Anyone using Hydro? How, with what,I'm lookin @ water baby

 Would a water baby work off my well? Could i use solar to power my well pump ? I'm Interested in how others are working with hydro power.
Thanks
Chris

 Not sure how you could use a hydro setup on your well. Are you trying to hook it up to the pipe from the well? Hence the idea of pumping with solar to create the flow? There are many types of solar well pumps out there, just size accordingly. You would probably need to do some math to figure out if the power you create with the PV, to run your pump, is more or less than what output you would get from the hydro. Buying two systems with a net output of zero would seem unwise.

  I am not sure also. I was thinking of pumping the water up to a tank and then piping it into the baby.  It does seem that it would not really work out, come to think about it. Guess i'm better off finding a stream.
Thanks
