As per wired;

This pocket-sized fuel cell from Swedish firm myFC is designed to recharge your smartphone in the wild — using only hydrogen. A tablespoon of water tipped on to the pack’s permeable membrane lid is enough to trigger a clean chemical reaction. The H2O releases hydrogen stored in solid form in a replaceable PowerPukk cartridge, generating about 4Wh of electricity. That’s enough to charge one iPhone or seven iPods, from a puck that costs only £1.20. “Millions of phone users lack easy access to a reliable supply of electricity for charging, especially outdoors,” says Björn Westerholm, CEO of myFC. “PowerTrekk is one renewable solution.” Who needs juice when you have water?
