Thanks, but I was really wanting to produce an 'in-river' portable water generator, kind of similar to Enomad's 'Estream'. I was looking at maybe using a bilge pump as a generator...

Hi there

So for a university project i'm wanting to produce a working prototype of a portable hydro kinetic turbine. For this I need a small waterproof generator / gearbox. The generator can be ether AC or DC and the gearbox should be a ratio of around 1:10. I'm struggling to find a component which is fully sealed. Is it better to attempt sealing / waterproofing a component my self?

Many Thanks
