Re post 42413 by Roachie.
I sent an email to the Australian address on the EFOY website and received a reply to go to www.neco.com.au
I had asked if the Efoy Fuel Cell would stand up to the rigors of 4wding in Australia and they referred me back to the manufacturers.
Fuel Cell $5999
Fuel Cartridge works out at $6 per litre.
Its only for the rich and famous.
Cheers

Hi Willem,
This is very true, "Its only for the rich and famous" at the moment.
Sort of like generators, solar panels and car fridges where in recent years.
They are finding favour with people who build luxury vessels and never ask the price.
Which is great for us, it'll drive the price down.
For me, fuel cells are actually more practical as a
home alternative than solar, once the price and output become competitive.

Grey hair is hereditary, you get it from children. Baldness is caused by watching the Wallabies.

The next few years are going to see some major break throughs in this technology.
(Source - my son doing research in this area.)
Only need to get the hydrogen source environmentally friendly and it will make a big difference.
It will be simpler to operate than some of the fancy computer controlled fuel injection systems we get on engines these days. :o)
Thanks for the info Willem.
