Can anyone suggest any good sources for water powered
electric generators like this one:

and/or other groups to ask in? How about solar generators?
How practical is it to use either or both?

Note: I'm aware of Google, and Dogpile, etc, but would still
appreciate any specific sites and groups people are willing
to recommend.


Hi dh,

re. yr first question:

For a sensible answer on yr other questions: more questions first...
Are you in need of power on a sailboat? What kind of sailboat?
What is your Ah consumption in 24 hrs? What size is yr battery bank?
Do you sail a lot or are you gunk-holing?
Do you have room for rigid solar panels?
dito for a wind generator?
Do you have a folding prop or is a propshaft alternator a realistic
option?
