I've purchased a little water electrolyzer from Amazon to use as a bleach alternative, and it seems to work quite well. I wonder why this isn't more popular. A little less convenient (takes a little time to make, shelf life of days) and more upfront cost perhaps?

As I understand it, that's just a way to create bleach, and bleach itself isn't particularly expensive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochlorination

it does seem significantly less noxious that the typical bleach I’ve used, but maybe it’s just about the dilution level
