We are going to built a wind generator using a hub motor..
This homemade wind generator is built by using permanent magnet brushless hub motor from an old hoverboard.
The hub motor can be a good generator as it produces sufficient voltage even with a quick spin of hand. So in this project we dissassembled an old hoverboard to use its brushless hub motor as a wind generator.
We have made a customized adapter to fit over the hub motor and act as a holder for turbine blades. Thus the blades will help the motor spin as the wind passes through the blades.
The wind turbine is able to produce 150 watts of power with a wind speed of nearly 5 to 7km/s.
Since our hub motor produces a three phase alternating current so to make it more useful what we are going to do is to design and built a three phase rectifier circuit which allows us to convert three phase AC into DC output.
The schematic, gerber files and the list of components for the rectifier circuit is avlaible here:

The max air speed was 7m/s and not km/s.
that is like 15mph/25kph. I have to wonder how much more efficient it would be with an off the shelf rotor/blade assembly.

Is project was buying how much
Would you please tell us how much clio wat could this design produce? Does he need batteries to store it, or does he go directly to the house?
@@aravindasamym2762 Look online for second hand hover board, A wind controller can also be purchased for less than $30 suitable to this amount of power. All in I bet you can build the whole unit for less than $60, less if you find one broken and build the controller yourself from their PCB link
It's amazing how easy it is to make your own electricity from scrap parts when you have the knowledge to do so. Great video!
*If your happy with 30 watts sure.*
I found your project incredible because it shows how cheap and viable it can be to create your own and thus also invites others to give it a try.
As an experiment it's a good video and has been low cost. As all the other comments say, would be nice to have a follow up video to see what has been learned from the design e.g. Did bearings survive? Did the metal parts require any maintenance, what power did it generate. Ideally what people want is a low cost design to produce about 1 to 2 kWh per day minimum
Very cool and well done project. I do want to make a suggestion about keeping an eye on that motor/generator because the bearings in it are not tapered roller bearings...they're plain roller bearings which are designed for vertical downward thrust...like standing on the hover board, but with wind power, that thrust is now pushing horizontal and not vertical, so those bearings might start to wear out much faster than normal.
Still a great build and fun project, but just some thing to keep an eye on and repair as needed before it fails completely and ruins the gen head on you. Keep up the great work.
They are ball bearings. not likuku.
Nice design! I love how you used all the salvage parts from the hoverboard, even for the vertical spindle. Very good.
The idea just drove itself as we proceed
Where can I get that hoverboard motor ???? Or any alternative ????
@@DIYKingSaM trust you are doing well I'm wishing you the best for life interesting every where you are master
I especially like the use of pvc pipe to make the blades, very smart. I would give them a uv resistant paint job though.
. 9om?.
?
.9om? What.?
DIY King, love what you two are doing. Please keep us posted on all the dual-use technologies out there. People needs to see these things and know how. Thank you.
Do not worry about the Haters and Trolls. Their job is tried to deceive and discouraged folks like you to educate the world at large!!!!
I like it a lot. Only miss multimeter efficiency test.
Good job!
cant do nothing when you try to take curent wheel ill be blocked because of the magnetic field.....
Hi guys, I'm an ex service engineer from the UK. I'm so impressed by your skills and ingenuity. Congratulations this is impressive. Rob
Seems really good, and I never thought of using a hover board for the motors, however this needs a slip-ring unit in it so it can spin in any direction without tangling the wires.
Yes! This is very important!
Your actually good unlike the others that make a paper plane and attach a motor and a switch and a batty to it. It’s also good because you don’t make click-bate.
This is a good video and good videos does not need background music.
Simple voiceover is better
@@Davisurena yes dear you are right.
Agree!
Nope, I think the music and the level is good. Excellent video.
I simply can't understand why people use music in technical related videos.... you either mute sound or let natural sound come through....personally I either refuse to watch the video or turn off sound altogether if it turns out to be a really good one !
I’m a mech engineer and own a software business - This is SO well done!!! You guys are amazing!!
For extra accuracy tighten all three of those chuck holes on the drill press. Great video!
Men after my own heart ❤ wish we could hangout and just build stuff I been repurposing all my life if I couldn't afford it I built it..but almost no one in America is ever motivated to do anything anymore thanks for your video and helping me not feel like I'm the only one!! ..
Nice work, you got my subscription, Some tips, weld a stiffener on the back of the turbine tail bar, it is flopping a lot, at that leverage it will put unwanted high amplitude vibration during high wind velocity and may cause shorter life span over time.
Also, it is always important to discuss electrical power in terms of watt power = volts x Amps, not just to mention voltage as it needs amperage to obtain useful power.
Liked your work. Thumps up.
Thanks for the good words will definitely try to work on considering your suggestions in my upcoming videos
How do you plan to conduct output current through full 360 degree circle azimuth variations?
Wouldn't a very low or zero electrical resistance load be enough to slow the generator rpm to a safe level if it was found to overspeed?
@mako man I had intended my comment toward whoever mentioned it spinning too fast whenever it's too windy. If that wasn't you then maybe it just went in the wrong pidgeon hole.
@@DIYKingSaM لقد بذلت جهد ممتاز ووصلت لنتيجة طيبة استمر بالتوفيق
First time I see video of indian acting naturally. Not showing up at all.. serious.. humble.. all the please .. tools are using it is new and clean.
Thank you for the Great video and for changing my Idea.
Nice video, it would be nice to see some actual performance data.
Visit the instructables blogspot the link is in the description below the video.
Power output is the most relevant figure in this project, and it's missing. Well, from a long, long page, in another faraway server, I found this bit of information: "The generator is able to produce nearly 150 watts of power (12-15v at 14-10 Apms) with a wind speed of nearly 5 to 7 m/s"
@Jon Doe ...?
@Jon Doe People just wanted to know the actual output, calm down.
@@kf8113 😂 😂 😂 yupp... Why he's so rush anyway? Lol
EXCELLENT WIND TURBINE BUILD FROM ANY OLD RAGGLY HOVER BOARD . PRECISE PROCEDURES IN IMPLEMENTING THE PARTS TO WORK . MAY THE SOLAR AND WIND BE WITH YOU .
Congratulations guys, transforming useless things into useful tools!! 💪🏽 well done 👍🏽
धन्यवाद ये सब इनोवेशन मैं विदेशी लोगो को ही करते देखता हुँ , एक भारतीय को दैख कर प्रसन्नता हुई । आप इन्जीनियर है तो नई नई इनोवेशन लाओ।, आरम्भ चाहे विदेशी नकल पर हो ,इससे अन्य लोगो में भी इस तरह का उत्सिह उत्पन्न होगा, एक बार ओर धन्यवाद है।

