    The thing it goes through generates some current
    i thought you already had a generator
    I need to be able to use a small generator to do it.
    or is your doohicky the gen. that you where referring to?
    Then there's always the trick of digging a hole and using some black plastic bag over it with a rock in the center over a cup. All it takes is the effort to dig the hole.
    dont forget a source of moisture(gras,non-potable water,urine...)

        maby he wants to route the output to the input and make a bomb.... a really big bomb how a bucket fits into all of this i do not know, but what i do know is that it must be evil

        seriously, just tell us what you are trying to do
        As society and the problems that face it become more and more complex and machines become more and more intelligent, people will let machines make more of their decisions for them, simply because machine-made decisions will bring better results than man-made ones. Eventually a stage may be reached at which the decisions necessary to keep the system running will be so complex that human beings will be incapable of making them intelligently. At that stage the machines will be in effective control. People won't be able to just turn the machines off, because they will be so dependent on them that turning them off would amount to suicide

        sometimes I just freaking hate people. which means the next day I will love them for the sake of balance, but right now I will just concentrate on the hating. Hate hate hate. Blaaaarg! ;)

        turborev - with ai like this, if it controlled any more than a paddle, it would kill you and everyone you care about. ;)

                Here we go, I got the site I saw it on. http://amasci.com/emotor/ikelv.html Not perpetual motion, but possibly goes for a long time. The heat would be added at the bottom, and removed at the top- maybe use the heat from the top to go to the bottom. You could suck a pretty good bit of current out of it if you had one really big, maybe three stories. By boiling the water I use atmospheric pressure to lift it. Pumps would be good for going like a few feet, but once you get high up its harder for the pump to work. With the boiling idea at some point you use less energy to boil the water than to pump it really high. Sorry I didnt have the site sooner, I just couldnt really explain it on my own and didnt realized I had bookmarked it.

                    Ditch the idea of a heater, either submerged or stovetop type. They draw a lot more current than the microamps this talks about, even when stepped down from the 'high volts' this outputs.

                        I think you're on the topc of an "waterdrop electrostatic generator". I have a few links that explain it a little more with better pictures. If you've never seen one in action, it's freaking cool.

                        These are all links to websites I've found becuse I was once interested in building one myself.

                        Is this even close to what you're talking about?

                            Well...why not use a very simple design? If i read this right you are looking for the most efficient way to move water around...why not get an air pump and pump one of of the tube, and create a syphon. I believe that would be very efficient, but i probably have the wrong idea.
