Love the use of the chair ... Cool creativity ... Thanks for sharing 👌

A small wind generator to put on the back of a van would be awesome to see.

i like to see more of your work..good job

Nice on mate. Thanks for uploading

if you put a big gear on the central rotating pole. that goes to multiple smaller gears. you wouldn't only make the magnets rotate faster. but also have room for up to 10 times more magnets. depending on the size of the first gear. just something I thought about.

I wish you made more videos, kurt! you are one of my absolute favourite youtubers of all time!

Well my friend. That was an awesome video. I have also done a ceiling fan conversion and the playlist is on my channel. I love the idea of using microwave oven transformer with the I removed. I never thought of that at all. I am looking forward to your next video my good friend. Whatever it is. Maybe some form of earth power using the ground itself and not earth in cups. Have a great day my good friend.

you have the best youtube channel i've ever found on youtube! You and I have the same interests!

i like the how you put this together low tech but very good

Great stuff! It would be interesting to see how one can use this to charge up batteries or generate power for practical use of electricity generated. For examplehowto wire up an outlet to run an appliance or maybe a breaker box for off grid living.

Oh my gosh, you finally uploaded another video! 😁 Great video

nice, can you rejuvenate old lead acid deep cycle batteries?

Welcome back!

This would be a good idea to power the ceiling fan in the patio to lower the the temperature a little bit so I don't have to use electricity there.

Would you run into an issue with the bearings? I'm not familiar with bearing structure on something like this, but being that ceiling fans are designed for horizontal operation and not vertical placement, it seems possible that it might not function efficiently.

i havent seen a diy wind turbine using old fan to be efficient and worth the project..i guess putting an extra panel and battery is more cost effective

Where do you get all that wonderful junk?

I was referring that when the whole body moves around, then what stops the wire from knotting up?

You need to take this into consideration yes. On average you can count on the fact that the generator will spin as much in one direction as it will in the other. This means you will probably not have to bother with sliding contacts (more brushes). Your wires will need to be long enough though to allow for a few full rotations.

heya kurt! cool video bro. forgive my noobness but any chance of a video with a little more detail on the diodes etc used to help charge batteries etc. i have been playing with home made fans and water rams but with no electrical knowledge the next step is a little tricky at first. I've been having trouble finding such noob style vids. help us out? awesome vid dude. i look forward to seeing more of urs.

can you make wood smoke setup to run a gas engine ?

Hi, great videos. I have a petrol driven 240volt generator. The petrol motor was stolen but I still have the generator, which I am planning to attach to a home made pelton wheel. I appreciate that I need above 1000 rpm to make this work. That shold not be a problem. What I would like to know is what stops this generator from burnng itself out when there is no load drawing off the electricity. I shall be grateful to know what I need to do to get this working safely. Robert Denton

Hello , nice video ! can we use a car fan motor to have better volts ?

Can you try to power your wind generator using a sterling engine? maybe you could use a Fresnel lens to create the thermal differences to power the Sterling which can power the wind generator.. Use the sun when the wind isn't blowing... maybe too much work.. Just an Idea

Can i use 600w ups transformer ?

can you connect that on a solar charge controller as substitute in case solar panel is not charging well?

Yeah, another great video.

Washing machine motor to wind generator? Could you try that or tell us why it won't work. People in Europe have been doing it with some success for hydro. I was hoping to find someone who has done it with wind but I can't. These have many coils and perm magnets. Thanks.

A lawnmower motor isn't exactly low RPM. You need one with both low RPM as well as high power input. This will give you high power output at typical wind speeds.

Blades are red cause the wind generator defended against an electrical company's employee?

was that a lawnmower starter motor, or one from an electric mower?

conductive turntable to allow 360' rotation?

Yeah here in Mountain Brook Alabama we have no power and the generator doesn’t work at the moment not sure why worked in the past but anyway I decided to go for a walk and found a in perfectly good condition ceiling fan from hunter o I told my dad about the id a and how I found it and that we could use it for situations like this and he said no I mean come on one always have seen these on KZread or the internet and have never done this plus finding a ceiling fan on the street here seems pretty rare

i'm lucky i guess cause i can get tons of microwave ovens tons of neodime magnets, tons of ac and dc motors all kind of sizes, tons and tons all kind of scrap DAILY! but i dont have the imagination or the knowledge to do something usefull.. lol

also, a few more items that are food for thought. First, if the bloody thing was a motor to start with, you should not need to add magnets. Think about it. When you removed the rotor - or stator, depending upon which way you view it and which part you hold stationary - look, you either removed magnets that were already there...think about it...or you removed coils that were excited either by supply electricity or a very small portion of generated electricity or by electromagnetic induction. THINK about it. Yes, I'll do a video myself, but you're already way ahead of the game, I can't even afford a web cam right now. And, yes, there are generators that use what are called excited windings; look up "self-excited shunt-wound DC generator " on wikipedia. So, anyone reading this who does not have magnets and who doesn't have a welder - and even if you don't have a soldering gun, just use wire-nuts - there is always a way to use a motor as a generator without throwing valuable components away, and having to buy magnets, and having to buy either a welder or a soldering gun. The desire for wind-generated power is probably causing an uptick in consumerism of welders and soldering guns as I write. Second, or third from my first post below, criminey, just like the other poster will you please learn to solder correctly for Heaven's sake? Another bloody dabber. It's not a glue-gun, mate, it's a soldering gun. Please see my comment other video for clear instructions on how to solder.

How do you keep the wiring from knotting up after so many revolutions of the turbine?

The magnets are on the part that rotates. The wires stay in the same place.

@juliusfucik4011

Obviously the turning of the generator into the wind is meant. In practice, the wires do not turn up more than a few times in one direction before the wind turns such that it unwindes again. You simply account for it by using longer wires. No need for brushes or sliding contacts at the generator base.

You need to reconsider the safety of using your homemade wind generator made from an old ceiling fan.

is there a way to store the energy besides just batteries? Like in car audio, doesn't a capacitor store the energy or does it not store it while it's off? Does something like a generator store it, or basically will just need batteries, huh? I better learn how to build batteries, now....

@AmazGraz

Capacitors store a charge, but it is super quickly depleted. If someone had a capacitor that was large as a car then the power would last for a while. However, I recently read that someone has invented a new high density capacitor that stores more energy in a smaller space. Lots more. I wish I had bookmarked it but I didn't. I don't know how long it will be before we hear anything more about it.

good work, but your vision is too limited. Why would you imitate the horizontal bladed turbines that kill birds and present a hazard to everyone around when they come apart from wind or age? I would encourage you to do the same idea but in a vertical format that is safe. Oh, alright, I'll do it, but it's going to take me awhile to get it all together, you could do it next week. Love to see you rise up a bit in consciousness, mate.
