These two guys are unreal! grin


3 words Cecil...Axial Flux generator. Little to no cogging effect like you get from a permanent magnet type design. They start, and run, in lower wind speeds......


"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
