Cool man, thanks for sharing, that's an interesting way of stepping up your voltage without using a step-up transformer!

If you've got parts laying around that can step up your voltage, and you don't need the efficiency of a transformer, you might as well use alternators and gearing.

The efficiency is a little less, so make sure your truck alternator isn't overloaded.

100A@12V = 50A@24V-(Losses by alt2 & 3 + pulleys). You can have more voltage but your overall power is the same.

Cheers.

@DavidSunshine867 - Good Job... Some one finally thinking out side the box... I am starting a new project that will be putting some the new ideas to test... Thanks...

if you are doing what I think you are trying to do it wont work. Though props for experimenting. Physics is the most exciting and important subject of them all.

[tsimonin]

@CmdrTobs - Yes and No... Just exploring the idea of over unity... Laws... Physics... all will change as we think out side of the box... Just having fun.... I always think of the days we thought the world was flat....

Awesome dude! Discovering something and then experimenting with it is cool. Not to mention FUNdamental. Thats how I dreamed up my device also. Its draws energy from the universe via local magnetic and gravitational fields and allows the wind to convert it into ac to dc electricity.

What motivation inspired you to look into alternator technology?

[tsimonin]

@derman077 - Just learning better ways to make energy... And I have some very creative ideas I will be working on soon...

That smaller pulley is acutally used in conjuction with a pulley removal tool. Chrylser pulleys from that vintage were pressed on to the front of the alternator. In order to remove the pulley the need for a ring in front of the pulley is to be used by the puller tool.

neat idea friend, im a tinkerer myself, also i love that old dodge van, ive got an old ford van myself,very cool

[jtnoodle]

not positive but i'm pretty sure spinning an alt. without discharging the current it produces will fry the diode(s)

BOO

1hp = 745 watts.

volts * amps = watts

25 hp?

12 * 12 = 144

144 / 745 = 0.193288591HP

did you mean POINT 25 HP? (could see this at 13.8v @ 12A)

still 20K rpm is cute

[n3glv]

@mowrman100 BOO.

12v @ 12A is 144 watts. 1hp = 745 watts.

144 / 745 = 0.193288591hp

if you meant POINT 25 hp, and figure 13.8v it comes out right.

25k rpm is cute though.

[n3glv]

Not sure I see the point of this.

I guess if you had no diode cluster in either alternator and linked the coils together so 3 phase AC power from the driven one fed into the fields of the 'motor' one it would work as in video. Probably need DC to the slip rings to make the rotor a PM magnet. He talks about belts and more alternators? What's the point? Trying NOT to spend money on an inverter? BTW belts are lossy as hell.

Bet this whole mess (3 alternators) would net 10% efficiency. (or less)

[ian5576]

Umm so how exactly is this supposed to lead to overunity?

[fairyheli2]

@Asylumescapee69 what is free is my new motor for my bike, i have a spare alternator.

@mickblock did I claim I was?
