For our first Meetup it turned out pretty good.  We had approx. 10+ people show.  Green Gas LLC was there, telling us some of their experiments they have worked on and how they started as just enthusiasts like the rest of us.   Also Barrett, who’s been doing various experimenting for years and works with a couple different companies, discussed ideas and theories he was working on seeing what sort of input others had, as well as share what he’s learned.  Between the two, I think a lot of people got a crash course on the various technical aspects of water, temperature, hydrogen production, and more, including myself.

The atmosphere was pretty laid back, as we all talked.  Special thanks goes to Ash, the owner of the Coffee Shop, for letting us meet there and enjoying his facility.

Matt, from HHO Monster, had one of his dry cells and a few other components people could look at and pass around, as well as making available many of the documents posted on the Meetup page in a booklet for those who were interested to take home to read.

I showed my HHO Monster dry cell setup on my Mustang and Matt showed the wet cell in his truck that is an older model of the current system he has on the Web Site.  I missed it, but I understand Green Gas showed a demo they had in one of their vehicles and did the ever popular igniting of the hydrogen bubbles.

Veronica talked a bit about the Kangen water she is associated with and the various benefits the process gives drinking water.  The water is actually considered a medical product for it’s benefits in Japan, where the system was developed and common in hospitals, as well as in Canada.  Because of the laws here in U.S. it can’t be marketed as such, but at the HHO Games where she was also setup, several people I spoke with swore by it.  If you have chance, take a look at the Meetup Group she has organized.

Some other discussion were of the Green City Event coming up in October that Veronica is promoting, their plans of various “green” related companies being there, showing their products, and a “hands on” section where kids (of all ages) can tinker.

Also discussed was the IHHO, an organization that is rapidly growing, whose goal is to weed out the true HHO manufacturers working to develop this technology, from those slapping together a glass and PVC pipe system in the garage and trying to market it with no real knowledge or R&D.  Many of these systems have been the cause of bad press and feedback when they don’t produce as advertised, and MPG actually goes down.  This organization will have some of the top people involved with HHO in it, sharing ideas and passing on actual tests and facts.

Watch for the next meeting announcement, and if you missed it this time, hopefully we’ll see you there.  Find out more about the Meetup Group and join: www.meetup.com/HHO-Hybrids
