Why can't they be bult those generators inside section's of pipe so you can spin lots of them on the way down through the pipe.

Really cool video! I've made variations of similar setups. Just so you know. If you are curious to know the exact foot of head( difference in elevation) of your stock tanks and your Hydro set up. You can open the pressure gauge and keep your gate valve closed. This will effectively give you a PSI reading of just the fall of water from point A to point B. You can then take that PSI and multiply it by 2.31 and it will give you an approximate elevation difference. Nice build!

I would like to hook this up to a battery but cannot find any useful videos , do you have a battery you would recommend so I can use this generator to charge a power bank
@jimridge12 ай бұрын
Great question. But I have to admit I too would probably just go to KZfaq and start looking at DIY videos on building a battery charger (I did look and there are lots of them).

I'm curious if it's possible for this to be a closed system that can cycle the water endlessly and produce power continously.
@morgunbrunelle45732 ай бұрын
You can, actually. I have a similar set up to this. I made a RAM pump that pumps water from a creek about 43' up a hill to a 275 gallon stock tank. About 3/4's of the way up I drilled a hole and sleeved 1 1/2" pvc into another stock tank that acts as my Hydro Battery. The water then falls down hill from that tank and powers a very similar hydro electric setup than this. The leftover water that passes through my electric setup is fed with a garden hose back down to the creek to be re pumped and cycled once more. The RAM pump is a passive pump that pumps continuously. The initial start up for me took about 48 hours to fill the stock tanks. After that, I have not touched it, and it has been running for about 2 months now.

Thanks for uploading man. There aren't too many videos on this subject sadly. I was wanting to do the math on a large scale system, but it is very technical, and confusing. Not a lot of helpful info on the subject, fun little project though!
@jimridge13 ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment! One of the main reasons for this experiment-fun project was to learn first hand about a system like this with the idea in mind of upscaling to something much larger. Which I still have plans to do. Looking at ways of creating a more viable size reservoir-battery and larger generator capacity.

Great question! I am not a 100% sure on the answer. I guess one first has to think do you connect them electrically in series or parallel.
