But it takes a s-load of power to make, and that’s not even counting the mining of the necessary ores or the tooling to make the thing or the assembly process, etc.

Not so. This fella was looking for a cure for cancer, his own, then accidently fell into this discovery. Burning the hydrogen from saltwater.
Filling a test tube full of saltwater, he used a radio frequency generator to agitate the molecules within the h2o, releasing hydrogen.
This report was from 2009. The freq. generator uses fairly low power to create an intense +-1500F flame.
Well, the dude died from his cancer. His discovery also died.
