Ok, I know nothing about this but I'm curious to try. We have a small bywash in our garden (some of you may remember me at one time considering a water source heat pump but Canal and River Trust did not take kindly to that idea and we also discovered that when maintenance is done on the canal the bywash doesn't flow) so we couldn't rely on it all of the time. I'd like to see if it is possible to try and use this flow for something such as charging things. We don't have electric nearby (just a small shed) but I'm curious to see if there is any way of generating some kind of power we could use to charge things for example..... Other half who has the electrical knowledge has refused to get involved in such hairbrained ideas so I'm sure buildhubbers can point me into what sort of equipment I may need (and I don't want to spend much otherwise I risk divorce if it doesn't work or I mess something up)! Electrical stuff is not my strong point so you'll need to spell anything out to me in a non technical way..... Video of area (bywash is shallow despite looking quite deep). 20240715_112416.mp4 This is something I'd seen on Amazon not sure if its suitable and what else I'd need.
