Exactly what I was thinking! It would fit perfectly in the back of my F250 Super Duty Crew Cab with room to spare.

Electric current seperates hydrogen from oxygen to produce possibly the CLEANEST FUEL that will ever be known to man.

Only downsie is, you need large amounts of electricity to work with. That means you need a combination of water and solar power (to keep it clean).

Nuclear Submarines use electrolysis to produce breathable air from the water surrounding them. That's a good possibility for future water reclimation projects when we leave earth and go to Mars.]]>Jun 13th 2008 2:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/Jun 13th 2008 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/Jun 13th 2008 2:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/Jun 13th 2008 2:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/I was put off future scientific advances by that game...]]>Jun 13th 2008 3:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/ If you had a way to store that much electricity in the car why not just have an electric car, then?

Love the last sentence too.

"Stanley is gone and we continue to buy gasoline and we continue to create global warming at a alarming rate and no one does nothing."

Quoting only part of the last sentence is a classic "out of context" situation.

I patiently have read almost all of these posts and I've come away with something. I am not one to FLAME but If I don't say it...I'm going to EXPLODE...

Most everyone here is either getting OFF TOPIC or is just plain old STUPID. Stay on topic! Don't get distracted, remember what the facts are and if you don't KNOW what they are STUDY until you do. Don't believe what I'm going to tell you, take it into -unbiased- consideration, verify it, THEN Speak...

The problem is ICE's (Internal Combustion Engines) are the wrong transport solution, they pollute and cost too many CENTS per mile to operate...now, the answers to this PROBLEM lie in the following concepts:

1) On-board Hydrogen Extraction from water through Electrolosis, then 2) Feeding the Fuel Cell with Made on Demand Hydrogen to produce electricity from the H-Cell to run an electric car OR (in the case of alternative fuel for your presently owned ICE vehicle):

1) On-board Hydrogen Extraction from water through Electrolosis, retard ignition timing, 2) replace fossil fuel with Hydrogen that is made on-demand. ICE engines will theoretically run fine (with minor adjustments) with Propane, Butane or Hydrogen INSTEAD of the Dinosaur Juice.

Get the concepts INTO YOUR HEAD, don't let yourself get drawn into the TRIVIAL.

THIS MATTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This/THESE technologies EXIST NOW and can also (and should be) utilized to get you OFF THE GRID for essentially FREE POWER for your HOME as well.

Best Wishes, Please Make this Happen!!!

Exactly. Some people just need to endlessly repeat to themselves "water is not a fuel" until perhaps one day it will sink in. The other thing you hear is "this membrane works like a catalyst that breaks down the water." The only problem is that a catalyst provides an alternate lower energy path from a high energy state to a low energy state. No catalyst I've ever heard of takes you the other way, unless you call some form of energy a catalyst.]]>Jun 13th 2008 4:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/13/genepax-shows-off-water-powered-fuel-cell-vehicle/
Although energy is thus consumed, this is a case of hoping that centralized energy production and consumption can be cleaner and more efficient than having to transmit energy over great distances or generate it locally. Another favorable argument is that transferring water and occasionally swapping out a tank of pellets is quicker than a multi-hour battery recharge.]]>Jun 13th 2008 4:54PM
