Consumers nationwide continue to be inundated with the rising costs of fuel prices and many are starting to feel the pinch. As the cost of a gallon of gasoline rose for the 20th straight day to nearly $4 dollars per gallon, many Memorial Day holiday travelers are being forced to stay off the road.

The U.S. Federal Highway Administration estimates that Americans drove 4.3% fewer miles on public roads in March. The change - the first March decline since 1979 - continues an overall drop in driving that began last November, the agency said.

According to AAA spokesman Mike Pina, for the first time since 2002, Americans said they were planning to drive less over the Memorial Day weekend than they did the year before. "Most people are going to travel closer to home this year, and they're going to take fewer trips,"

The number of Americans traveling 50 or more miles from home this holiday weekend was expected to slip by 37.87 million, the motorist group forecast recently.

With no end in sight to record high oil and gas prices and a growing consumer demand for smaller, more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles, Limelight Systems LLC was formed to meet the demand for a product that would increase a vehicles fuel mileage and help cut down on polluting emissions.

The company’s products are based on technology over 100 years old – the electrolysis of water into hydrogen and oxygen by using DC current. Todd Stevens, company general manager stated “Many people dismiss the idea that adding supplemental hydrogen into your car’s engine will actually increase fuel efficiency and decrease emissions but I can tell you that real-world testing has shown average improvements in overall MPG by some 35 percent or more.”

Stevens adds “The hydrogen initiative proposed by President Bush is a great start but the infrastructure needed to refuel a hydrogen car is still many years away. There are less than a handful of hydrogen stations in the country right now and car manufacturers are still in the prototype stages. What are you supposed to do with your existing vehicle until the initiative becomes a reality?”

Limelight Systems has developed an add-on unit designed to generate hydrogen and oxygen gasses which are then fed into your vehicles engine as they are produced. These gasses supplement the gasoline or diesel fuel mixture and cause a complete and thorough combustion inside the engine.

Says Stevens, “Our design is very safe. There is no storage of compressed or combustible gasses as in other designs. With a retail price of less than $500 USD, the supplemental hydrogen on demand system is a great way for consumers to begin saving on fuel costs and doing their part to help reduce greenhouse gasses.”
