Most don't realize it, but hydrogen is safer than any hydrocarbon gas, be it butane, propane, natural gas, etc. If you have a leak, it floats up and through the roof; the hydrocarbons accumulate on the floor and build up. You could die just breathing the stuff in your sleep. Methane, marsh gas, accumulates in valleys, low spots or depressions, when there is no wind. People who are uninformed and make camp in a low spot just may fall asleep that night never to wake up again. It happens down here. Plus, because it doesn't accumulate, there is much less of a likelihood that it will explode. Anyway, it's great to increase your mileage, and I will find out if I will be able to make enough without electronics to heat the house and workroom. No, I still haven't made one for my Nighthawk...
