It's about time someone mentions this information. Thanks for your time and help

At 3:40 he states: " ... because we can't generate more power than what is available." - Well, thanks a lot man. You've just completely burst my bubble. I really don't know if life is worth living anymore. 😃

Thanks Michael, this is exactly the kind of information I was looking for and explained the exact way it should be, great job

thanks so much for sharing, God Bless !! love that mountain background also!

Excellent video... Cheers Michael!

Thank you. These are rare here in the US. I found a free one a few days ago :)

Yes a high quality demo vid for a change! New Zealand is a beautiful place with a good history of environmental protection stewardship. Keep up the good work!

Excellent explanation! Thanks very much - Now off to the tip to hunt down an old F&P Smart drive :)

Excellent. Thanks

great video!

I loved our old F&P washer.

Great video. I didn't want it toy end. Good clear info. I have an old water pumping type windmill I would like to convert to generate electricity. I think this motor may be a good answer for my generatior. Thanks

great info thanks

great info'.. thanks!

Please explain decoging and how it is achieved in the design Nice Job

Thank you 👍

👍subbed Good ol Kiwis... Most informative introduction vid for these motors.

thanks

Hello Michael what was the best smart drive, I am building vertical wind turbine generate and is there a limit of how many smart motor? I am in Tampa Florida USA. Also looking to build large 1 meter wide x 2 meter tall.

I just took apart 4 Fisher Paykels 1 Maytag and one very large horizontal washer for the genis. The large horizontal washer has a quite large stator and the rotor has sheet metal on it's outside surface. Do you have any info on these large diameter rotors? Hello from the United States.

Ty

Do you have the part number for the 60DC stator? Thanks

Sorry, we get many variations of this question - Please visit PowerSpout and check out FAQ's (the "Dumb Questions" area - yes we know there are no dumb questions, just a bit of fun :) Basically, unless you have a naturally falling water source, micro hydro generation is not applicable. You can try, but you will always use more energy turning the turbine than you get out.

PowerSpout But as a energy transformer? Solar energy pumps water to an elevated storage tank through the day and at night, is allowed to flow back to the lower reservoir (lifting pump obviously different)

Very interesting and informative! I was thinking about the possibility of paralleling about 4 of these, for 2 projects, one as a generator, the second, as a bldc motor, with about 5kw 96v controller, I'm guessing the 100 would be best for the motor, and the 60 or newer for the generator, I'm thinking DC generator with gas/propane, to charge batteries for my offgrid house! What type charge controllers you guys use?

hi, where can i get smart drive motors? i live in germany.. but there is nothing on ebay

Hi In one of your video's you said that you would charge a nominal fee to tell someone how to wire a Fisher Paykel motor for there application? I have a swimming pool, I'm going to use the pool pump to drive the smart drive motor using a centrifugal pump off the return side of the pool pump and coupling shaft to the smart drive. My question is, I have 120 Vac in my home can you tell me the best way to configure the smart drive for my application. Or ware can I find the necessary info ?.

Pushbike chain and sprockets can/could give some flexibility and align the two units adequately

Good

hi dear power spout how can i drive this motor like as a sensorless motor?

Great video. Very well explained. Is the motor a BLDC motor? Thank you!

Yes, the motor is a BLDC motor. It runs using pulsed 3-phase DC power to run.

Hi, can you plz tell me which motor is in a Fisher & Paykel GW712

Hi Gamerpaddy, you can visit ecoinnovation.co.nz to purchase smart drive motors. We are just about to launch the new website, so if you can't get in when you try, try again soon.

how much volts does it needs to make this motors run by 5000 rpm?

What is the name of the router that you suggested to use because it is copper. And what year were those made and distributed. As a matter of fact we're can you just simply by one of these

👍

Hi I want to use this Motor to drive a LOW 300RPM Wind Turbine Motor to generate electricity,do you think its a good idea.What issue would I come up against this setup.Thanks

What size pelton wheel do you use for either the 100, 80 or 60 size rotors?? And where to buy? I have other questions for water supply and how much pressure. I will have about 40' of 4" PVC reduced to 3/4 with 15 foot fall. Is this all trial and error or is there charts to help with all this. I also subbed to your channel. Thanks for all your efforts!!

kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZICCyKaCY7S7oLQ.html just in case you cant find the 'used ' motor.. why not make your own , to your own specs? this is genius :)

I want to get the fisher & paykel electric motor part. How can I get it ?

Once you are done with the history you should probably put parts back onto the washer can you also please review the washer

what is the timing Diagram for this motors?

I wonder if I have a generator like the same what you talking . In my place it's difficult to find. I saw from Lazada made in China but the comments I read is bad. . Can order this type of motor in amazon or shoppe ?

Do the older 42 pole units generate more power at lower RPM's? It just seems logical, since more transitions happen per rotation.

Sir moter 1 coile torn & size???wire

could you sell one?i need it for my project and cant get it in my country :(

Would you use the Aluminium one with a wind turbine? Or is there other reasons, other than water, that you use the copper one? Cheers.

@newzealandworkingholidayho3656

copper one

@chabka34

I'm not positive but I think the copper one also has a higher efficiency

That's some accent mate! Northern UK with a Kiwi twang?

where can i buy in the usa?

Hiya Mike, i hope your still around answering questions, those first 3 wires that you disconnected, if i were to connect those up to a power plug and plug it into a socket, would it spin the wheel? like a pottery wheel?

@fastbike9845

No, the electronics in the original machine convert the power from the wall socket into high voltage DC and then pulse it (in sequence) into the three windings. Google BLDC motor.

If you use this as DC motor, yes it could turn potter wheel.

Hi where can I get more info about these units 60s 80s 100s

Please if 36 pole who many neodymium insert

Sorry, we are experts on Smart Drives as generators, not on all the models they are fitted to as motors.

Mine was 36pole aluminium wired motor what is operating voltage of it

Has anyone made a successful wind turbine from a smart drive? If so, Where can I see it? Thanks.

Bhaiya apna comment mein number bhej sakte hain kya LDC motor ki complete set kitne ka milega

never herd of woo poo? is that a kiwi brand?

Stay away from Samsung Stators all the Wire is Al.

@gravelydon7072

I wouldn't say stay away from them, just that you need to be aware of it. If AL wire was such a possible problem, none of the companies would use it under their washers. And guess what the overhead electric wires are that are strung all over the world. Yep, they are AL with often a single steel wire down the center to act as a carrier. In the case of Samsung stators, cut the wires to suit, scrape/sand off the enamel, coat with No Ox Id or equal, use a crimp terminal to join to copper wire. When done, you can coat the windings and wire with more enamel or varnish. I would worry more about the metal laminations in the stator rusting before the rotor wire having problems. Be sure to put a heavy coating on the area where the original terminations are such as an epoxy coating or such.

@gravelydon7072

And not all Samsung units have Al wire. There is at least one Model of their motors that have Copper windings. Look for units with a DON1500 motor in them. If you had to buy the stators new though, you'd suffer sticker shock.
