Coleman To Sell Portable Fuel Cell Generator

HobbySpacer writes " Popular Science reports that Coleman Powermate will soon start selling a small portable fuel cell power supply. The AirGen Fuel Cell Generator provides 1.2kW for up to 10 hours on a bottle of pure hydrogen. Interestingly, the company had to set up its own distribution system to insure it could deliver a refill anyplace in the US within 2 days. The unit, built by Ballard, goes for a pricey $8k but perhaps worth it if an indoor emergency backup is needed. Fuel cells can also be found for sale at the Fuel Cell Store and Greenvolt. Perhaps the hydrogen economy is closer than most people thought."

Re:Wow, two dupes on the front page...

I don't mind the duplicates as much as you. Considering that story was posted in December, no new, interesting comments have likely been made in a while. With a dupe, even if it's an accident, we tend to get more interesting comments from others who hadn't heard it the first time around. This time, someone submitted a link to a picture of it that I hadn't seen the time before, and others have said some interesting things.

Even if it is an error, it's an error that harms no one and benefits many.

To make a long story short: XP and USB doesn't get along for me.

Tried to move the XP partition to the end, and then install '98 [don't worry, I use linux on my other PC... my GF won't give up RA2, and this machine has software based hardware]

I had the PM 7.0 'rescue' disks; but because of the software that I used to format the drive [about 1.5 yrs ago] I couldn't use them... some crap that came with my HD. EZ-bios or some sort of thing.

I since reformatted loosing so much. But I gained disk space! lol

Don't worry though, most of my mp3's are backed up on CD [about 40-50 CDs], as well as most things. The thing that really gets me is my Webshots stuff. I loved that program and had so much 'custom' pictures on it. I need to hunt down that lego porn...

ok, not so short.
