How to Run Engines and Cars on Hydrogen and Other Fuels

Reviewer: Chris R.

this is a pretty cool video but don't think that after you've watched it you're going to be able to go out in the garage and convert your car. While they do show you the components of the conversion (which are pretty simple) there is a lot to it. You would also need a pricey tank for the hydrogen. Also one of the things I didn't like about the video was, while the content was really good and informative, the narrator seems to have this chip on his shoulder the whole time. There's a good section explaining why those under the hood hydroboost gizmos don't work, but it was almost difficult to get through the section because of the before mentioned chip on the guys shoulder. Sure, he was an automotive engineer in research, sure he has a lot of experience, but get over it man, just explain it to me in a non-condecending manner. Also in the sections like the one on the under the hood hydroboosts design the video basically consists of you watching him write in a notebook. All in all there's some good information but it wasn't what I was expecting from the title, I was expecting more of a straight forward how-to video, and as I said the guys attitude was a real turn-off for me.

There is a lot of good basic technical information in this video. It details all the math and science of what works and what doesn't. But don't worry about it being college-level boring.... It isn't. The two men who speak talk in every day language and they make a technical subject understandable to the average person with a basic understanding of math and mechanics. The one thing that I didn't like (and was pointed out in another review) is the bad attitude of the narrator. He even makes a very insulting anti-Christian comment at one point, which has no place in a technical training course. That was completely inappropriate.

There are two guys who speak in this video. The older guy who is the Hydrogen and alternative fuel expert, and the narrator who never shows himself on camera. The narrator is the guy with the chip on his shoulder and who made the inappropriate comment. If it weren't for him, this would have been a totally awsome course.

Well so much for that DVD. I have enough to do without listening to a DVD with an attitude.

I'll keep shopping for info but I don't want to even go here!

This is a video that has important information regarding hydrogen production, and in particular, its use on engines. It should have gone into more detail for automotive use, however. I'd like to have seen the actual hook-up on the car.

Bottom line: Video content - good.

Great information and worth watching, but the narrator is annoying and sounds like a jerk. He needs to shut his mouth and let Mr. McAlister talk without being interrupted. It took me forever to get though watching it because I couldn't stand listening to the narrator.

They were great very helpfull. I would recommend them to anyone.

This is a very interesting video. Both of the instructors are well versed in the topics discussed, and they really got me interested in this subject. The one criticism I have is the video is somewhat disjointed and sometimes rambling I would recommend a professional editor for the next project. This video is well worth watching.

It didn't really seem to teach me anything except show what is possible. They seem to really know what they are talking about, but I didn't learn to make a thing. ~ Paul

I enjoyed Mr. Roy McAlister's presentations, but Steven Harris is very BORING, and comes across as an arrogant, boasting, loudmouth, and interrupts Mr. McAlister's presentation too much with his childish comments! Mr. Steven Harris does not do justice to Mr. McAlister as a NARRATOR in my opinion.

Reviewer: Owen L.

Steven Harris is a pompous summers eve.. but the content in the video is superb. Sadly the arrogant attitude of Mr. Harris and the time waster part of the video where he goes through every necessary calculation proving that hho is a scam is extremely boring. He should have presented that info in a PDF or an MP3 for the hardcore HHO nuts. The calculation part of the video was completely unnecessary.

The content was superb but the interjections by Mr. Harris were unacceptable and I kept wishing that he's be quiet and let Roy McAllister talk.

I was also disappointed in the fact that an average financially accessible solution to hydrogen conversion wasn't ever discussed. Further research on my part led to extremely cost prohibitive solutions that the average income person couldn't really afford. The lowest cost for a conversion that I found was around 10 grand and you had to have fleet service to get that price.
