The fisher & Pykel Gentle Annie washing machine has a fixed magnet 12v motor that has both low speed and high speed wirings. The low speed mode is best suited for this purpose. F&P is sold in Australia and I imagine it will be easy to get the motor from a service centre. In fact I think it is made by General Electric. It is a 3phase motor and I have used a standard automotive rectifier with it. I think the one I have is a 70amp nissan rectifier This configuration is quite p[opular here with boaties and my brother in law has one on a windmill. it makes a good battery charger. An alternative is the smart drive motor and another member of the group may be able to help with this Regards

I could live with higher up to 24v and 2 amps but am just after something small. Most applications I can find are either too large or too small. Considering that I am in Australia I was wondering if anyone would know where to source a suitable generator?
