A method of generating electricity comprising:

• adapting a pump shaft to include an attaching structure;
• attaching a magneto to the attaching structure;
• and
• configuring the magneto to generate electricity when the pump shaft rotates.

A hydraulic pump comprising:

• a means for transmitting mechanical power configured to rotate and operate the hydraulic pump thereby;
• a means for generating electrical power operatively connected to the means for transmitting mechanical power;
• means for transmitting electrical power extending from the means for generating electrical power to a power outlet to provide electricity generated by the means for generating electrical power to the power outlet;
• and
• a hydraulic pump housing enclosing both the hydraulic pump and the means for generating electrical power.
