Terrance Said:

Is there a device on the market powered by hydrogen......?

We Answered:

Yep. You want "hydrogen fuel cells". They take hydrogen and oxygen and combine them into water, releasing electrical current in the process.
They're very expensive, though.

Here's a website that seems to be selling them. Be careful, though, i can't guarentee that they're the real thing.

Here's some fuel cell related websites:

You could also burn hydrogen to power what's called a "stirling engine" This would probably be even more expensive, and less efficient, than the fuel cell though.

Deborah Said:

Why can't we switch to hydrogen???

We Answered:

Several reasons.

1) Where to get the hydrogen.
2) No hydrogen transportation and storate infrastructure.
3) Fuel cells use platinum and thus are extremely expensive.

See the link below for further details.

Elizabeth Said:

Do oil companies want to keep people from producing their own hydrogen at home?

We Answered:

Oil Companies will do ANYTHING to secure their profits. One of my relatives actually drives a card that uses WATER as fuel. It's not very fast but it WORKS.

I wonder when Big Oil will assassinate him.

Discuss It!
