Quoth Jim Sander: > Some areas will prohibit you from storing liquid fuel on premisis. > Storing a couple 20lb H2 tanks (or CNG/LPG/propane if the cell can do a > clean conversion for you) is much more acceptable (if no less dangerous > under proper conditions) than a having a big jug of diesel around. I would like to second Jim's comment about the danger of compressed gas tanks. Storing compressed, flammable gas cylinders indoors is equally dangerous/illegal to liquid fuels. While hydrogen will disperse if not enclosed, other gases (propane) will pool at the point of lowest elevation, guaranteeing an eventual concentration sufficient to sustain combustion if ignited (boom).
