Still not good enough for a car.. but what this is really going to do is 
make solar and wind much more viable.

If you can cover your roof with solar, and have a washing machine sized 
box in your basement that converts spare power in the day into hydrogen 
and oxygen, then burns it later when it's needed.  Or a much larger 
version for huge solar arrays that can provide power on demand at night.
