@Ritalie The patent office doesn't allow hocus - pocus pseudo science BS that hasno basis in engineering or science. That is probably why those were rejected. I bet those people never mention that part, because a lot are trying to scam ignorant investors who buy into their tin foil hat theories. So I'll even bite. If what you said is true... Where is it? You don't need to patent anything to sell it. Where is the actual verified third party testing of a prototype at least? They could just make the product, and show some people for a kikstarter at least. Yet I see nothing, and that is why I call BS. You are being gullible, my friend.

@hase3362 Hydrogen is a terrible storage medium outside very niche uses due to volumetric density. You need to sacrifice your cars volume to fit the heavy/expensive storage tanks which need to be like 700 BAR. Toyotas Mirai weighed like 1,000 more pounds than a Tesla Model 3! Like WTF, you can make floatinf blimps with hydrogen. Anyway heavier with much less interior space. All for a fuel that costs triple the amount. It doesn't stop there. Since they also don't have banks of batteries to send power all at once? Hydrogen cars also don't benefit from the sheer instant torque, and acceleration as EVs do. All of this at triple the price of an already expensive EV. Since fuel cells will never be cheap due to the large amounts of even rarer metals. All of this for 53 miles more range? Let us not even speak about how hydrogen has zero infrastructure. It just doesn't make sense. This doesn't even factor in batteries have significantly more potential, and are getting better and better every year. A 500 wh/kg battery just started being produced this year. That is nearly double the power of the Model 3s batteries. So we already hit the mark where EVs can out perform hydrogen. So there is zero point in trying to make hydrogen the fuel source for vehicles anyway.
