THIS IS A VIDEO TO SHOW THOSE WHO DONT WANT TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY FOR THE BIG SYSTEMS OUT THERE. THE BLACK UNIT IN THE BACK GROUND IS THE ONE THAT IM MAKING FOR A FRIEND WHO WILL USE IT WITH GREAT GLADNESS. HIS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS ALMOST COMPLETELY DESTROYED BY LIGHTENING. IT WOULD COST TOO MUCH FOR REPAIRS AND NEW DEPOSITS AND OLD BILL TO RECONNECT, ESPECIALY WITH REPAIRS FOR A NEW SERVICE BOX AND UPDATING TO A BREAKER SYSTEM AND THE WIRES DESTROYED IN THE HOUSE. ALTHOUGH THIS UNIT WILL NOT NORMALLY SUPPLY A NORMAL HOUSE HOLD IT WILL ALLOW HIM TO HAVE LIGHTS , RADIO, TV , CELLPHONE CHARGING, AND A FEW MORE THINGS BUT NOT ALL AT ONCE OR CONSTANTLY. BUT 20 DOLLARS A DAY FOR GAS IN A GENERATOR IS NOT AN OPTION EITHER. A BAG OF ICE, AND A COOLER IS. WE ARE MAKING A SOLAR HOT WATER HEATER AS WELL. BY 1:00 PM HE WILL HAVE ENOUGH WATER TO DO DISHES AND GET A NICE HOT SHOWER. THEN RELAX BY THE TV OR RADIO FOR A FEW HOURS ON STORED ENERGY. THEN GO TO SLEEP WITH A SMILE. IF HE GETS UP IN THE NIGHT HE CAN JUST TURN ON THE LIGHT. AND ITS ALL FREE. I HAVE ONE CONFESSION TO MAKE ABOUT THE ONE IN THE FIRST VIDEO THAT EVERYONE HAS COMPLEMENTED ON FROM THE BEGINNING. THAT IS , THAT THE ONE THAT IS IN THE VIDEO IS THE 7th OR 8th ONE I DID. I DID IT FOR SOMEONE ELSE BUT I DESTROYED ONE OF THE COIL SETS IN IT BY PULLING ON THE WIRES TO HARD WHILE I WAS RETHREADING THE WIRES TO COME OUT THE OTHER SIDE. BUT THE 12 VOLT SYSTEM INSTEAD OF 24 VOLT SYSTEM WILL NOT SLOW THE BLADES DOWN WHEN UNDER A LOAD SO IT PERFORMS AT ITS LOWERED MAXIMUM VOLTAGE MOST OF THE TIME. IT SEEMS TO KEEP MY SHOP RADIO AND FLOURESENT LIGHT GOING AS MUCH AS I NEED IT TO EXCEPT FOR WHEN IT RAINS AND THE WIND DOESNT BLOW FOR A FEW DAYS. ONE OF THE CEILING FAN MOTORS I HAVE IN THE SHOP WILL REPLACE THE ORIGIONAL U2B DEBUTED SPECIAL WITH MORE MAGNETS AND TWICE THE COILS FOR MORE OUTPUT. THE BLACK ONE IS CRANKING OUT 5 TIMES THE POWER ALREADY, IM JELOUS. AND IT COGS REAL HARD. AND WHEN YOU SHORT THE WIRES IT GETS REAL HARD TO TURN. THAT IS A GOOD TEST OF EFFICIENCY. ANY DC OR AC PERMANENT MAGNET MOTOR THAT YOU CAN SHORT THE WIRES OUT ON AND IT DOESNT WANT TO TURN IS A DARNED GOOD WIND TURBINE. IF WE ADD ANOTHER SET OF MAGNETS TO HIS IT WILL DUOBLE THE VOLTAGE AND WE WILL HAVE TO GO TO A HIGHER VOLTAGE BATTERY BANK WHICH IS GOOD SEEING AS THE COILS CAN ONLY PUT OUT 1 AMP PER SET. THERE ARE 2 SETS SO 2 AMP TIMES 48 VOLTS = 100 WATTS SO IF WE ADD THE MAGS IT WILL BE A 200 WATT UNIT WITHOUT HEATING UP THE WIRES BUT WE WILL HAVE TO GET 7 OR 8 BATTERIES. OR AT LEAST 4 OR 5 . TIME WILL TELL. MUDD

