    I wonder if the water is drinkable, that would be pretty cool if your bike also produced hydration on rides so you wouldn’t have to carry extra water.

      When hydrogen reacts with oxygen it produces pure water. Pure water is quite reactive and will leave chemical burns on your skin. The reason is that pure water will try its best to absorb minerals, etc. And your body contains a lot of minerals and other stuff. Never drink chemically pure water!

        Pure water is not going to burn you and you can even drink it (though, over time, it can leach minerals from you but then again so do carbonated beverages). People buy distilled water all the time.

            What do you mean by “pure water” then? What exactly are you referring to?

            Edit: Ok, it looks like judging by your other post, you’re referring specifically to type II deionized water. That is not really what people immediately think of when you say pure water. Also, it’s not going to burn you unless you boil it.

              What else can you think of seeing “pure”? If it’s not chemically pure, then it’s not pure.

                Literally any purified water or other variety of distilled water would probably come to mind for most people.
