Portable Power
Introducing the HydroPak.
Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies completed the pre-production unit of the HydroPak portable power generator - a clean and quiet alternative to lead acid battery packs and portable generators. The first of the HydroPak line is in pre-production stage and has initiated UL and CE certification and first shipments are expected to start in late 2008. The suggested retail price has been set at $400/unit, and $20-30 for each 270Wh cartridge refill.
The HydroPak is a revolutionary portable power device combining fuel cell technology with a water activated cartridge energy storage technology. The result: clean power where and when you need it - just add water!
The unique HydroPak water-activated cartridge system:
•Provides infinite shelf life and can generate enough power to recharge an average notebook computer
•Can run indoors with quiet operation and zero harmful emissions
•Is quieter, lighter and smaller than generators
•Stores more energy than possible with batteries
•Has a lower cost than any similar fuel cell device
|
•50W continuous
•1 AC port 110V
•2 USB ports 5V DC
•Energy Storage: 270Wh per cartridge refill
•Cartridge activation using normal water
•Dimensions: 23cm x 25cm x 11cm
•Weight: 1.6kg
•Power availability post-activation: 30 days.

Horizon has been working on portable power solutions since 2005, with a goal to introduce its first products to the market in 2008 in close collaboration with strategic industrial partners and major brands in their respective categories. Markets are industrial and commercial and applications ranging from remote cordless power tool chargers to emergency power.
Innovation in these markets will be driven by added features, functions, and increased practicality for customers. Horizon is working closely with partners to create products that offer a competitive edge in their respective markets.
Our company's product design capability combined with highly efficient fuel cell products will eventually create compelling and competitive products to existing alternatives, at similar price levels.
Horizon is also able to provide high levels of storable energy with reduced weight and size for more demanding, high performance, requirements today’s energy storage technologies cannot meet.
