KryptKoin is one of the best!!!
Hi man,

do you live next to a river ? you can buy cheap hydro generator like this :

source : http://www.ph-energies.com/index.php/energie-hydraulique/turbine-kaplan/serie-mhg-lh

it will generate about 1kw to 5kw depending on the model you buy.
Advantage : low maintenance cost (almost nothing)
Disadvantage : need a building close to a river with descent water flow, need to plan it seriously with the help of expert because this is serious shit here Smiley

As i live in France, it's pretty easy to me to find good place, dunno for USA. Maybe you need to move for free electricity;)


PS : its working
I just saw the website. The first one weight is 75kg? That's so heavy. It should be implemented in a river or a waterfall?

Just build one of these. Technically you get paid to exercise (you get BTC as payment)

I know it's a joke but why would someone cycle to turn on 8 lights? Is there any other advantage for this stuff?

I fix broken miners. And make holes in teeth :-)
That's a good solution for my kids.

Still, I think the best option is renegade hydro setup near an abandoned dam. Wonder how long a BFL single would run submerged in a stream.

This is a good idea for sportive people, but not for the lazy ones so yea i dont think that this will make it that far haha.

Well we had Tesla's magnetic generator but the government took it away from the people so oil companies can make a fortune...DEMOCRACY!

how do they know, you had one?

i have 2 ponds with a waterfall between them. but i suppose it wont generate enough power to pump the water back otherwise thats perpetual energy and that cant exist.

well, perpetual energy does exist : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8yW5cyXXRc

Well my father worked for a water company.   A very small part of the business was energy production, obviously they are managing resources like lakes anyway.  Peak power capacity sells at a premium, thats why you can be sure it is used where its easy to do so.  To just flick a switch and sell 1mw of energy for an hour could earn alot I imagine and justify upkeep for all the times it sits collecting rain?
   Im pretty sure power companies do it but only in minority nationally, nuclear is incredibly cheap when done right.   They could use tidal power, I live a few miles from one of the largest tidal ranges in the world; if Brunel was still alive he'd do it

On a smaller scale, I dont know.  I think a watermill setup is small scale already, this device above is remarkable

Is does require a gradient though, alot of places I know the river/stream is flat.  However they could dig it out but then you got the green brigade objecting to your interference

i have 2 ponds

Make the ponds bigger, till they drain out you have power - maybe if it rained alot  Tongue   Some energy companies pump water up hill during daylight or times of overcapacity on the network.   Then when everyone turns on the kettle after watching a popular tv program, they pull the plug on the pool and get the extra boost.   Not free but capacity costs and Enron took advantage of this

Yup.. Just another way of storing energy. This is probably more efficient than most. Everyone please stop saying batteries too because they are SUPER expensive and not all that efficient. Batteries are good when space is a concern.

Can you cite some examples/data of energy companies pumping water uphill? That sounds awesome I wonder if it can be done in smaller scale.

no, its not working atm, it's far away from where I live. With my setup, i've been able to take out between 1-2 kwh from a 3.5kwh . My setup is not great and i don't have enough flow to make it work @ 100%.
I've find one for you with the different step of installation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqKiesYY1xQ

edit : I paid 4k€ for a kaplan turbine 3.5 kwh (can remember the brand) without the cost of the additional work.

Stick a kite with wind vane out the back of a train or bus you are a passenger on and get free power Cheesy


Power your computer with thousands of potatoes ?

this small server needs around 12 potatoes to power it and the spuds have to be changed every couple of days.

Each potato generates about half a volt.
