I wonder what is new here. Lithium boro hydride hydrogen generators were used during WW II to fill barrage balloons.I believe they were the size of a large briefcase.

Without being trite, the old adage of “Necessity is the mother of invention” couldn’t be more true. I don’t know if this is the answer of not, but the more attempts to come up with a reasonable range using hydrogen as a fuel source can only mean this alternative fuel has promise.
I wonder if the hydrogen research includes a conversion package to retrofit gas guzzlers?

The table above is incorrect with respect to Sodium Borohydride (NaBH4) which has been extensively tested and is currently in use in several products from Millenium Cell Corporation. Several years ago they built a fuel-cell powered Chrysler minivan (”Natrium” project) that could travel 300 miles on a tank of NaBH4 and water. It produces pure Hydrogen, plus a recyclable waste product NaBO2, or common borax, which is used in laundry detergents and is relatively benign.
