The advantages of EFOY fuel cells in cabins

An EFOY fuel cell is your guarantee of having fully charged batteries in your cabin – all the time. The fuel cell works fully automatically with no negative environmental impact, regardless of the weather! You can enjoy the convenience of all the electrical appliances in your cabin without worrying about running out of power.

Full power

The EFOY fuel cell comes in four different versions, depending on the power needs in your cabin:

  • the EFOY 1600 fuel cell, with its output of 1,600 watt hours per day, is the convenient solution for your high energy needs;
  • the EFOY 1200 fuel cell, putting out 1,200 watt hours per day, is your passport to energy independence the whole year round;
  • the EFOY 900 fuel cell, with an output of 900 watt hours per day, is sufficient to keep you independent through spring and summer. It is also suited for hybrid use together with a solar cell;
  • the EFOY 600 fuel cell, rated at 600 watt hours per day, handles your base load and is also suited for hybrid use together with a solar cell.


Reliable and always available!

The EFOY produces electrical energy whenever it’s needed and it does so fully independent of the weather or season. It makes no difference whether it’s been raining for days on end or whether your cabin lies buried under leaves or snow. You’ll have power 100% of the time with all the comforts of home.

Fully automatic

The built-in Automatic Charge Control regulator permanently monitors battery voltage. If it dips below 12.3 volts, the EFOY fuel cell automatically cuts in to recharge the battery. It then automatically shuts off. You don’t need to lift a finger.

Extremely quiet!

EFOY fuel cells work so quietly that you can sleep right through it. Even if your cabin is just one room, the only thing you’ll hear from the EFOY when it’s in operation is a light hum, comparable to a computer’s fan. That’s an unbeatable advantage over generators!

Environmentally friendly!

Besides electrical power, the only things that come out of an EFOY are water vapor and carbon dioxide in an amount comparable to a child’s breath. The fuel that runs the EFOY can be generated from renewable resources and is easily biodegradable. Energy doesn’t have to be a dirty business!

Super light!

The EFOY fuel cell only weighs around 7 kg, making it a compact lightweight that you can even transport on foot to any cabin. What’s more, the practical EFOY fuel cartridges allow you to store several weeks of energy in your cabin. Electrical power has never been this easy!

Frost-proof

In case you have to run electrical appliances in your cabin all year long even though you’re not there, (weather stations, transmitters, etc.) you can rest assured that the EFOY will do its job, even in extremely low temperatures. The EFOY, moreover, has its own built-in anti-freeze feature for when it isn’t in operation.

• Remote control

The EFOY can communicate with you via mobile telephone or computer in applications when, once again, you aren’t present, but need to run electrical devices.

An example:

Here’s how powerful the EFOY 1600 fuel cell is

  • It delivers more than four times as much electricity as a 100 Wp solar system in summer – even in shade, at night and in the rain.
  • It charges a battery just as completely as a generator working six hours – but without the noise and the odor.
  • In winter, it even delivers more than 16 times as much electricity as a 100 Wp solar system.
