Back of Alternator 28 fins to act as heat sink to dissipate heat. Heavy Duty.
Introduction This auction is for one WindZilla Permanent Magnet Alternator with Speed-Up Gearbox. It is perfect for Fitness Bike, Vertical Wind Turbines, Hydro electric generation system. This alternator is perfect for enthusiast who are interested in a DIY Project. Since this is an alternator, it will generate 3 phase AC electricity. However, the included Rectifier will convert AC into DC. The advantages of an alternator compare to a DC motor are:
1. Alternators have longer life than DC motors. The only thing that will wear out is the bearing (around 20 years). And by a simple bearing swap will allow your generator to go another 20 years 2. Alternators are more efficient than DC motors because they are built to generate electricity. In addition, there will be less voltage drop in AC electricity compare to DC. Alternatively, DC motors has the option to work as a generator or a motor.
Sample Bike Installation.- Trainer Bike NOT included
Installation: Unlike conventional generators in the market where you have to tie it down to a brace, or use super glue to stabilize it, our generator has foot mount for easy installation. All you need is 4 bolts to secure the unit to whatever you like. And you will never have to spend extra money on mounts.

Curve:
The above battery charging power curve is obtained from charging a 24V 100Ah battery bank with our SolarWind Hybrid Charge Controller. (not included in this listing)
With the Speed-Up GearBox, this alternator will reach 24V at as low as 50RPM!
Since wind speed increases with height, increases to the tower height can mean enormous increases in the amount of electricity generated by a wind turbine.
