I'm thinking loudly about three questions:

1. How does the maintenance fee and replacement fee look like, per year?

2. Is it possible to develop a home use version?

3. I assume the tide is going to be consistent, but need to dig deeper into this.

I suspect that these things are heckin' dangerous unless they are far from humans, so that would be a challenge I think.

Good point.

Yes, one for your shower drain.

I was thinking a much smaller version TBH, or a big one for multiple homes.
