Oh man I finished my turbine


So I finished my turbine it produced some power not sure how much it lit up the bulb and was spinning fairly fast. It only has 2 blades bearings are new and very stiff still and the chain is loose so it's super inefficient right now but it does work it is also fairly quiet.

That is cool! Do you have a voltage regulator or a charger control pyro?

I'm going to build a control box. It will be able to control my turbine and solar panel(when I build them)

That is a cool idea but I would need some huge magnets. But anyways I modified the blade it now has 3 blades instead of 2 much more balanced and tightened the chain I think 15mph winds and it will spin nicely it can handle somewhere around 35-40 and produce buttloads of power.

It was a gusty test day and when it finally hit the sweet gust things got scary as I was holding the blades of doom on my shoulder!!!!

If you check further, you will find that video is a fake. You cant generate voltage like that with magnets
