  • A way to build your own wind turbine for generating electricity using a bicycle wheel simply and with easily available parts. more...
    NRGcycle.com/ (plans)
    Have fun reinventing the wheel.
    Can you find ways to improve on it?
    Parts list and assembly steps on the website.
    Thanks to Suki, Julianna, Andrew, Anna and mostly Clarice.
    Some call it a "Do-It-Yourself-Windmill", like in the Larry Page TED talk video.
    You might be able to replace the charge controller with simply a diode for certain generators and batteries bringing the total cost to as low as $50.
    With wind ~15-20 mph you should be able to power a netbook computer with no batteries involved.

    Why cut the spokes they unscrew very easily?

    Liked the bit about removing the unused spokes.

    • @gravewalker1632
      @gravewalker1632 5 лет назад

      They said to remove every other set of spokes.... looking at the pic I think they meant every other set, not sure because the pic is not hi res. Check and plan before cutting.

    how much does it generate

  • @looncan7484
    @looncan7484 10 лет назад

    On the wind chart 1:54 the UK isn't there, they have massive amounts of wind turbines on sea & land, and taking into consideration that Scotland is the no1 windiest place in Europe...

    • @looncan7484
      @looncan7484 10 лет назад

      Also not just Europe, Ireland and the U.K are probably no1 for most consistent winds in the world when scale is considered instead

    • @crpth1
      @crpth1 9 лет назад +1

      +Looncan Hi Please notice the chart is addressing wind gen vs population by that date. Then it makes sense why such a small country like Portugal comes in third place for example.Or Denmark in first considering they are the worlds biggest producers of wind mills. ;-)

    With plans from Avasva you can make it really easy.

    or instead of paying 110 or 17 or 10 ''''''' a full bridge ac to dc rectifier diode circuit , does the same 99p on ebay .

      Cheers for this, I've been looking for "how to store electricity for home use" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Diyadison Penhloe Blaster - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is a smashing one off product for generating your own electricity without the headache. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my brother in law got excellent success with it.

    A 24 inch turbine of any sort will not produce more than 15 watts.

    • @garyha2650
      @garyha2650 5 лет назад +1

      Looks like it would take around 20' diameter to drive a 1000 watt heater directly at 10 mph wind.
      So charge batteries or build many.

  • @0077alfie

    This has been patented and is called the Tension turbine. google Tension Turbine Inc.

    • @baneblackguard584
      @baneblackguard584 6 лет назад +1

      no way. this kind of generator has been made by hobbyists for more than a century. they may have a patent for a very specific design, but no patent would be given for the general idea. and even if somehow they managed to get a patent for the general description it wouldn't stand up in court because as i've said people have been making these for over a century.

  • @fredbloggs2417
    @fredbloggs2417 7 лет назад

    its not worth trying to copy this video because pulling the spokes out makes it slow down and hardly spin ' unless every one lives next to the sea .

      You are not god's. You can no more change the climate of this planet than you can change your gender.
      The precession of the Earth's orbit equinoxes, eclipsing the magnetic centre of the Sun's fermie bubbles Oort cloud magnetosphere is.
      These are just the birthing pains as Jesus put it. Mother Earth's WATER won't break until the MOON pulls the Earth's increased double torus mangetospehre OUT & around the planet as in the days of Noah with the conjunction of Mercury-Venus-Moon & Earth. First one will be in 20333 & every 40 years thereafter for the millennium of peace if you accept Jesus as humanities Christ/Messiah.
