All of the little electrolyzers I have seen use KOH as the
electrolyte. Essentially no more than a ni-cad battery run at well
above electrolysis voltage, with means to separate and gather the
oxygen and hydrogen, rather than just venting it out of the top of the
cell like the batteries do. And

Why is that a real kicker? The KOH serves to lower the electrical
resistance of the water. Nafion membranes do the
