Totally endless but it violates the laws of physical science. I've got a good one that actually works. Did you know that if you have a barbed wire fence that runs parallel to a power line that you can actually tap power off of it by merely insulating the strands from the fenceposts, grounding the far end of the run and Bingo - a nice amount of free electricity. While you can't run an entire house off of this 24 hours a day (unless you have a very long fence) you can certainly rectify that voltage and have it charge up your batteries that are also fed by your windmill &/or solar cells.
