GreenCell Technologies http://greencelltek.com/ are a Canadian HHO, run-your-car-on-water, hydrogen-on-demand scam.
This is a very old “technology”, it has been kicking about for decades, there is no known plausible method by which it could work and no one has ever shown it to work. What is more, every time this ”technology” has been subjected to proper scientific tests it has been shown to reduce engine efficiency and increase fuel consumption.

The Turbo Fuel Cell is a scam, it cannot possibly work, is a carbon copy of the HHO run-your-car-on-water-scam which has been kicking about for decades, it is scientific nonsense and cannot possibly work, the tests that they claim to have performed are either lies or performed by some very incompetent people.

The UN’s Energy Globe Award for 2010 in the catorgy for “Air” went to the Epoch Energy Technology Corp. for developing a “dual fuel system for buses and trucks” – this dual fuel system is a carbon copy of the HHO run-your-car-on-water-scam which has been kicking about for decades, it is scientific nonsense and cannot possibly work.

“University Challenged”, a BBC documentary on Oil Drum Limited, their “Fuel Saver” and the University Of Kent at Canterbury’s involvement in endorsing this nonsense pseudo-scientific product / technology which blatantly cannot work.

The Guardian Eco Store (as in The Guardian newspaper in the UK) are selling scams. I have told them, of course, but they don’t respond or remove the items from their store… so I’m talking about it here (like that will help…)
Items in their store which are an obvious scams include Ecozone’s Eco Balls, and Dryer Balls and Magno Balls.
I also note you sell the full range of Zielonka stainless steel “small killers”, these types of magic have actually been shown to be nonsense, so why do The Guardian sell them?
One can “e-view” (review) products on the Guardian Store but my comments never make it past moderation… The Guardian clearly sensor bad reviews…

Gordon Loughton of 24 Freshfield Bank, Forest Row in London has a business (and another here)selling a miracle fuel saving product which he says can dramatically reduce your engine’s fuel consumption and improve its emissions using… by up to 30% apparently.
Nonsense!

The following companies all sell [update: most of them now don't exist] The Jubycell [AKA the de Verde Pegasus HOD Cell], it is yet another miracle HHO MPG-increasing, emissions-reducing scam which cannot possibly work.
Inventor
John Hickman of 49 Elm Road, Brixham (Devon, UK) claims to be the “inventor” and has set up a company to sell it and courses on how to install it.
However this “technology” has in fact been about for decades, John has not invented anything here; it was a scam back then and it still is today, no one has any evidence that this “technology” works because they cannot have, because it cannot work, it is pseudo scientific gobbledygook.
This story is a tired ruse that I have seen hundreds of times before, it is so depressing, Con man sets up HHO business and calls himself the “inventor”, lures innocent folks in with the promise of riches beyond their dreams, extracts money from them in the form of kits and courses and shares in the company… sooner or later they realise they have been scammed or the technology does not work and they either start asking for their money back (which they never get) or they refuse to accept the overwhelming evidence and become “true believers” themselves, they stick in their heels and repeat the scam on more victims – the point at which mere foolishness becomes fraud is a grey area.
Scam
You can read an exhaustive article about HHO, Hydroxy, hydrogen-hybrids and why they are a scam elsewhere on my blog.
