voltage boost

I have a pair of Hydrogen cells which each produce 1.2V. I need them to drive a LEGO 5V motor. Can anyone suggest a method of doing this?

Voltage Boost

Other than using discrete low saturation voltage transistors operating a high fequency ferrite transformer (LC oscillator) and then rectifying the output, I do not know of any other method of obtaining a higher voltage from a low voltage 2 cell battery. Difficulties here include optaining sufficent output current for the motor.
