- Durable Plastic Shell for better protection
- Better solution for energy conservation
- Ability to charge different devices such as lithium batteries, mobile phones, and radios
- Anti-rust components inside
How Does This Hydroelectric Generator Work?
This small device works in the same mechanism as a hydropower plant which is normally located in the middle of a river by building a dam. Once you set up this small device with a water flow that has considerable pressure (connect to a faucet, connect at the bottom of a water tank), the pressure of the flowing water helps in rotating a turbine which sits inside the device. This turbine has small blades inside and these blades start rotating when the water hits them. Then this is connected to a motor inside which in turn rotates as well, resulting in generating electricity. Finally, it is connected to a small circuit inside in order to regulate the output voltage.
