Thank you, Tesla!
And in a few days, the 100 watt light bulb become illegal.
China will be the only country able to keep the lights on in America.
Ahhhh.... you just gotta love what socialism is doing for Americas.
Going backwards at the speed of light.

Pyle National model: K-240 "dynamo" (slang for this device on a steam locomotive) run max @ 3200rpm (when governor is adjusted correctly). Not sure of the max rated pressure (around 210-230psi), but their rated output is 500w around 34vdc. Pyle of course did make other models of dynamos with higher outputs, and of the same model but with different output voltages. Steam locomotive headlights typically use 250w 34vdc bulbs.

Wow, I was always curious as to how they powered headlamps during the steam era

Whats the rpm?
No end bearing however there is a bearing on the other side of the brushes. The commutator just sticks out past the bearing.

Robkat check 0:11 seconds in don't see a bearing next to the commutator. I think annotations has been added to this video, so you can point it out.
