Output Coils

Hi everyone.

I am new to all this and have been doing research over the last week. One thing I am stuck on is output coils for something like the Adams motor. I have no idea what sort of coil to make, even as to what the voltage and amperage I would get from a output coil. What wire would you use on a output coil, how many winds etc etc. Would you get more current if you used heavier wire? I can understand that the speed the wheel is turning would have a big effect.

Thanks

Nathan

@Nathan,

Evey loop, or full turn of wire adds a volt to the power. A coil of thin wire and many turns genrates higher voltage then a coil of thicker wire and fewer turns. The thicker wire generates higher amperage. Try 26 or 28 gauge. That's whatAdamsused

Thank you. Now I have a starting point. Im guessing I wont know what voltage I will get until i start experimenting? I need a circuit to change the voltage down to 12v. Any ideas?

@Nathanj99,

A 120volt to 12volt, or 220volt to 12volt transformer can help step the voltage down along with a rectifier for another -.7 volts at the end. The charging voltage for a 12 volt battery should be around 14 volts. Take a voltage Reading off the output coil with a DMM before you select a transformer.

Thanks synchro1. I have been looking at the circuit diagrams for the bendini engine. There is a 12v drive battery and a 12v charge battery. There is no transformer etc. so how do the people who make these know they are getting a 12-14 volt output to charge the battery and not some silly voltage that will fry the battery??
