With the increasing prices of oil, search for a water-powered car increases. Look at the Google trends. People are really looking for an alternative energy sources. Of course, if a car can really be powered by water, then, our problem is solved, coz water is everywhere here in the Philippines. (especially in Malabon during rainy days. 
)
One of the most viewed videos today on Youtube is the water-powered cars made by the Japanese. This is it:
Japanese Water-Powered Car
However, do you know that more than 30 years ago, a Filipino by the name of Daniel Dingle invented the same car? Watch his video:
Daniel Dingle’s Water-Powered Car
My question now is where is Daniel Dingle? What happened to his invention? A little googling led me to the Daniel Dingle foundation site, which was set up as “a strategic alliance partnership between Ethos World GmbH Schweiz and Daniel Dingle, the Filipino Inventor, to commercially develop his inventions and to promote their benefits so that everyone in the world can gain from their unique properties.”
So, if this is true, it seems that Mr. Dingle already signed a partnership with a foreign company to commercially develop his inventions. So, are they selling Daniel Dingle’s water powered cars now? I did not see any car for sale on the site, but I see some car kits for sale, which they branded as Ethos HyroGenX. You can find their sales page, complete with prices here.
Now, do they have a branch here in the Philippines? I can’t find one. 
If only I could convert my car to a water-powered car, I would have saved at least Php1000 every week.

DOST is goood for nothing….. di man lang nila sinuportahan ang technolohiyang pinoy… tsk tsk
June 26th, 2008 at 11:59 am
i guess its not DOST, its the big oil corporation.. ano nga naman ang laban ni Mr Dingle sa malalaking oil company.. about DOST not supporting Mr Dingle? well its a capital “C”.. corruption
i remember the movie of Keanu Reeves “Chain Reaction”

sheesh…Sayang naman yung kay Mr. Dingle. Bata pa ako nung una kong narineg ung invention na yan e.
Pero hindi po kaya kalawangin ung makina pag water yung ginamit? Sorry, wala akong alam sa mga koche at makina e.. :-S
June 27th, 2008 at 8:48 am
Yap, old news na ito. Parang noon ko pa nga narinig ang invention na yan.
Iba kasi dito sa atin, medyo kulang ng support ang mga pinoy inventors kaya pumupunta sila sa ibang lugar. Mas may chance pa dun na makilala at mabenta inventions nila.
I’m sure Daniel Dingle is a very rich man now!

Nice on SEOing this keyword….
pero look, water will be used on this cars? my professor in mechanical engineering subject never agreed on Water Fueled Car. Even though he is a mechanical engineer and it would be a benefit to have a water fueled car he really insist on the WATER Cycle…
sabi nya if we used water on cars maiiba daw ung WATER CYCLE… mmmm.. if you will think of it mejo awkward kung iisipin pero may point… water cycle process in natural way if we will change a bit siguro magkakaron ng global changes wahahahahh…
pero the sad news is… we are the first one to invent this thing.. pero kapwa pinoy ang nagpabagsak sa kanya.. kesyo may issue sa water na ginagamit sabi ng nagtest ng project na to kaya declined… pero di nila nakita ung future issue o anu na ngayun ung issue on FUEL.. whahaha MAHAL!!!
sayang if we invested on it maybe some great companies will invest on this project we know that we don’t have the money and the technology to make a bunch of this water fueled car pero we have the patent HAYS pinoy nga naman tapos biglang manghihinayang na sana tinuloy na lang..
June 27th, 2008 at 12:02 pm
magandang keyword yan ah
hehehe… ako sana mag ka car muna.. then water powered car 
June 28th, 2008 at 5:51 am
It’s true.
It’s all Dingle’s idea. It has been proposed to Philippines’ market during Corazon Aquino time, and since Aquino alliances are Cojoancos and Ayalas, who own large shares on gas companies, they rejected the proposal.
Then Dingle, hopeless of being successful in the Philippines, sold his idea to Japan, Germany and US.
*this information has no concrete basis but I strongly believe in it…
Now, I don’t think LTO will let you register water-powered car…

He invented this water-fueled car 1969. All Phil. presidents did not approve and will not support him except Pres. Estrada. Unfortunately, he was forced out of his position in a coup. Can you imagine how this invention will improve the lives of all Filipinos for many generations? It’s unfortunate that we have a greedy government who is so afraid to lose revenues from oil companies. It will also impact the middle east countries or oil-producing countries and will lose the only natural resource where they get their wealth. I hope that they won’t be able to buy weapons or terrorize helpless people when that happens. Eventually, it will happen especially with the rising cost of fuel. It doesn’t matter who will mass produce that car but one day it will happen. Crude oil will become obsolete.

i pity engr. Dingel, for 30 yrs.holding his secret & not wise enough to distribute it publicly against the big 4..unless there’s threat in his life. FYI: Yahoo news recently “One of the inventor of water for fuel Stan Meyer of USA was murdered by big petrol…The late Nikola Tesla have failed to fully realize their dream of HELPING OTHERS, and great inventions got lost. The problem was always secrecy and greed. Now? big petrol cant murder the website, its all over. FUEL CELL, NATURAL GAS, HYDROGEN WATER video demos, etc…. The fuel cell stacks produces electricity …on the other hand catalyst separates hydrogen from water, hydrogen will go to the manifold (carburator) & oxygen water exits out of muffler, no pollution. Its not actually 100% hydrogen fuel, you still need gasoline or crude to start the engine & switch the catalyst gadget to get hydrogen fuel….And Dingel’s invention is outdated.

The principle in life and intention of Daniel Dingle is simple, that is to help the people thru his invention. The situation and what was transpired in the past where political pressure prohibits his invention to be commercially available or be recognized globally is not important anymore and should be treated things of the past (thats the reality of life). Some may say that his invention is outdated or not complete or technically perfect . Invention not only means creating totally a new product or system. Mr Dingle was able to modify the process which also introduced an alternative fuel (even it is not as good as the convetional one). The involved process is still in line with science and it’s amazing he was able to figure it out. Now is the right time for Filipino people to take advantage of it and use his invention locally to ease everyday burden of high cost of fuel in this time of battle of survival. Local leaders should look into it to put pressure to the national level leaders to make available the invention of Mr. Dingle at reasonable cost. But, SAFETY and risk assessment must be the top priority to consider also. We dont have to wait for the introduction of expensive or commercially available cars that runs on the same principle of Mr Dingle’s invention. Mr Dingle deserved National recognition and proper support and compensations .

July 21st, 2008 at 7:58 am
Mr Dingle is a VERY SELFISH PERSON.!! sabi nya gusto sya makatulong sa atin. e di kung walang politico/corporasyon na mag finance ng kanyang invention dahil sabi nila ayaw ng BIG oil CORPORATIONS sana pinamigay nya sa sambayanang pilipino nag secreto ng kanyang invention! nakatulong na sya, nakaganti pa sa mga Dambuhalang OIL corporations..say nyo???? Hindi na tatagal ang buhay mo, matanda ka na Mr. Dingle… gumawa ka na lang ng ULTIMATE sacrifice para makatulong sa lahat ng pinoy..
July 21st, 2008 at 8:01 am
Tingnan natin Mr. Dingle kung hindi magbagsakan ang mga Oil Corporations. Biro mo IKAW ang nagpabagsak sa kanila!!! sikat ka..hanggang sa kabilang buhay!!.

Tsk tsk. Parang si Agapito Flores noon sa Fluorescent Light. Pinakita niya yun kay Pres. Manuel Quezon pero hndi pinansin, ayun binenta rin sa frances. Poor Pinoy inventors.
