A process and apparatus are disclosed for inexpensively, automatically, continuously and smartly transferring metal to electronic energy. Said process and apparatus comprise a removable cartridge and multilevel chambers. Said cartridge contains solid metals such as Al, Zn, Mg. etc that can react with water to produce hydrogen and materials such as Na, K, KOH or NaOH etc that can form acid or alkali solutions. Said process and apparatus have functions of automatically adjusting water level and pressure, stopping alkali or acid leaking to outside and real-time controlling yielding rate of hydrogen etc by only using weight, spring force and buoyant force. This system or apparatus is an inexpensive portable power plant that can replace traditional batteries, direct metal-air fuel cells, direct methanol fuel cells and hydrogen-consuming fuel cells that need accessory hydrogen storage system. This process and apparatus also can be used as portable hydrogen generator.
