Next, I built a Smack's booster exactly the way the instructions said and it lasted the same amount of time and overheated, melting the PVC container at the Pos terminal. I later found out that the booster was not designed for long distance drives without special PWM attached, and I trashed it, mainly because it did not generate near the gas as my first design anyway, and I did not want to pay some hydrogen generator salesman for another electronic part to add to my vehicle (PWM) when I knew I could design a generator for my vehicle that would not overheat.

After much research, I built a generator that works over long distances and does not overheat. It also boosts my fuel mileage from 22 mpg to near 40 mpg. I went back to my original thought that more surface area will make more gas and threw out the idea that I have a 12 volt system. My vehicle runs at 14.25 volts at idle when measuring across the battery terminals. I found that you need between 1.5 and 2 volts per cell to optimally produce gas. I built my booster with 7 cells in order to use up the voltage that is applied to the system while running. As an added safety against overheating, I designed an electrolyte tank that doubled the volume of my booster and connected the tank so that heat would circulate between the tank and the booster. The result was satisfactory and I drive for 1, 2, or more hours nonstop without exess heat. All this with the booster connected to continuous vacuum which is not recommended due to it lowers the boiling point of the exectrolyte.

everything is availabe at your local hardware store. I got mine at Home Depot.
