Ah yes, temptations. If only the means to make electric energy were as readily, and affordably, available as the means of consuming electric energy. An idea that has always kept my intrest is this. What ever consumes electric energy in reverse can produce electric energy. Think about the basics. A water pump powered by an electric motor/ running water drives a turbine spinning an electric generator. A fan/ a windgenny. Light/ photovoltaics. Heat, cold, the list goes on and on. Your computer!...
It may take a little ingenuity, but you'll come up with something. In the meantime here are some websites to ponder over to get those bio electric brain juices to flowing.

E meaning Energy, m meaning mass, c being celeritas(the speed of light), and 2 represents squaring a number. In this case the speed of light. 1,079,252.848.8 km/h.
Basically what all of that means is that mass and energy, energy and mass are one and the same at the speed of light squared or 1,164,786,711,642,915,661.44 km/h.
At that speed simple items such as a screw driver or a frying pan could have enough energy in them power a city. If the entire electromagnetic spectrum were a football field, that portion of it that is visible light would be a single blade of grass.
http://www.geo.mtu.edu/rs/back/spectrum/Your probably wondering why I am giving all this type of information. You just want to run a pool filter pump. There have been times when all it took for me to have an understanding of a thing, was to here someone state in just a certain way. Like 3 way/4way switches on a lighting circuit. All it took was to here someone say "you can have as many 4 way switches as you want as long as there is a 3 way switch at each end." From then on I could wire up these switches without any problem. I hope something I have written or maybe something at one of these websites will affect you the same way. Who knows, you may even have an original idea that no one has thought of before. The potential is there.
