That $700 price I quoted was for a fuel cell bladder only, 44 gallon size. That was for the bladder only and didn't include fill and drain fittings. Custom tanks seem to be in the $1,000-$5,000 range. Depending on certification authority, many tanks require a hard external shell and internal fire prevention foam.

What about a fuel cell, like they use in high performance autos? Aren't they lined with a bladder? I am not sure if you could get one custom made in a bigger size or not but that might work. Just a random thought.
