permanent magnet generator

Does anuyone know where i can get hold of cheep permanent magnet generators and gear systems for increasing revolutions un the UK? I can find a few in the US but the shipping is almost as much as the generator its self.

I know of a group that is trying to increase revolutions in the middle east. Don't know when they plan to start trying in the UK.

yes eeyore i do have a problem with the fast that i sometimes make mistakes

when typing and my spelling is terible but if you havn;t got anything tconstructive to sat then don;t say anything you just seem to be here to tajke the piss out of everyone that arn;t conected to your ass

um i don;t think i explained it correctally i was watching a program, the

other day and this guy (the 1 that invented the clockwork radio) just coved in to a house down cornwall and to power his house or at least some of it he built a water wheel which only only turned at about 60 revs a minute he then attached that to a 1-44.2 geer system which was something salvaged from another machine it was at least 10 years old if not older and then atached tat output to the generator and i want to try something simalart just minus the water wheel. at a push i know a few people in the dockyard that with a bit of persuation could build me a gear system but it would be expensive but the generator i know wuill have to be new but i have no idea what suppliers there are.

You mean the programme "it's hard being green" ? That's not Trevor Bayliss fwiw.

He's not using a permanent magnet generator IIRC. There's a field coil powered from a battery I think ( which then gets recharged from the outout of the generator ). Probably just a normal alternator actually.
I have seen some permanent magnet alternators for home construction though. A guy working on wind power in Scotland published his design online. http://www.scoraigwind.com/

If you can't be bothered to communicate your question clearly, why should anyone else feel the need to give you a constructive answer. The way you posed your question gives us leave to wonder if you truly know which end of hammer to hold.

It's more the case that I couldn't even begin to work out what on earth you meant !

How big do you want? What voltage and current rating?

You can use an automotive heater fan motor, an automotive radiator fan motor, or even a permanent magnet starter motor. A windscreen wiper motor also works, and has a built in gear drive - as does a power window motor if you are looking for low voltage and relatively low power output.
A treadmill motor works for higher output voltage and power.

no it is a bbc program called it's not easy being green and it is Richatd

i;m looking at anythi g that gives about 12 volts at 3 amps but higher is

better as i want to start with some small tests around the home but move on to using it for several things at once whick means i will need it to produce more evectricty as i start to use it for more things i can always not use it to it's fll potential at first but if i want to expand then i don;t want to have to get anotther after second hand ones are a good iea but ut us hard to get secondhand parts over her cause all the working ones are usually whiped up by rtepair copmpanys and as soon as they are available.

Gordon Richmond maybe not everyone here is a stuck-up twit this is supposed to be about helping each other and promoting ideas it isn;t supposed to be about people moaning about others comunication skills. i amended the problem but i have had some direct emals from people that did understand what i was refering to.

it would have been more polite to ask me to just reitterate then to complain about my comunication skills i am wprking on them but my skills have never been that way inclines but if you look through history some of the best skilled workers couldn't read or write and some still can't so please excuse me or being one of these people.
