayed for hours! We were there until almost 4pm and met many new faces. We got another 25 names for our pre-registration and have a meeting tomorrow with Slav and Mike of EDC to go over more expansion.
That's it for now. I'm tired, but excited! I'm going to work a bit on the website with Ozzie and then maybe take a couple of ours off.
See ya, Ari

The Biggest Little City....
Thursday, Oct. 30 - "The Biggest Little City in the World."
We spent most of today prepping for the event tonight. Catching up on email, working with the web designer, etc.
At 6:30 we arrived to the Atlantis Hotel & Casino in Reno to set up for our event with SierraH2OHybrid. After getting lost in the miriad of slot machines, cigarette smoke and drunken zombies, we made it up to the 2nd floor Grand Ball Room --- a misnomer for a nice meeting room, replete with presentation tables, chairs and chilled water for the guests.
Sarah Grigg of Sierra H2O Hybrid was amazing. She and her husband, Kenny set up the whole event and with the help of our wonderful Dissemination Team, got many people to the venue. Sarah opened up with a warm introduction and Ozzie then came up to speak for few minutes about the direction of the Water-Fuel industry and our role in it. He then brought me (Ari) up to shoot my mouth off for half an hour about the Movement, the Master Affiliate Program, and of course the technical side of Water4Gas.
After the guests signed our pre-registration forms, we all headed back through the Chuck-e-Cheese-like casino to the front of the beautiful building where our hydrogen-hybrid chariots awaited a live demo. There were 4 vehicles in total, including our Jetta, Kenny's Dodge Ram Hemi, Josh's 1992 Camaro and Jerry Young's Kentworth big rig.
The crowds went nuts over these vehicles and having our cars on display directly in front of the hotel entrance was like stepping out of a limousine on Hollywood Blvd in front of the Mann's Chinese Theater at the premier of our new blockbuster movie! Bellboys, valet workers, casino guests and hotel managers all stopped to ask questions and get a glimpse of the magical hybrid vehicles under the flashing casino lights.
We especially liked Jerry Young's big rig. He installed a "6-pack" of electrolyzers to his Kentworth, saving him $300 per week in diesel fuel! He's been on a mission to help other truckers and get this technology out to the world.
All in all, it was a fantastic evening of enlightenment, laughs and new friendships formed.
Friday, Oct. 31 - "The Halloween Hydrogen Haunt"
Today was more of a transit day, as we spent all of it in the car driving from Reno to Phoenix, Arizona. Definitely not as pretty a drive as Oregon, but interesting enough. Of course we had our usual questions at the gas stations and eateries as we drove though Death Valley. It was interesting how many abandoned buildings and ghost-towns are still around on Highway 95.
It's like jumping back in time about 50 years!
As I type, we are about 100 miles away from Phoenix where we'll be meeting up with some long-term friends of Ozzie's and talking biz about the new expansion plans. Tomorrow we have a jam-packed day o' fun when we meet up with Art Mobley and his crew at the local Phoenix radio station to have lunch. I'll fill you in on the details later.
Signing off for tonight! - Ari

Notes from afar....update on the US Tour!
Hello everyone! It's Ari Cohen and Ozzie Freedom writing from "the road".
What an adventure we are on!
We left on Monday morning, slightly behind schedule and met up with "Walking Eagle" and many of his friends in Bakersfield at a local pizza place. After showing the new system to the crowd and talking to passersby, we had pizza and continued on our way to Fresno, CA.
In Fresno, we were welcomed by the crew of CBS, channel 47. Katie, the news reporter and her sidekick cameraman, Matt filmed me (Ari) showing the new system and the "old" 12-pack system in the trunk. It was a great interview and the team at CBS is excited to see others with this technology. They want to convert their whole fleet! We left with the camera filming our drive off into the sunset...
After what seemed like a full day of driving, we were exhausted. We found shelter in a small town in northern CA and rested for a few hours before making our way to Portland, Oregon. Portland, by the way, is my home town! We arrived in Oregon City, OR at 6:30pm Tuesday--just enough time to print off a copy of our e-books and some fliers.
After meeting up with Rich Preston, Rob Juliano and about 75 others, we had a great event at the local Milwaukee High School. The questions flew at me like a barrage of arrows, but I used my Water-Ninja skills to help everyone there gain a deeper understanding into our mission.At the end of that event, almost the entire crowd stayed until 11pm to ask more questions, see the now-famous Jetta with its dual-hydro systems and we had a blast. The locals will definitely be starting up as members and promoting this technology to the masses of the great northwest!
Wednesday: This was fun....after having lunch with my long-time-friend, Clint at a local Baja Fresh, we jumped in the Jetta and drove straight through to Reno, Nevada! Whew...what a beautiful drive. I only wish you guys could have been there. The air was so fresh and cool and the lakes, trees and mountains reminded me of my youth.After many hours of driving into the night, we arrived in Reno, NV, "The Biggest Little City in The World". Not....quite....beautiful Oregon, but busy nonetheless. We've basically spent the day working with our programmer on the new website, handling admin and setting up for tonight's event with SierraH20.
We'll write again tomorrow after the big even at the Atlantis Hotel and Casino (no gambling, please!).
Signing off for the day: Ari Cohen

Water4Gas Road Trip - US Tour!
Hey all you Water4Gas Crusaders!
BIG NEWS! Water4Gas is coming to you!
Meet Ozzie Freedom, Chief Experimenter and Founder and Ari Cohen, Technical Director and National Spokesman for Water4Gas, as they set out on a Cross Country Road Trip in their now-famous Water4Gas hybrid VW diesel Jetta, now outfitted with the sleek new design sure to turn heads and get people talking!
The objective?
To spread the word across the US and the globe that hydrogen-on-demand technology is out there and that it WORKS! This industry needs to show the world what HOD can do for the individual, the economy and the environment.
To do this, Water4Gas will be traveling from Los Angeles, CA to Bradenton, FL, visiting many Meccas (HOD demonstration events) along the way, gathering press and exposure for hydrogen-on-demand industry and the Water4Gas Movement.
We as an industry have got to join together now. We are a sleeping giant. There is power in numbers and the roar of the crowd can't be silenced. It is now time to wake up and make ourselves heard!
We will have live press at each stop along the way. The more people in attendance at these Meccas, the greater the impact. Supporting these events in your city will lend credibility to your business and help it to grow immensely.
On Nov. 11th at the HHO Games in Florida, we will launch a massive program for worldwide expansion by coordinating the efforts of the entire industry, thrusting this industry into the mainstream limelight, making it easy for you to talk to everyone about what hydrogen-on-demand can do!
WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?
If you or any of your friends and family members are near any of the tour stops on the road:
GET TO THOSE MECCAS!
