Eco Tech: American engineers develop world’s smallest fuel cell
Ecofriend — ... depletes, a fresh stock of vapor enters the chamber and ensures continuous hydrogen generation. Presently the cell generates 0.7 volts and a current of 0.1 milliamps for about 30 hours. The Dark Side: The research is still in its very beginning and the cells can just power micro-machines with their present specifications. More research on the same technology can definitely power up much larger machines for a longer period of time. Via: CleanTechnica
