NOW TAKE THE ROTOR OFF - AND YOU WILL GET AN EVEN BETTER FREE RUN SPEED - SHOULD BE ABOUT 3600 RPM - IT HAS NO USE AT ALL BUT IS SOUNDS COOLER

Yes, you are correct, take the rotor off... This then becomes a first baseline.

In my case the motor sans rotor, runs on 80.5 volts @ .57 amps = 46 watts.(3569 rpm)
Now I know that the rotor uses 50 watts to run... if I changed rotors then I would have a baseline
to know IF the new rotor used more or less.You could do the same thing... how much does the
open barrow rotor use? how much does the windage cost?  how much does the #2 rotor use?

Incidentally, it also points out that the Ryobi, running with no load on line voltage, is not that efficient.
On 117 volts it uses .92 amps, wow, 107 watts! (no rotor! 3580 rpm)

Butt Thane, this first baseline is only of use if you were comparing rotors. To compare coil/cores
it is most useful to put the baseline at having the rotor on the motor. Then you don't have to make
up stories... you said on list that the new rotor would barely get to 1000 rpm in CA, Owen told me
the same thing, why then say that it did run fine but then change the scene to Ottawa ... with the
new core material?  Here is something we would all be interested in... what is the core drag
reduction with the new core material? Grab yourself a proper baseline and tell us!

At least tell us the specs on the new material... I remember you saying you were going to send
me some... that it was in a box all ready to ship....

Hi,

I_ron is not going to marry you, thane, if you bare your teeth like this

YOU ARE RIGHT!
SO GO AHEAD AND DO IT?

Sure, just send me your tools, your workshop, your motor and rotor and measuring equipment. Oh, and don't forget the coils/cores.
Cheers

Sounds a bit sleazebagish. If anyone had experimentation tools we would be visiting other galaxies by now. Either get off that dildo you "accidentally" sat on and shut your trap or start building a lab.
