Question:

hydrogen booster?

I am going to make a hydrogen booster for my car. I have read about different ways to generate the hydrogen, e.g., copper, aluminum, sheets, coils, cups. Can someone tell me the best configeration for generating hydrogen? I read that aluminum is cleaner and doesn‘t require regular cleaning like other metals.

Answer:

The whole idea is a useless crock -- a complete waste of time and effort. Making hydrogen from anything takes lots of energy, and the hydrogen itself doesn't add much to the normal fuel.
I wouldn't go with laminate if the basement floods. I would suggest linoleum since it's cheaper. You can find glues that are used specifically for bathrooms or other areas that generally get wet. Hope this helps :)
Hydrogen power is just a bunch of media hype. In reality, it's useless and unpractical, because hydrogen isn't readily available, and it takes a lot of effort to make, and however it's made usually requires more power than what the hydrogen gives back, so all in all, it's very unefficient. Hydrogen can be made by splitting water with electrolysis, but this takes a lot of electricity. You can also make it by reacting acids with metals, but you will need enormous amounts of both to make enough to power an engine, and acids are dangerous too. If fuel expenses are an issue, I believe getting an LPG (liquified petroleum gas - a mixture of propane and butane), or CNG (compressen natural gas - a mixture of methane and ethane) conversion would be a much better and more sensible choice.
