Self-contained electrolytic hydrogen generator/compressor that plugs into a standard home electrical outlet. Converts tap water into hydrogen and oxygen, releases oxygen to the atmosphere, compresses hydrogen and fills portable/transportable hydrogen container modules for use in hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. Probably not as efficient as a pure electric vehicle, but it would make us independant of multinational energy (oil, gas, coal) companies (who did you suppose was going to provide hydrogen for all those proposed hydrogen-powered future vehicles?)-- whlanteigne, Sep 30 2006 A machine that consumes energy to convert energy into a different format does not make us independent of people who sell us the energy.-- jutta, Sep 30 2006 You have also described an "Home Bomb Kit" Connect that portable container loosely enough and your house blows up.-- Galbinus_Caeli, Oct 01 2006 random, halfbakery
