Woah that's awesome! What a cool idea for a Lego build 😱

While i do love this ingenuity , i just had to comment on one thing. I dont know i f you have an oscilloscope, but i would recommend that you get one to se the wave signal of your coil. because those coils are extremely inefficient. And since you talked about efficiency regarding the vacuum turbine, i would like to think that machine efficiency would also be equally important. While the magnet traverses over the coil, enveloping the coil, there is no induction at all. One would like to think that peak voltage would be at that point, but due to the coil geometry that is not the case. I would assume that the peak voltage positive is when the permanent magnet is introducing the magnetic field in where the edge of the magnet is aligned with the center of your circular core. and a new peak when the magnet is about to leave the coil. The coil in it self introduces harsh harmonic distortion which in turn creates huge losses. If you are going to iterate on this design, i would invite you to check out how coils are assembled in the stators, aligned perpendicular with the magnet, linear, non-circular. A bit difficult to explain, but check out for example lesics. Anywas, a really good proof of concept. i imagine, keeping your coil urn, id guess you would acheive atleast 60% efficiency if you redesign it. And that might be a understatement.

Most vacuum cleaners also have an output, where air from the vacuum is brought out of the vacuum cleaner. Why not connect a hose to the output of the vacuum cleaner, and use on the input vent of the generator? Would it make more power now that are is not just being drawn in, but forced in? Have vacuum on one side of the fan, and air on the other side still, Add a flap to the air side so you can still control the power. Might even use a bigger fan to spin it, so you have much more torque and power.

You should be able to get an estimate of how much power your phone is taking by using an app to measure power going into the battery, and having it take measurements with the screen off so you can be sure that almost all of what your phone takes is in fact going into the battery. The only issue is that I'm not aware of an app that records historical power measurements. The closest I'm aware of is Battery Guru, which reports instantaneous power (which you can only actually see with the screen on), but only records historical current (which doesn't tell you much beyond a qualitative fast/slow without also knowing the battery voltage). I'm sure an app that does the right thing is possible though.

Though I'm working on a Lego bellows that might be able to sort of work (badly). The best vacuum I've managed to get working is the peristaltic pump in my drink cooler video, but it's super weak, and only useful for thick fluids like water

I do remember! Did you see any success with it?

This guy will discover warp propulsion

I want to see you attach this generator to a lego wind turbine and make some power without using power to generate your air

Me too, that's absolutely on the agenda 😉 I've built a few working prototypes, but will certainly do a video on it at some point

Yes it does

I would love that you beat the world record for the fastest lego vacuum engine (lve) ❤❤😂😂 good try!

Appreciate it 😁 I've seen a few videos recently that get some pretty high RPMs. I'm surprised they aren't higher though. Thanks for the idea - I might give it a try!

The record is about 60k RPM, would be a little difficult, but not impossible! (Also keep in mind, the dude that said he claimed the ”world record” (lucas dynamics) didn’t actually beat the world record)

@@JamiesBrickJams They are though. The current world record is 60k RPM. The bigger videos with vacuum turbines lie about the world record.

Woah ok, my impression was waaaay off - I thought it was under 20k. 60k is just nuts. Do you have a link to that? I'd love to see what on earth they did

Well yes, i would hope it does

Nooooo you cant just make power with Lego! HAHA turbine go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT

We love you bro
