Just wondering if anyone has ever used it and what any experiences were?

Looks a good bit of kit. Hope they make it with a longer hose and a 110volt version.

I think if it works and if the price is right more will be out there and then the modifications
like 110v / 230v or even battery like your drill :D 2.5 kW though would need fair sized batteries.

Ive emailed them for details and prices with the intention of using one for training, as an alternative
to the Oxy / Accet - Maxigas jobbies we have, it might be a viable alternative.

Its the same principal used in fuel systems. Had one in my old Berlingo, water is separate into oxygen and hydrogen, flowing into the car intake system, a much better mileage per gallon, more power and cleaner exhaust gas.

Castoline unit is doing the same. Problem is low brazing temp compare to propane\oxygen kits.

I am sure it "not" very cheap either.

That has just priced itself out of being useful!!
