This article is about a non-functional fuel cell using water as fuel. For other purported water fueled devices, see water-fuelled car. For actual electrochemical cells running on other fuels, see fuel cell.
The water fuel cell is a non-functional design for a "perpetual motion machine" created by Stanley Allen Meyer (August 24, 1940 – March 20, 1998). Meyer claimed that a car retrofitted with the device could use water as fuel instead of gasoline. Meyer's claims about his "Water Fuel Cell" and the car that it powered were found to be fraudulent by an Ohio court in 1996.[1][2]
