Sorry about that. It is top heavy with you tube videos but it works for
me...

Basically, there are a few ways to get hydrogen from water and use it to
power a motor in various ways. One way is fuel cells another way is
burning the hydrogen directly. That is what the blog is keeping track
of.

Recently there have been some significant advances in knowledge
regarding an electrical circuit that can be used to split water
molecules instantly and explode the hydrogen at the same time with the
power generated in the explosion being used to charge a piston and
essentially run an engine. The by product is of course water.

You can check this forum for more details:

That's where a lot of the action is taking place...

Cheers.
