The stator windings of induction motors also make pretty good inductors.  Can be had for scrap value if you're lucky ⁣Sent from BlueMail ​ On 5 Mar. 2018, 01:16, at 01:16, Lee Hart via EV wrote: >John Lussmyer via EV wrote: Would a "bad boy" full wave 3 phase rectifier

No,  a vfd can go in both directions. Same concept as using one as a motor controller.  You're basically getting the vfd to run the genset in Regen.  Genset goes on the output side of the vfd. The battery goes on the dc bus.  No need to connect anything to the normal ac input ⁣Sent from

Re: [EVDL] 3 phase range extender?

You could get a variable frequency drive to convert the ac to dc.  Assuming the get set output is 220vac or similar. ⁣Sent from BlueMail ​ On 4 Mar. 2018, 13:21, at 13:21, John Lussmyer via EV wrote: >So, I happen to have an older 3 phase, 60KW generator head. >I also have

So, I happen to have an older 3 phase, 60KW generator head. I also have a small car engine with all the pollution controls. My battery pack is fully charged at 332VDC. I'm trying to figure out if there is some way to use this generator as a range extender. While driving my PFC-50 would help
