This is by far the most technically advanced innovation I’ve found for a five gallon bucket so far. Sam Redfield developed this design to provide a source of electricity that can be built cheap and hooked up to any source of flowing water – including irrigation systems, creeks and streams, or even sewage systems.

This could actually power a whole house if wired correctly. It amazes me how much energy we have just flowing throw our water supply that no one is harvesting. If you are very mechanically capable, you can download the full free 35 page design manual in a PDF and attempt to build your own five gallon hydroelectric power plant.
