PolyFuel reveals DMFC power supply for notebook
PolyFuel, Inc. today announced that it has developed the first functional version of its prototype power supply for notebook-class computers that can provide continuous non-stop runtimes with the simple hot swap of small cartridges of methanol fuel.
The consumer-friendly designs have been fully integrated with a notebook - the Lenovo T40 ThinkPad(R). PolyFuel developed the prototype as a technology demonstrator and proof of concept for OEM electronics manufacturers.
In PolyFuel's prototype, the power supply features a detachable fuel cartridge - about the size of a deck of cards - that can be swapped out while the computer continues to run.
