Help! i have a small piece of circuit board that takes 5v and it goes to a little transformers that output 110vAC, I hook up a rectifier to it and im still getting AC instead of DC. what im I doing wrong? thanks!!
you could probably increase the rpm by putting a bigger "gear" on the steam engine and keeping the stepper motor"s gear the same size but it would increase the power needed to spin the wheel so my idea is a bit sketchy... feel free to try but i probably guessed right about the power...
I never measured the AC side of the circuit. But all the rectifier does is flip the negative side of the AC wave up to the positive, creating DC current. There will be a slight loss of current in going through the diodes, since they aren't 100% efficient.

Is the output higher than the input ??
Looks to me that the investment is way high than the input Jus let me Know
