MY LENZ 2 WINGS!!!.flv

Soooo,
Finely..... These are my Lenz 2 wings!!
Since this video i`ve had to spray them matt black to stop the sun reflecting from them, it was one big disco in my neighbourhood!!
I have to say these wings don`t make a sound!!!

Soon i`ll begin with the stator and hopefully more video`s...

wings look great. If you have a problem with wobble you can probably extend the pole up past the wings far enough to attach a few guy wires. If it's high enough the wire should clear the wing tops. It will run slower with the alternator under load. Is that a 4 ft. X 3 ft. ?

Hi There,

Thanx for tip,

This one measure`s 100cm high x 85cm diameter. I`ve made the altenator and now waiting desperately for my tax return so the magnets can be orderd!

You can things make it a lot easier. If you just attach directly to the bottom to the spinning pole a regular 24 v dc motor and while it spins produces your required electricity instead of going by making the vawt and can be easily be removed for replacement or repairs. But its up to you pick..this just another idea too consider.

@atrelho

Thanks!! Only in a deal that i struck with my local council i had to make the wings only 40cm high!!

I made the changes and mounted them on top of a cieling with 36 of the magnets that i ordererd and came back the wrong size (mini lenz magnets).

And it works very wel only the council won`t let me put it on the roof....Aarggggg!!!!!!!!!!1

use a spindel from axle alot better!

Looks Awesome. I built a Lenz 2 a few years ago. Wobble and vibration caused me the most grief. Eventually the bearings wore enough that the the top rotor started cutting into the stator. It's down now and I'm rethinking the whole bearing thing.

You wings look Great! Keep the videos coming as you progress. Thanks.

do you get interference that close to the building?

you need support brackets on the top......
