It doesn’t use salt water, just plain potable water. The toy that you speak about is just proof of concept and his tech is scalable as the inventor says. Anyway, there is 6 LEDs not 1 and they are fully lit. If you want buy it you only have to replenish the water and after a while the electrodes. And if you look at electronics supliers you can buy harvesting modules for vibrations or thermal gradient for the same money but with less output, a lot less output. https://www.mouser.co.uk/c/embedded-solutions/energy-harvesting-modules/So, there is free energy to be had if anyone wants to scale up. Personally i would choose something that don’t require huge power banks. Any electric pile is good, cheap to maintain or replenish and use bifilar coils to amplify … easiest solution diy. Have a look at the patent attached printscreen from his website 1. PATENT CLAIM "Electricity generator with drinkable water, discharging oxygen and hydrogen" characterized by the fact that it is made of an electrical insulator container, split into several compartments (which constitute the generator's elements), air-sealed between them, filled with drinkable water, without added salts, acids or organic substances, inserting in every compartment a pair (or more) of lamellar or concentric electrodes made from different materials (e.g. Al and Cu) with the electronegativity difference as high as possible between them, and they can be alloys, treated metals, plated, semiconductors or other materials; the electrodes should have a physical structure so that it ensures a contact surface as high as possible with the water such as spiraled, mesh wire, jagged plate or another more effective structure; on the upper heads of electrodes devices shaped like a bell can be attached for gas collection (O2 or H2) discharged by every electrode; the container's elements can be interconnected from an electric point of view in series or parallel as desired, just like batteries, and at the container's exit point it is connected in parallel with it an electrolytic condenser and an impulse generator or an oscillator at the exit of which a doubler or a voltage multiplier is connected. https://worldwide.espacenet.com/patent/search/family/050552643/publication/EP3039172A2?q=Ep3039172Looks pretty simple and the inventor is willing to colaborate even without financial gain.
