Build Your Own Fuel Cells

Phillip Hurley does a great job in all of his books. The average person can understand and follow his instructions. This is my third Hurley book and it definitely will not be my last. He covers each step of his projects several times in several different ways in case you didn't understand the first time. Most of his projects can be completed with normal every day tools, a big plus for most of us.

This book is fantastic DIY help for fuel cell experimenters. I was able to successfully build a fuel cell using the instructions in this book. I have some helpful tips for people attempting to build the cell. The exacto saw is not the way to go when cutting the end plates. Use straight cut tin snips instead. Be careful if using the liquid electrical tape, because if you put too much on towards the bottom of the screw you won't be able to get the wingnuts on. I was a little confused when preparing the rubber gasket. Suffice it to say just cut the mylar surrounds and the rubber gasket together as a sandwich and you will have all three pieces. Other than that the book was essential in producing a hand made fuel cell.

Practical instructions that can work for tech trained DIY types.

This is the definitive book that all should have in their personal library. Phillip Hurley takes you step by step to energy independence. No fluff here. Well written and thought out and well documented with illustrations and photos. All one needs to know is how operate a soldering iron. Low tech teaching method with high tech results. Want to slash those energy bills? Buy ALL of his books. Not one contains any disappointment.Ed Rivera
