Yeah but will it blend? *pushes button* -BOOOOOoooom- Neighbors: When did kali get that mushroom cloud installed? /sarcasm

Now the military has something to power that exoskeleton with. Now I have something new to pine away my days for, a fuel cell powered power suit!!! Awesomeness achieved!]]>Oct 7th 2008 3:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/Oct 7th 2008 4:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/Oct 7th 2008 9:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/Oct 7th 2008 3:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/Oct 7th 2008 6:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/
Either way, very cool news for fuel cell supporters in general, they're doing good work. ]]>Oct 7th 2008 3:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/Oct 7th 2008 3:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/Oct 7th 2008 4:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/Oct 7th 2008 5:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/07/m-25-portable-fuel-cell-takes-home-1-million-pentagon-prize/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJ4J69EEpu4

I first read about the system in Popular Science. It was one of last years top 20 developments according to Popular Science. According to the Pop. Sci. article the suit was getting near the end of the testing they could perform on a tether. The military's solution was to start this million dollar contest. It has been a while since I read the article, but I seem to recall that the tech they were eyeing for the power solution at that time was a hydrogen fuel-cell from a European manufacturer. That fuel-cell was still undergoing development and testing though.

And if they did get something working, you can bet that Dupont would be willing to pay a lot more than $1 million for it.
