    Gee, since nobody likes me hear, I need an ego boost...

    The weight of the head is a function of the length of the pipe and the pipe diameter. Can he put pipes or sticks inside the pipe to occupy space to reduce the effective diameter of the pipe? They do not have to run the big generator 24/7 to get enough water for the colony, it seems they just have to use it because it is the only thing with enough power. My guess, it is over engineered. Shrink the head Datu...

    just a guess...

    We have this ( ).... Maybe we can turn it into this (o) and reduce the amount of power required
    Lol
