What I learned today: I can easily produce at least 1.5 volts of DC current and a whole bunch of amps with an old sewing machine electric motor. It takes very little effort and can be sustained for hours.
But is it enough to charge a battery? Is it a lot of power or not much at all? Can I just attach my electric motor turned generator to a battery and hope it charges it or does there need to be something else involved? If I put two sewing machines motors in series and turned them at the same time and rate, would I produce twice as much power? Do batteries like amps or volts more?
These are things I need to know?
Still offering extra-special hand spun yarn and / or lovely spinning fibre for person who knows electrics and can help coach me through this project. Heck, I'd even through in a free vintage sewing machine if you could pay the shipping cost.
I might be able to answer ur question 20 years ago, when i was a high school student and good at physics. LOL. sewing machine
ReplyDeleteI love that picture! For some reason, the presence of your notebook and fountain pen gives me the impression that you're doing serious detective work about your project - which is probably true, in a sense!
