Interesting fireplace
I found this neat: A fireplace that produces it's own fuel.
Plug in a water line, the fireplace does the ol' electrolysis, burns the hydrogen, and tosses some of the oxygen for colour. Pretty neat, though it must require a ton of power, and the flame isn't terribly large.
Still, a fairly unique application of electrolysis, I think.
