Thanks for the info..But I still need to know the voltage of the cell. I will have trouble running my appliances on 12V and my car will blow up with 117 volts ( not to mention the ac vs dc problems). Solar cells use the same great way to determine their output. .5 v at 2 amps..not a problem, just keep adding cells in series to get the voltage. When trying to determine a price, if the price/watt seems fine but you now have to have so many more cells to get the voltage (or current) to what you need the price/watt falls apart. I realize all this is quite new, but the specs should give either a voltage or current. The other can of course be calculated. Converters can also change the supply to what is needed. The losses of the converter must be added into the equation of power required as well. If the cell produces 48v DC and you need to run your house, it must be inverted and the losses added back to determine that you now need 2000 watts to generate the 1000watts of usable power. Thanks for the dialog. By the way, the cell sounds very exciting and GLE should have the other fuel cell companies a little worried. I hope more news follows shortly. George
