RE: REFLECTOR:Why not test NPG+?Physics, Shmysics.
I've got a special motor that's been running in my garage for over two years
now. It is connected to a water pump that lifts the water a couple of feet.
The gravity then pulls the water down, creating a siphoning effect, that
drives a small turbine generator that in turn powers the special motor.
Works great. No external connections. I use the excess power to run the
web servers.

This pump has all ceramic seals and is bench-tested at 2,000 plus hours.
And, since it's electric, it won't rob too much HP. I know, I know. What
if my 110 AMP electrical system fails? I've got to devise another
scientific test for that. You guys want to take all the fun out of this.
Just in case, I'm taking glider lessons.
Dennis – do you keep a cord attached to provide power to the pumpJ?
Otherwise, if it took 2 hp to drive a pump directly, it will take about 3
hp to drive the alternator to make the electricity to drive the pump to move
the same amount of coolant as if the belt drove the pump directly. It’s all
about physics.
Anyway; let’s get these things in the air so you and Kurt and I can get
together and make a lot of noise.
