Nando,
The best advice I've gotten thus far is from you,, on a different site. The
following is what
you wrote: { I DO NOT SUGGEST A PELTON, a Vertical Turgo is a possibility.
You need a carefull analysis -- 460 to 90 watts (real around 430 to 60 Watts).
My suggestion is a high voltage generator, 240 Volts AC like a 1.5 HP induction
motor as a
generator, or a PM 3 phase brushless Smart Drive motor from Fisher & Paykel
with two set
ups, DELTA for high power and STAR for low power and transformers at the load
to bring
the voltage to the charger ( I suggest a C40) }
You suggested a BANKI at one point. Whats the difference between it and a
Vertical
Turgo;;; I gather a pelton is not practical for this application.
Thanks
Chip
