  • Belts or chains slow it down a lot try gears which are better or try to attaching the motor on the bottom with the original shaft instead. which rotates better and without any lost in gearing as well. Two better ways to go than the belts and the noise that go with it.

  • @Mrinfoone that is true, since then, i have been experimenting with direct drive only.

  • That's cool how the generator/motor thing starts turning BEFORE the gearing system.

  • @johnnnyreb51, that was part of my beginig testing and seting up the pully correctly. the idea here is the setup ratio.

  • nice video. I am hoping to build a VAWT and was going to attach it directly to the motor. But after seeing your videos a pulley system would be a lot better. Where did you get you pulleys from ? thanks

  • waheex, i bought the pullies from TSC stores.

    the lift vawt is a better and more effecient system.

  • Lol...an honest instructional, well done. Every vid I've seen show mostly the blade and turbine structure, not the working, generator and gearing bits. Finally you may have started a trend. thanks!!

  • OK May be just a little cometary would be nice.

see all
