Robin: I have used wind shield wiper motors, radiator cooling fan motors, seat mover motors as generators, though they need to be rotated from 1400 to about 2800 RPM, depending the model or use. They are capable of producing around 15 at 5 to 20 amps (model sizes). Their life around 3 to 8000 hours of continuous use

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? > > Robin Young > Performance Managment > Network Services > 03 85491108 > > http://www.in.telstra.com.au/ism/org747ra/index.asp > > > > > > > Does your company feature in the microhydro business directory at http://microhydropower.net/directory ?
