Uhhh...how about the Jack Rabbit itself?  That's the only "drop in the creek"
hydro unit I'm aware of.  You looking for something bigger?  Drop in two or
three.  A word of warning however, with the 24v units you'd better have 8 mph or
faster flows.  We've found they don't put out much of anything at slower speeds.
The 12v units seem to work better.
