Hydrogen, Tarantola Sons Take Top Honors At Summer Games

July 24, 2009 - Hybridgen's sleek, compact, highly polishes HHO kits and a solar-powered kit desiggned by the sons of Jim Tarantola were the showstoppers at the 2009 Summer HHO Games that ended Sunday, June 19, 2009, in St. Petersburg at the University of South Florida. Also walking away with honors were Richard Keough of MoreCo Energy of Venice, Fla., kit distributors HHO Monster of Lake County, Fla., and EFIE manufacturer Mike Kehrli of Seaside, Ore. The Hybridgen kit was selected not only for its sleek and compact design, HHO Games organizers said, but in recognition of the fact that it is reaching out to the broader market by getting its kits tested on refrigerated trailers and trucks of the giant Sysco food processing company. The Tarantola brothers' solar-powered design, in a bright orange 1979 Chevy pickup, displayed an extremely low power draw from two 15-watt solar panels mounted on the backside of the cab. The power draw was about 150 milliamps at highway speeds - you read that right - and the kit's energy use is determined by a connection to the throttle body, and decreases as speeds rise. Also getting a second look were Mike Connolly's impressively small HHO kit, which measured about 4 inches wide by three inches deep by four inches long - the smallest kit seen since the toy demo at the Fall Games in 2008. The Power Emissions Control unit won honors for Best New Kit Design for Connolly, who came to the Games from Mansfield, Ohio, with it mounted on to a large reservor on a 2009 SUV displayed in the Demonstrator lot.


Yes its true we got high honors at the local games, having a steady spot within the
pioneers in the hydrogen games!

We cant wait for the next HHO Games to further discuss and see examples of
progress in this field of science and technology. It is important to see these
games as a reflection on others, that anyone can have a part in these games
its not so much about competition as much as it is about integrity and community within the area to share and take what others are doing to make a better tomorrow.

Lets remember that as a army of one we stand stronger then individuals by
state, lets stand together at the next hydrogen games and provide the best
for a more fuel efficient future!
