I guess I could use a solar cell to create hydrogen from the water drain-off, but how do you compress the hydrogen -- perhaps a manual bike tire pump or similar could do that. Does anyone know of a portable hydrogen generator/compressor? >> your shoes ofcourse! having a small pump built into shoes would allow you to take a step and then....whooosh, another step and whooosh, using a hose that goes from uncompressed tank to your shoe then from your shoe to yaour commpressed tank and a valve(rubber probably) built into the sole near the heel is in the middle of it all. kinda like that piezo electric thing almost ofcourse without advanced valve design for the compressedtank it would probably make your shoe harder to compress when you step down on it, or (?)you could use dry ice maybe to chill the gas in another chamber then pump it into its tank(?) but if you make it too complicated the whole thing is bound to fail!
