Anyone playing with 500-1000watt fuel cells yet? Propane? 48v?

A physicist I respect calls them fool cells. Given the current requirements that make it difficult to have much Lithium in my garage I can not imagine trying to store hydrogen in my garage.

Bummer, seemed like a good small generator alternative.... I was thinking plumbing it in my big outdoor propane tank, so no hydrogen storage.

From what I have heard there are small package units that can be installed outside the home and act just like a generator. I believe our old Governor had one at his home a few years ago.

If Bloom energy is going through so many issues, its doubtful a home system would have a chance.
