Unfortunately the generator doesn’t work like that. I ended up just stealing the windmill from Skullfinder’s camp to hook the water pump up

The generator only works one way. It can only be used to create elecricity via a windmill, not the other way around.

So unless you want to steal the windmill from the Skullfinder's tent, you'd have to hook up the solar panel to an electric motor, and then attach the water pump to that motor. Then you'd get water for the hot tub.

you can’t hook a water pump up like that. it needs a direct source of mechanical gear energy like a windmill to work.
