- The "hydrogen gas from water" HHO technology dates back decades to Stanley Meyer and is nothing new to class 8 trucks. You can easily produce hydrogen gas in your garage and I use the principle to remove rust from old motorcycle parts and tools. Problem is, it takes more energy to separate hydrogen from a compound than the hydrogen will generate -- about 1.3 KW to get 1 KW energy. BTW, Newton's laws are still in effect...
- The company website is deliberately vague and short on facts. The mileage claims are exaggerated or spun to confuse folks unfamiliar with big trucks. I can (and have) achieved similar mileage improvements with no modifications at all to my trucks. It has to do with speed, load, terrain, weather, idling, etc. Most any experienced trucker could fool the layman with miraculous mileage gains. Seriously, no legitimate company would foist off figures like that; they would test the truck on a dyno under controlled conditions in an EPA approved faxcility.
- Trucking is incredibly competitive and fuel in our greatest expense ($80K+ per annum per truck)by far. Profit is measured in pennies per mile even with the best companies. Major engine manufacturers employ battalions of engineers to squeeze the tiniest bit of efficiency from every drop of fuel.
- Flawed business model. Anyone with a legit invention yielding perhaps a 10% gain in mileage could approach any manufacturer and cash in bigtime. No need to form a business, target small businessmen (O/Os) or peddle overseas where fuel is dirt cheap. The enormous trucking market is here in the US and with the mega-carriers and their huge fleets.
There are plenty of other reasons that a person should be very skeptical of this stock but I've already bored you enough. Sorry.
If you'd like to generate hydrogen while removing rust from things around the house/garage, please visit this link. It's a snap and works beautifully.

P.S. Can anyone provide the patent #s for the gizmos as well as the name and USDOT number of any fleet using this "technology." A picture of the "fleet" truck would suffice since, by law, the name/number would be prominently displayed on the side of the truck.
