lol! You could make up a right creative story as to what it does, and see who believes you.

You could say it's a top secret FUEL CELL project you're involved in OR a new technology for brewing Irish beer. :drinkers:

youre attempting to develope perpetual motion, and if they dont believe you, tell them its actually your computer, but if the DO believe you, then say something like, yeah, its like a generator, and once its started, the hydrenoid acts like a buffer to keep the sullenoid charged which powers back the hydrenoid again, but it still needs some work getting totally efficient :mrgreen:

if they believe it was perpetual motion, they just hear the big words anyway and dont pay attention to what youre actually saying

I've even go so far as to pull the side panel to show them the parts and then they see the tubing, pumps and radiators and they say no way you're cooling a computer that way.......... :shock: Then they ask what is it really......... :lol:

I just keep telling them that just a simple ole computer, then I let them work at my desk a little to prove it.

Sometimes I feel like the local library.......... :mrgreen:

Folks do job searches, come over to look up camper and boat parts, all your typical red neck sort of thing.

There fora while I was taking old domated computers and cleaning them up and then giving them to families with school kids just so they could do school work. But then I kept getting calls all the time to come fix their internet (dialup) or the kids got a virus or something, boy did that get to be a pain in the butt after a while, so much for being a nice guy I guess.

I think my P180 thread is second, but it's about to be overtaken by methious' swamp thing rig. I should get updating my case and hence the thread if i want to stay ahead :P

Never thought the thread would draw much attention, now I get emails about it. Working out pretty good with that setup so far, looking at modding my pump, or getting a Petra top pre done. Doing the mosfets tomorrow.

That's what I figured Bio, easier, more durable, safer. Be a while before I need one any way. Case I can fit all this stuff in is more important.

This rig is something to be proud of. I finally got to view the pictures over the weekend (most file hosing sites are blocked here at work), and I must say, I am extremely jealous! I haven't the time or money to do anything like this, and that is why I have upgraded a POS dell

Congrats to you!
