Dear Bryan!!! Thank you very much for your tips and advice I wanna thank also to Tom and of course I´m going to check all of those things,I haven´t done yet...
well in some ways the number of magnets do matter. 1- magnet passes per minute vs rpm. if I have a 4 magnet rotor spinning at 300 rpm I get 300x4 = 1200 mag...
Hi Tom! Thanks for the reply!! I understand the point of having more magnets very well because I know the theory about wind generators and I also have built...
no your magnets are not too far apart, if you have a standar 1 inch wide magnet, you can place them 3 widths apart so 3 inches. I used a compass and laid out...
Marcus That is exactly right Put 2 magnets N to N and what happens they push away from each other. There is a problem when using a compass KEEP it AWAY from...

G'Day Marcus When I connect my SSG immediately the magnet is attracted to the coil when it is running it appears to reverse when past the magnet\ Regards I an...
Hi Guys!!! All of you are really good!!!Thanks for the help!!! Finally I have the time to make the measurements that Tom told me to but I have a question...Can...
digital is fine, see if you can find someone with an analog meter, to compare with. I got my analog meter from a thrift store for 50 cents. you will be in the...
