>electricity
In the residential market, none of the tankless electric water heaters have enough wattage to do more than take the chill off when washing your hands. So many were returned by customers that many plumbing supply houses like mine quit selling them. At 40-60 psi and a 1/2" supply, I estimate (based on my experience with spa inline elec elements) that it'd take at least a 6kw element to provide warm-ish water. In our coaches, when running on the 12v pump with low water flow, maybe 2 or 3 kw to get an almost hot shower.
