The core and main cost of the Hydrogen Generator is the electrolyzer. It is responsible for water's safe and efficient electrolysis into hydrogen and oxygen.
The electrolyzer is comprised of cells, and the voltage across these cells is very important. The theoretical electrolysis voltage is 1.23v. The cells in the H2-GEN electrolyzer measure 1.8 volts. A higher voltage electrolyzer has a shorter life and will generate less hydrogen over time. Lower-quality electrolyzers may have voltages as high as 2.2 volts. The voltage will increase as the machine is used and the electrolyzer ages. Hydrogen production becomes less efficient. When the voltage of the electrolyzer exceeds 3.5V, it may produce ozone, which can be harmful if inhaled. The electrolyzer cells are coated in Iridium(IR). Even though this increases cost, it has better voltage/temperature stability and efficient gas production. The current is 20-25A for each electrolyzer layer, 150-200ml/min specs. High current is not used on the electrolyzer to increase the hydrogen output and save materials cost since it lowers the quality and working stability. The Dupont 117 membrane is robust at 180um thick. The electrolyzer is paired with a medical-grade power supply that provides an ultra-stable flow of electricity. Even after 5 years of commercial use, the generators continue to perform with no issue. Due to the internal circuit design and aluminum alloy shell, the equipment has low noise and good heat dissipation.

The current state of the electrolyzer for hydrogen production:
There are varying perspectives regarding the best electrolyzer in terms of efficiency, durability, hydrogen production, and purity of materials.
Sponge Titanium Electrolysis
AxiomH2 has been studying and innovating its own electrolyzer designs. They have found that sponge titanium, a porous matrix, is very effective at electrolyzing water at lower voltages. This material is more expensive but more efficient and durable.
Gold Electrolysis

Gold Electrolysis
Since gold does not corrode and is quite inert, it is the ideal material for the electrolyzer. The issue, of course, is cost; therefore, this class of generators is reserved primarily for clinical applications and those who can afford expensive tools.

The development of the ideal electrolyzer
At present, there are divergent perspectives on the best design for water electrolysis. There is room for innovation in researching nanomaterials and the unit's architecture. Nanomaterials arranged in sacred geometric patterns will likely enhance electrolytic reactions, especially if the atomic arrangement is a fractal of the electrolyzer's architecture. An intricate three-dimensional surface exposing more material to electrolysis may produce more gas.
Higher H2 Output and Oxyhydrogen
The latest research shows cellular oxygen can be displaced if molecular hydrogen is inhaled without any oxygen. This has been noticed at higher flow rates that are being studied because it was found that these higher flow rates can remediate severe degenerative diseases, including but not limited to cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other mental disorders. These findings need more evaluation, however several experts we work with have recently agreed with this perspective as well. These higher outputs are an important consideration that inhaling solely pure hydrogen may not be the most ideal way. In our experience, oxyhydrogen plasmas are superior to molecular H2 only. We see it in our practice, especially with O2 saturation. Granted, most of the research thus far is on molecular hydrogen, but this does not mean that this is where it ends. Oxyhydrogen mixes may prove to be even more beneficial. Further, if Brown's gas does exist, it is yet to be studied to the degree that molecular hydrogen has been. It could be because it has been disproven to exist in the past, but it still warrants more investigation now because our testing capabilities are far more advanced than before.
This is an emerging field of science; thus, it is important to recognize that the current view may change over time.
