The present invention manufactures a power bank module utilizing light-weight Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC). In the fuel cell, an anode electricity collecting board and a cathode electricity collecting board adopt a same porous collecting board, and anode and cathode passageway boards having flow channels are deployed. The anode passageway board, the anode electricity collecting board, a proton exchange membrane, the cathode electricity collecting board, and the cathode passageway board are combined to form a single cell. The power bank module of the present invention further includes a fuel cartridge having a fuel box with NaBH4 disposed inside, which serves as a source of hydrogen gas. NaBH4 particles are covered with water-soluble material and the thickness of that is arranged according to the height the NaBH4 particles resides. In such a way, the time length of generation of hydrogen gas can be controlled depending on the time required to dissolve the water-soluble material. In addition, the
