Summanus...Your are right, not time yet. Unless you have a waste source for hydrogen the dollars and cents don't add up. Early adopters will for
experiment and deep pockets only. With what I know is happening now I still say 3-7 years.

I am happy with my solar system and have been for 8 years. But, the thought of Air Conditioning on the hot nights using a quiet fuel cell is always
on my mind. We have a no noise after 10pm in San Felipe in the area we live so a generator, at night, is out.

Russ, can you find the article ? 15k sounds cheap if it is reliable. What size propane tanks were they showing ? This is good stuff....

jorgie, don't mean to butt in for Russ, but I found these fuel-cell sites for home-use on Google. That particular model and price might be amongst
them.

In reading some of the results of the google search, I read about a unit that is in operation in Japan today. It is a 1kw system and runs on city
gas. I believe this is the unit I saw before I retired from EPRI. They were looking at the technology back then in 1998 and Japan has them
available commercially. COME ON PROPANE UNIT, I am ready!

I question they are available in US/Mexico. If you find them and I do hope so, there is no difference in gas or propane except a jet. The exception
maybe could be a fixed jet.
