Default 300 watts and only 1.5 knots ~ A Canada revolution

Copied from th discussion...

But sounds like a good starting point.

To get right to the point, I believe the Kanzius effect is caused by the
polarization of the hydrogen molecules in the water. This polarization
causes the two atoms of hydrogen to lose their 105 degree orientation to
each other and de-stabilize the water molecule.

The unstable water molecule comes apart easily then, combining hydrogen
to hydrogen and oxygen to oxygen in a magnetic bond.

Because the water molecules’ special property to hold sodium is lost,
some sodium atoms must also be released to react violently with the
water still present.

This ignites hydrogen which recombines with the oxygen to keep the wick
from being consumed. The unusual properties of the HHO gas, catalyzes
the whole process to a very high efficiency.
