I like the idea of a fuel cell, but I just don't know enough about them to attempt it. I talked to an electrical engineer last night and he said the ac generator with a full wave bridge would work, but not as efficient as a dc generator. I think I might try this out as it won't cost much since I already have the ac generator. The voltage (110v) should be right for charging a 96v pack and with the generator I should be able to put 40 amps into the batteries. I see on ebay that I can get a 1000 volt, 40 amp full wave bridge for less than 10 bucks. Anyone know if that will be big enough?
