Just let me know when I can pump 22 gallons of distilled water into the tank and produce the hydrogen as needed.

Before that, I don’t see much future in it.

Guess it won’t happen in KKKalifornia. No water, well except for an entire ocean that is sitting there waiting to have a few desalination plants built that could elevate the population out of poverty as well as or having to pi$$ on a brick.

Takes 31.7 megajoules (about 30,046 btu) of energy to split a liter of water into hydrogen and oxygen using electrolysis. Now expand that to 22 US gallons (83.3 liters) and you need a little over 2.5 million btu just to produce the available hydrogen.
