Abstract: A hydroelectric power generator system having a plurality of water wheels affixed to a support structure in a stair step formation. At the top of the support structure is a upper water reservoir with a plurality of spouts each having a shut off valve. At the bottom of the support structure is a water basin. When the valves on the spouts are open, water is flowing downward on the water wheels, which causes the water wheels to rotate. The rotational energy from the water wheels are transferred to rotary shafts via a pulley system. The rotational energy from the rotary shafts are transferred to generators using a ring and pinion gear system. The generators convert the rotational energy into electrical energy that is stored.

Abstract: A working surface incorporates a means for transferring mechanical energy produced by a rotating member of the working surface so that the energy rotates a shaft attached to an alternator that charges a bank of 12 V batteries. The alternator is responsible for converting the mechanical energy being input by the rotating shaft to electrical energy that is fed to the batteries. The batteries transfer the energy into an inverter for use depending upon the required amount. Thereby, backup electrical power may be generated and stored, taking advantage of excess horsepower at cruise provided by a vehicle as well as better utilizing travel time. Additionally, the added cost of ownership and noise of a portable power generator is avoided.
