Even if it is only to power the lights in your barn, shed or outdoor lighting - an inexpensive submersible hydro generator will not only save on the eletric bill but can keep you out of the dark those times the power lines go a bit 'heywire.'
As explained by one of the many HomesteadingToday users writing in response to a question about electric water wheels:
"I meant to show you the 'Aquiar Submersible Generator' that submerges directly into a stream ...Yeah, it may be water under the bridge, but this and other friendly advice in our Alternative Energy forum may save you a few pennies on your electric bill while keeping your backyard fixtures out of the dark.
... you need a stream at least 13 inches deep.You can add a rock wier to increase your flow."
- water speed = Watts
- 4 mph = 36
- 6 mph = 60
- 9 mph = 96

There is NO place for me to make a major post that comment posts can be made to. You were meaning that weren't you, or did you just mean this type of post?
