new magnetic motor goes 2000 rpm without load 1000 rpm with load

[magnacoaster]

i made some new parts today that have helped with the power i have other things in my life as well i have to do all day to !

i will be getting some supplies this week and hope to work more on the weekend

i was in and got my rotor cut for the new gen and the ring for the windings
i went and chatted and found kick ass dieods that will take 200 amps each leg
so it can handle 600 amps @ 12 volts.

as i plan to use a setup i saw on the net and it got 3 kw out going to use there plans
i increased the amount of mass ont he flywheel and it made the motor run faster but i need to get some lead so i can add mor onto thew back end.

as well i was in the wind shop and looked at a battery dump i have a old apc here that can handle 50 amps  of output  @ 14 vols input (they were going to pitch it as the batterys were all dead)

so i need 64 magnets some copper or mumetal for cores and a milling machine for 6 hours oh and best of all i need 800 bucks to put it all in and have it run

thank god for paydays

Thats the problem with this OU stuff it really needs more time and money than most of us are able to give.

Richard, "Princess Auto" in Kitchener has clamp-on meters. I just bought one yesterday. The meters are no longer on sale, but since they have so many, if you ask nicely, they will sell them at the sale price of $18.88 CDN+taxes.

I know that your present design only involves DC currents, so a clamp-on meter won't be of any use. However the windmill generator that you are making produces AC current, and a clamp-on meter might come in handy when you are testing it.

How is the windmill generator project coming along?

well its been a long weekend my arms are sore and i have the 10 windings done
i got the material for the backplates and got all the holes in and have all the windings mounted.

i am changing all the plates that hold the motor today should be able to
have it up and running by the morning as i have to run out tonight
so i may have to pull a allnighter to get it done


will make a winder in the morning so i can wind pretty coils the .010  wire
required 150 windings per coil with 10 coils and i got a gm rectifier @ 180 amps 
12 volts.

will take pictures and keep you posted

well i have a few coils built and my arms are sore here is a picture of what we are making now
