I started this project with thoughts of entering into the power harvesting challenge, but I'm just not feeling the joy - too many other things to work on at the moment.  So, I'm offering the project to anyone who wants to run with it.  I can supply two generators ("5V" "12V" versions) and a coupler that fits a standard shower hose.  I'll ship these parts to you for free, using up to the amount of seed money this project garnered in the community vote of the first round (TBD).  This will probably cover any shipping within the U.S., but international shipping might be a little more.

I think this project has potential, and it's not really an original idea of mine, so I'd hate for it not to be explored during the contest just because I'm off working on something else.

If this interests you at all,  or you have another suggestion for the project, let me know!
