Check out this GO HONDA
chec k out these photos guys in sum honda have the FCX clarity basically runs of the gas u have at home. 50L of Natural gas at home gives you 270miles pert ank.Does anyone know how much 50L of gas costs us?Basically what they do is it has a electric motor and inside the car protons and electrons are stripped from the hydrogen atom and the elctrons are transmitted to the elctric motor.Fuel cell technology check it all out its fuking amazing.Does anyone else find this as intresting as i do?

Fark the technology is going full steam ahead.
I just joined here to learn a little about cng.
Funny thing one of the forum members works for Honda and their cng fuel vehicles.
Looks like their actually 3 steps ahead of just refulling your car with cng to burn in a internal combustion engine.
Much cleaner too.

Its amazing i want one
Go to the website posted, plenty of talk about home refuelling untill you find out that the refuel system only lasts for x amount of hours of refueling and needs a $2000 rebuild.
Plenty of talk about pump failures, hoses bursting and cooling fans going dead.
Dont think the system is legal here.
Oh and i dont think you need 50 litres, a much smaller amount is used. Im still reading and trying to get my head around it slowly.
The process has been known for a whle but the cost of making the convertor required has been the big issue.
100 KW is nearly as quick as a diesel gemini (SLOW) but if your just after a cheap run around it would be fine.
$84 @ 1.68 p/Litre at yesterday prices for 50 Litres ... crazy prices !
Trust thyself only, and another shall not betray thee.

A diesel gemini put out something like 40kw. A mate had one. My Patrol puts out 116kw and can lug around almost 3 ton. 100kw in a small car is not exactly slow.

Thats LPG mate not natural gas.im talking about the gas you get from your house.
Its not that cheap once you look at conversion and maintanance costs for the home pump (phill).
From what ive been reading most are saying that with high fuel prices that now they are starting to see a saving.
The argument of cng vs lpg continues, lpg is freely avaliable atm @ < 70c a litre at most servos.
Apparently the home refuller can take more than all night to refuel your car so im guessing that they would be selling it compressed at servos and ready to fill in less than 10 minutes rather than hours.
Hondas doing a great job but the refueling part will be interesting.
Refuel at home, get gas cheap but the hiddern cost of set up and maintanance
Cost of using home cng?
