  • whats this ment to be?

  • ....my bad. You said 20 gauge 65 feet each side. Sorry.

    Anyways, you may want to try much longer and smaller gauge wire and it will run much longer and draw less current. It will run slower and require more voltage, but the kicker is it will require much much less current to run. I've gotten mine down to 4 milliamps at 36 volts. If mine could handle the speed I bet less than 1mA is possible with a high enough voltage. I'm going to shoot for 6000 wraps on my next one.

  • How long did yours run, and how many winds of wire did you use? If you don't know how may wraps, what's the gauge of the wire and how many feet? Mine is a smaller model (4" diameter) with 3000 feet(2950 winds)of 30 gauge wire. Mine is running off of three 9v batteries in series and works very well.
