I'm in Nova Scotia and I got my own small wood lot, and I'd like to do something to use the naturally fallen wood. Would be nice if I could generate electrici...

@NOLIMIT69NOLIMIT2000 You're wrong. I have the spec sheet on the alternator's RPM power curve and its working perfectly. The alternator is producing approx 150 amps DC in this video, just as I had planned.

  Smart fellow. If I didn't know better that is Dresden Row between Spring Garden Rd, and Sackville St, in Halifax Nova Scotia. I think he hits the nail right on the head. Hey buddy you should be the next Premier of Newfoundland...we need another guy like you...we miss the first one we had.

Home Made Alternator Generator

javed1669 • 21,302 views

AlternativePowerMan commented:

The first and perhaps main thing is it depends on the alternator. Mine is a 'one-wire' alternator. The 'one-wire' post goes to the + battery terminal, and the alternator chassis goes to the - battery terminal.

@AlternativePowerMan I was going to use a thermal blanket. I've seen around here where there is no snow above a septic tank, so I figure a good thermal blanket would go a long way.

About this user

Just a guy who likes to tinker around. Very interested in green power, from wind, micro-hydro, solar, using various mechanics such as Archimedes screws, Sterling and Rankine Cycle engines, etc, as well as high-efficiency wood fuel systems using wood from sustainable harvesting practices.

I made the very ungreen generator just for fun, and for emergency use only.

Interests

I am interested in learning why some of the 'free energy' folks delete my pointed questions? Espescially those that claim to be trying to benefit mankind. If what you have is genuinely real then simply answer my questions and post for all to read. If they were genuine they would have found a way by now to get the overunity machine into mass population. Keep your money and your mind intact folks.
