   Is it correct to summarize this project as experiments to reclaim some   
   of the grid energy you expend to filter your pool water?   
      
   Your past explanations have seemed to imply that the installation is a   
   net Source of power rather than tests of how efficiently its   
   individual components can recapture energy that ultimately comes from   
   the grid in this case, but -could- be driven by natural flows if you   
   weren't in flat Florida.