i VE SAID IT BEFORE …
i VE SAID IT BEFORE , THAT IS A GOOD SIGN. ITS NOT MURPHY S’ LAW ITS JUST THAT THE WIND KNOWS THAT THERE’ NO USE IN TRYING TO TEAR IT UP NOW. IT MUST BE A GOOD MACHINE. MUDDd
does this work with …
does this work with box fans or just ceiling?
Good job Scott. I …
Good job Scott. I have my experimental VAWT together for testing but (of course) no wind here now. Looking forward to the next one. DS
great stuff Scott, …
great stuff Scott, BUt the fan motors i have are like that black one in your vid can i use it still or no. WEST COAST DOUG LATER………..cant wait for part 3
thanks it was a lot …
thanks it was a lot of work with the rest of the vids comming. they will be out real soon. MUDD
Yup You SURE CAN . …
Yup You SURE CAN . send me the pictures of it. what you will wind up doing is the same thing that i did with the one in the air. curl some steel banding that is wide enough to touch the bottom and the top from the inside. then place your magnets on the steel banding. or do like team leader did. he spent time grinding the induction ring to fit the mags. his is kickin so i hear. check your mail and send me the pictures for exact details of what to do next. the next vid is almost done too. mudd
Ive been working on …
Ive been working on all of them at the same time to get the details in order. but I found out that focusing one one step at a time is faster. all of them are almost finnished. all i have to do is focus on the next one and it will be finnished tonite. Working on one thing at a time was never easy for me. ill show the completed inside for you. MUDD
Great info, so …
Great info, so informative. One question, actually 2: Did you say the diodes are wired in parallel? How is that accomplished? And the batteries, if wires have more than 50 watts each, wire in series? If the wires have less, then wire in parallel or not? Also, I can’t find vid #3. Thank you so much! 5 stars!
great video hope …
great video hope your wind turbine works great
yYOU COULD NOT FIND …
yYOU COULD NOT FIND VID 3 BECAUSE I JUST PUT VID 2 UP TODAY. VID THREE IS TONIGHT I HOPE. NO NOT QUITE ,,, THE DIODE BRIDGES ARE WIRED IN PARALLEL FOR LOWER VOLTS AND MORE AMPS, AND THE BRIDGES ARE WIRED IN SERIES FOR MORE VOLTS AND LESS AMPS. .. DEPENDING ON YOUR BATTERY BANK AND YOUR RIG OUTPUT. MUDDd
There is a …
There is a conversion for box fans . but the concept due to the rotors and stators being opposite of designs , it is a lot different. that would take a lathe or milling…..but there is a way to do it at home with minimal tools and i will get into that in about a month.
Thanks for the comment . MUDD
I’m surprise that …
I’m surprise that coil 1 and coil 2 have the same frequency. Since they are for different speeds, I thought one would have more cycles per rev.
Oh ya , its an easy …
Oh ya , its an easy picture to illistrate. there are the same amout of coil possitions on each of the coil sets. and they all fire the same amount of times per revoluion. so if there is 14 coils per set , that would mean 2 coils pass the same magnet for a full cycle of pos and neg. so that means 7 cycles per revolution. So at 10 RPM you would get 70Hz on each set. after rectification you would have a ripple of 140Hz and 280 when added together.
mudd
the frequency of …
the frequency of the rectified output would only be in a dc ripple form that is a weak ripple at that.
mudd
question about …
question about magnets, are all rare earth
magnets made of Neodymium can you
explain how to postion magnets relative to the coil winding direction again… it not
so clear to me….also doubling up magnets
OK lets look at the …
OK lets look at the coils on the outside only. there are 2 pieces of metal going into each coil. this is one polarity position. the next 2 are going into the next coil. this position is of the opposite polarity. the next videos are almost finnished. they will show this more clearly. i will probably upload them tonight. hit the subscription page. if you need more help, feel free to send a message and ask any and all you want or need to.
mudd
YES rare earth …
YES rare earth magnets are neodymium iron boron. and the new videos are out now . i hope paet 7 answers it for you . if not let me know. mudd
Hello Every one , …
Hello Every one , Sorry for the delay on posted questions and answers. I have been realy busy lately. but I will be putting out some more vids and getting back into the swing of things. I love doing this and have missed it much. IM BACK!!!!!

hey, mudd
i got a …
hey, mudd
i got a question what size of magnets u using plz in milimeters ^^ magnets that can hold 6.4kg is to mutch ?
1.27cm x .35cm. I …
1.27cm x .35cm. I believe that is close.
i could use any thing that fits and closes the gap a little tighter, as long as it is under 3 cm wide.

well done:)
well done:)
