HOW TO GENERATE ELECTRICITY FROM POWERED SEWING MACHINE, WHOSE MOTOR RUNS AROUND 2000 RPM?
Mar 31st
Question by senthil k:
How to generate electricity from powered sewing machine, whose motor runs around 2000 rpm?
We’ve 500 powered sewing machines in our factory. Like all the machines running by motor these, sewing machines are also working. My idea is to use motor’s rotation to generate electricity, like wind mill and turbines work. Conversion of elxtrical energy to electricity. Can someone help me how to execute this in most economical way…

WHAT MOTOR SHOULD I USE FOR A DIY MINI WIND TURBINE?
Jan 3rd
Question by mbike999:
What motor should I use for a DIY Mini Wind Turbine?
I read that stepper motors from old tape drives or dot-matrix printers are low rpm and good for making wind turbines, but I cannot find either of those for the life of me. Are there any other common household items that would have a suitable motor to use as a wind power generator?

FEEDING A ELECTRIC MOTOR WITH BOTH A BATTERY AND A SOLAR PANEL?
Sep 10th
Question by Klaio:
Feeding a electric motor with both a battery and a solar panel?
I was wondering if it was possible to have a battery and a solar panel feeding a electric motor. The main idea was that, when in darkness the motor would run using the power from the battery, but when exposed to sun, it would begin using the solar panels instead, possibly even recharging the battery if possible. I have thought about linking the solar panel directly into the battery, but i fear it could damage the battery somehow.
