Considering buying a Gasoline-Generator? Maybe you should take a look a this.
The Jadoo XRT, a personal self-contained portable power generator that runs on Hydrogen!
It produces 110VAC and 12VDC at 100 watts with a run time of up to 22 hours (based on 2200W-h) depending on the load.
It can be run anywhere, even on your desk since it doesn’t produce any harmful chemicals. It is to be considered of as a large battery pack.
The XRT system which contains the N-Gen Fuel Cell will set you back $7999.00 and can hold 6 Fuel Canisters; the smaller 130W-h is $499.00 and the large fuel canister costs $849.00 (which the XRT needs 6 of to run for up to 22 hours).
The advantage of this system is that if you need a durable amount of portable power anywhere, this unit will be much lighter then the comparable amount in battery technology. And HOT-swappable.
It’s a great solution yet still a little expensive for the average home-user. However the N-Gen Power Unit costs only $999.00. It will only produce 12VDC at 100 watts, it would be perfect for your HAM-Radio, and you can always supply your own power converter.
Jadoo also sells a Refill Station capable of refilling your canisters. Now where your going to get your 99.85% pure H2 from, I don’t know, but it’s still a cool system!

Someone left a semble out it should be H2o water. The Portable Hydrogen POWER! devids the Hydrogen from the Oxigen and uses the hydrogen to produce the electrity any left overs is turned back to water by remixing the two elements back. not sure how for I am looking into this myself. But the water must be 99.7% pure with no chemicals or trace metals.

Not sure if I understand.
THIS unit runs on hydrogen, and it produces water sure…
The perfect solution would be power from water. But that I would imagine is still some time away.

Not really there is a company who has a designed and built a Hygrogen AC/DC generators uses water as the fuel and seperates the Hydrogen and the oxigen and uses the Hydrogen to produce elec. I will find the link and post it here soon.
Also saw this on tv decovery ch. about 6 months ago. I want one……
