Toyota’s Cartridge Helps Make Hydrogen Portable
https://hackaday.com ^ | 8/21/2022 | by: Lewin Day

Hydrogen has long been touted as the solution to cleaning up road transport. When used in fuel cells, the only emissions from its use are water, and it eliminates the slow recharging problem of battery-electric vehicles. It’s also been put forth as a replacement for everything from natural gas supplies to laptop batteries.

Toyota has been pushing hard for hydrogen technology, and has worked to develop vehicles and infrastructure to this end. The company’s latest efforts involve a toteable hydrogen cartridge – letting you take hydrogen power on the go!

For all its benefits, hydrogen is a bit of a tricky thing to deal with. Molecules of H2 are so small that they tend to leak out of most containers, finding a way to slip between other molecules. This can cause problems, such as leaks, or hydrogen embrittlement in metal components. Thus materials must be selected carefully to store hydrogen safely. It’s commonly stored as a compressed gas or liquid, or within solids in special metallic forms.

“usc, TexasGator just said your claims of accuracy are impossible.”

I also said ridiculous.

Yep. He pulls a gun out of the box and beats the world record.

Not happening.

Don't care. I don't know TexasGator so his opinion/whatever doesn't mean squat to me.

Not at all what happened and you weren't there. You don't know.

“Within 5 shots @ 300 yards I had 1/4” grouping. Not bad for first attempt at dialing it in.”

So you were dialing it in. Doesn’t make sense. No way would you have a 1/4” group while dialing it in.

Your post:

And so...do the research. Good grief!
Something tells me you’ve got all the answers anyhow.

You couldn’t hit a Denubian Slug with an auto-aiming type-3 Phaser rifle in a vaccuum from 10 meters away.

Not exactly. Carbon levels are about 50 percent higher than recent norms.... considerably above the norm for the last several million years. But they certainly have been higher in the past, and those high times don’t correlate well with heat, and heat certainly doesn’t correlate well with less life.

No. Hydrogen. They switched to Helium to prevent those disasters, but Helium proved less capable of carrying weight, so were used mostly for camera footage and not for passengers or freight.

What is the process for obtaining hydrogen? Cracking petroleum and letting the carbon escape?

Ooooops! I was wrong. Well, both start with the letter “H”.

I had just turned 80 a couple of minutes after midnight, so probably had over-celebrated with adult beverages.
