How's the current current output of the fuel cells? Is it even usable to power 1/8 or even 1/10 scale vehicles? At race-like speeds? I saw the video of the fuel cell touring car a while back, but it had a 50 watt motor or something like that. I'd see them originally designed to power the chargers of LiPo batteries. Imagine a charger you could literally take anywhere. Away from all 120V AND 12V sources. All you need to bring is some moonshine!

It doesn't talk about amp delivery but i would say it would be fairly low as the tech is only talking about using it in slow drain devices. For a charger you could take anywhere I am sure a couple of good solar panels could produce enough power to run your charger.
