For some time to come, fuel cells for portable products will be just a novelty/stunt. In the best case scenario, they are a battery charger supplying constant current because they are much harder to throttle than a lithium battery, particularly as they get miniaturized. A serious problem for

Jed with your numbers, which I am sure you have right, it seems to me that nuclear power is great for H production when we implemented LENR on a local level. Those mega investment that never can be economically sound could get a second life. I think if you are in France solar is an alternative
