The Fuel Cell Power Pack That Fits in Your Hand

[necronic]

This is total fail. First off the size is way too big. Second Fuel Cell technology is no cleaner than electricity, in fact it's actually less clean as you have to package it all.

Then of course there is the laughable 15 watt-hrs, wow. Amazing. Thing of the future.

Still though.....it is good to see someone finally commercialize a hydrogen fuel cell. Even if it is a piece of crap.

Certainly hope they use renewable resources to create the cells so it is at least somewhat green. Also, do the used-up cells go in the trash or do they have a recycling program? It seems a bit dumb to announce a price-drop in advance, considering they (or their investors) are probably relying on early sales to decide if mass-production is justified. To the person who said to spend $20 on a car charger, if you look in the right places you can get these for less than $5. Retail markup on those things is insane.

The 1st version of any product is always going to be costly. Give them a year or two and some competition and these prices will drop like a rock.
