    Brian has taken the time to really make this a concise educational package, worth every cent. The films are edited very well, it would probably take a several day seminar to see everything you see in this film, and surely that would cost more than $40!

    Interestingly, as well, Brian purposely sets out to not only show you how to do it right, but to demonstrate how varying the plan will effect the build. In other words, he demonstrates the pitfalls; which will serve to save people a lot of money due to screwups / bad modifications.

    Congratulations Brian, you have put out an excellent product, at an excellent price.

    It's a rare thing to find an e-book / DVD that actually gets you building a renewable energy device that delivers results, this is one of few, and the only one I have personally seen on this forum!

    Well worth the money if you are interested in wind, water or human powered generators.
    Hi
    good to hear comments like that

    Still waiting for the slowest UPS around 20 days had gone and still counting for a small dvd to be delivered Hope Brian is reading this
    and keep his promise to me lol

    Dont know if I can use my dc magverter 24.06.11 avi to spin the gen WISHFUL THINKING

      WOW, this Tread haze a second page?

      a second page?!!

      Sorry I did not reply sooner.

      Thanks for the faltering words Kcarring, I did not know that the generators haze this kind of impact by the people.
      It really inspires me to put more on the net to help those who wants to build there own windmill and power there home with it, even if only for a little bit.

      Ill will make you tube movies of certain problems you can encounter by building a energy generating wind turbine.
      I am building on a new site what will give much more information about this subject.dance:

      There will be free building plans of windmills and windmill parts and tips to make really big generators as well.

      I just gotten a web cam I ordered to put a live webcam on the site as well , so everybody can see how the windmills performing even in big storms. Lol
      So, much to do here.

      Hello Totoals I just send you a download link as well, sorry you had to wait so long.
      I am not sending the DVD’s my self , its all printing on demand in the US.

      I don’t know what it is whit the shipment of the DVD’s?
      Some have the DVD in 2 days adders in 20 days??

      The postman of Kcarring was lost in the Canadian woods for 25 days?!!


      Thanks again for all the kind words of all of you.

        Hi Brian, thanks for your quick response TRUE TO YOUR WORDS IN LESS THAN A DAY LOL

        That solves the silly questions made on my projects
        If no Solar , then wind , if no wind then rain,
        If nothing else there then USE YOUR IMAGINATION DREAM TO BUILD

              Normally, I would say don't bother making any kind of generator out of anything, without high powered magnets (Neo's) but given Brian's method, the cost is so low, that it actually is worth a shot.

              I would use very fine wire such that you can keep the coil height to a minimum, OR, plan on it charging a 6V instead of a 12V, and modify accordingly. Another thing you could do, totoalas is PLAN on using a voltage doubler with AC caps, such that while it comes at the cost of current; at least you will have your useful output. The main thing you do not want to do is make a stator that does not get penetrated by whatever field your magnets output.

                    Output information of the generators

                    Hello Brian here

                    Some people did ask me for some output information of the generators.

                    I tested the generators under 4 differed conditions!

                    Got the statistics and the movies of generator 1, 1.2 and 2 on my site now.
                    The rest follows soon.

                        I can also echo K.carring's view. Well done Brian!

                        Some questions:

                        1. Can the disc magnets be replaced with block magnets. Apart from the increased cost being a disadvantage. Will they provide more power if they are of the same grade because of the surface area they cover?

                        2. If the windings were made commercially they would be tighter and more efficient. Have you approached any companies to improve your design / manufacturing processes?

                        3. The only thing I thought that was missing was a location where some of the parts that you used can be brought. For example was it fiber glass resin you used for the stator? Your terminology is slightly foreign to me.

                        4. Please consider making a video with the generator self running using:

                        CT6850, Impact Wrench, Cordless, 18 Volt, Slide-on Battery, 1/2" Drive (U.S.)

                        It starts running off the batteries.

                        Once started, then switch to self power.

                        Your sales will increase 10 fold!

                          Another way Im thinking of rotating the winding just like in a vacuum machine rotor

                          put the winding on the shaft and place neodyne disc magnets on top of the coils one winding acts as motor winding and the rest for pick up to generate power

                            You can increase power considerably with this design by wrapping the coil with a thin plastic layer ( such as the plastic "roll up sleds" ) then winding an iron wire over the top ( mechanics wire - fence wire - iron wire on rolls). this will help complete the magnetic path through the coils. It will induce a small amount of drag because you are magnetizing and demagnetizing sections of the iron wire but it is minimal in comparison to the output increase.

                            I've built a multitude of radial air core alternators, dual rotor axial flux machines and various silicon core machines. (I've designed and built literally thousands of them ). The best performers are the ones where the magnetic flux path is completed.

                            Brian's design is creatively unique with the novice and not so well equipped builder in mind. I applaud you for your creative approach to a simple alternator ! Well done sir !

                              Need some clarification

                              I'd like to buy this video but I have several question first.
                              If I understand correctly this generator can be built with ordinary parts, tools and skills. Correct?
                              What makes this generator different from a car alternator? I understand the attraction of DYI but right now I'm more interested in output or work performed.
                              Can this generator be used also as a motor?
                              I'd also be interested in watts input vs watts output. I saw the video with the drill but am wondering how much input produces how much output.
                              And is the video and parts and diagram description enough for a novice such as myself to build it.
                              I was also wondering what applications this generator can be used in.
                              Thanks, I appreciate any answers you care to provide.

                                hello

                                Hello We. Te. People

                                A Old p4 duo core , onboard everything. Studio MX2004 30days trial version. And word for spelling control.?
                                And tutorials from Learn web design and development online free at DevelopPHP this guy is the best!

                                Why?



                                Hello Soundiceuk

                                There is no iron in the generators so you can put as much magnets in the rotor as you want, disk or blocks dos not matter.
                                How more magnetic energy how higher the output of the generator, but maybe you should use a water cooling for the generator.

                                I am still working on the site, have to do the links. I know
                                The polyether whit a high chemical resistance what sticks to PVC is often the same polyether they use for swimming pools.

                                I tried to self power a power drill with the generator, but I am sorry it is not a over unity devise.

                                But I placed a new movie on my movie page ( Generator-3 power drill test)
                                Ps I fried my power drill eventually. I don’t recoment this test. Lol

                                Hoop you like it?


                                Totoalas

                                You are on the right way with your thinking.




                                Hello Clueless

                                You can make these generators easily, if you can paint your house or fix a door you can make these generators.

                                A car alternator is mostly 1 size and need high rpm.
                                My Generators you can make in all sizes and depending which wire you choose high volts or high amps by a certain rpm, So you can make a generator specific for a certain job.

                                I did not try it as a motor yet, but I will!
