If this video gets your attention, take a look at my book "Fuel Cell Projects for the Evil Genius", available from Mc Graw Hill. Hydrogen is being produced from Sodium Borohydride (A Hydride)by a small catalyst pill, this hydrogen is being used to power a mini Fuel Cell which is in turn powering a low voltage motor and the pretty spinner.

  • Hello kght222 - the hydrogen is generated from Sodium Borohydride using a catalyst tablet which speeds up its decomposition. The fuel cell itself is a miniature fuel cell which is made by H-Tec called a fuel cell mini. The motor is just a basic low voltage motor, nothing special.

  • thats great can you give me list of materials you used please... thans..

  • Details on how to build this and many other fuel cells are in my book 'Fuel Cell Projects for the Evil Genius' by Gavin D J Harper available from Amazon

  • @gavindjharper well, its been 3 years now, just answer the question asked by enteliim, if that answer is going to make your book worthless, then maybe the damn thing was in the first place, but if that answer is only a small part of your book, then maybe it will encourage more people buy it.

  • how do you get the hydrogen to produce the electricity?

  • They are trying to mix it with carbon to make an ink substance and place it between the plates...

  • I don't see any future in a technology that leans heavily on platinum for proton exchange membranes.

  • Hi Gavin, thank you for sharing this extremely interesting experiment. Sodium Borohydride fuel cells are much better than methanol or hydrogen, which are contaminant and flammable/explosive. Also, for those who want to get and affordable fuel cell, you can check youtube (dot) com/medistechnologies or go to medistechnologies (dot) com to learn more.

  • PWM get it here ebay item 250261068740 $59.99 12/24 15 amp max output. or check out eliminategas(dotcom

  • thats great.. please can you give me list of materials you used..
