Carbide Cannon 01
This video was filmed on ballistics day after school was out. Ballistics day is a break from the normal routine for my seniors in physics and features entertaining stories from my father. This video shows my father's carbide cannon at work. No projectiles are being fired form this cannon and proper safety precautions have been taken. The sound quality does no justice to the retort of the cannon.

HHO Gas Generator - Hydrogen and Oxygen Gas running on a Chevrolet HHR
To everyone watching this video regarding the vacuum valve sensor. The vacuum valve sensor must not get any water inside where the diaphragm is operating or it will keep it in the on position. The diaphragm is a very sensitive rubber piece and water between the case and the diaphragm will keep it in a on position. It is recommended to put it in a enclosed container watertight. I found this out when I had the device setting on the outside of the car testing it and I decided to wash the inside of the engine area with the car in the off position and seen it working still. This vacuum valve was designed for a furnace in a dry environment and I recommend for everyone using one keep it dry. Regarding the furnace vacuum diaphragm after a period of running the furnace vacuum diaphragm it is such a sensitive unit that a hole developed in the diaphragm causing a vacuum leak. This diaphragm on the furnace vacuum valve is a very thin film around the diaphragm plate inside. I found a company that manufactures vacuum switches designed for automobiles that should arrive at my door on November 12, 2008. When the automobile is on idle this is where the vacuum is at its highest point and if the diaphragm can not handle the intense vacuum it will develop a whole in the diaphragm membrane. I received my O2 sensor box and using it by it's self on my automobile I have improved my gas mileage from 30-32 Highway to 36-39 Highway until the old furnace diaphragm got a hole in it and then I seen a reduction. I will being doing another test when the new vacuum switch that is designed for the automobile arrived and I would do another O2 sensor box road test. The O2 sensor box controls the manifold O2 sensor and the catalytic converter O2 sensor on the exhaust system. After running a test on the O2 sensor box and showing it on video. I will be adding the hydrogen & oxygen generator back onto the car and showing them running together with additional improvements to the generator because of the winner season arriving in Michigan. Beware of other individuals selling hydrogen oxygen machines without safety being a number one issue. As you see in my experimental videos, I keep speaking about safety over and over because it is very important to everyone dealing with HHO gas. HHO gas is extremely explosive and if a Manufacturer cannot show you a video demonstrating their safeties beware of what you buy. This video you are watching shows my complete system on the vehicle. Before it was put on the car all testing was done off the car assuring you that the safeties do work as I state. Watch the other videos that are posted close to the date of posting of this video for all the tests that were done. Nothing is 100% but it is better than nothing.
PVC Carbide Cannon Second Try
This is my second firing of my pvc carbide cannon.
Damage Inc fireing a homemade CANON at a PC-monitor
Made our own little canon, useing homemade ammo and the PC-monitor take a hell of a beating! Kind enough to cremate it in the end, with a "homemade" flamethrower.
Calcium Carbide goes bang... Carbid Melkbus
Some of the folks attending the party didn't think calcium carbid would bang this hard :) So much fun with some carbid and an old steel milkdrum using a triple layered paper dogfood bag tied off with rope as a lit... steel lits cause fatalities!
Firing a Bangsite Cannon

Carbide Cannon 02
This video was filmed on ballistics day after school was out. Ballistics day is a break from the normal routine for my seniors in physics and features entertaining stories from my father. This video shows my father's carbide cannon at work, looking straight down the barrel. The camera is positioned aroudn three feet away and it is jostled by the blast of expanding gas. No projectiles are being fired form this cannon [although an unfortunate bug did crawl down the barrel] and proper safety precautions have been taken. The sound quality does no justice to the retort of the cannon.
Big Bang Carbide Cannon with Piezo Igniter
We finally got some calcium carbide for our "Big Bang" brand carbide cannon, but it wasn't "Bangsite" from the Conestoga Company. We crushed it up to make a powder and used the piezoelectric igniter from a previous video to fire the cannon. Shooting a projectile was kind of disapointing, and the bangs were not as loud as I remembered them. Might need to change the amount or quality of the carbide. It was still fun shooting! -Electroman49