can you use the gears to increase the rpm?
Yes but torque would drop too. So perhaps larger blades or deal with smaller wattage with less breaking parts. This would definatelly need a brake of some kind as it is. Maybe electrical coming from charge controller or automatically tilting tail when the wind is too high. Latter would require some calculations but with the power of internet search engines...
@@Teknopottu hoverboard motors have hall sensors on them. So, by this you can use an esp8266 and set a maximum rotation allowed. When this is passed a mechanical brake can kick in or a servo can change the position of the tail maybe? It is not that hard.
@@huseyinozsut9949 Seems like s very good idea and not too hard either. Kudos.
First D.I.Y indian channel who is not a wicked person,, great job
Los felicito por su proyecto tan bien elaborado,son muy profesionales,sigan adelante
I like your patience, perseverance and creativity when making your project. Greetings fron Argentina ♡♡♡
Great job guys , you've just shown how to obtain extra power with a little bit of effort put into creating something worthwhile .
its great. My question is
is the wire tangles or twist to the pole as the turbine is moving circular. Your reply is very much appreciated.
This is very cool!
I’d like to see your take on one of these
Good job 😊 pleased to see you turned the blades around 😅
Very nice project! I'm wondering how many RPM's the propellor's are spinning at when they produce the 12-15V and 14-10A. We are planning to use a similar wheel to generate electricity from a playset.
Best diy vedio ♥️♥️. Love you from Bangladesh
We waiting for a new vedio
Good job. I would be really interested to know how much energy was generated by this DIY turbine in a year, how much noise does it produce and if it has survived the rain and other environmental conditions.
as he said it was producing around 150W of energy at that moment. If we take an average of 100W then we get 2.4kwh of energy in a day or around 912kwh a year. Or as we say, you get 2.4 units a day and 912 units a year which is pretty decent especially considering you can make this for less than 10,000 INR
.
This is Genius. I hope you are getting the recognition you deserve!
Do you have some sort of protection built in the system if the wind gets a little bit too strong? I highly recommend it. For the safety of the system and the people around.
There is protection there already with the capacitors and PC board from China to regulate against overload issues.
@@namkebanyanklaritiI mean rpm overload protection, not electric overload. .
Wow... simply amazing! Creation from creativity.
I can dig it. Presented well- I did cut the volume but I still believe it was done well. Have fun guy 😀
GREAT recycling of a device and the workmanship was outstanding
Now for a bit of criticism your fin on your wind vane is cavitating (vibrating) you need to change its shape or reduce its size. That cavitation is reducing your efficiency and in turn your voltage generation (look at your own video it shows the fin "wobbling")
Bottom line it is GREAT workmanship and ingenuity (if your not and engineer you SHOULD become one)
Love the solution for the blades !!! Briliant !!! Clean execution of parts !!! Now, tail ned to be storter and stiffer , but you all ready now that, slip ring has to be used, and lastly, how about automatic brake for high winds ?
Ignore coments about music, keep bright thinking😎👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Tail seems too large for this size windmill.
Have you made a windmill before and does it save money on electricity
@@zachariahmagallan5738 no , unfortunately , but it is on my list for long time due to research , yours blades are great idea , one of the best so far!
I'm so proud of you guys and you make your country and the rest of us proud too.
Brilliant - 7:08 that must have been a great moment for you. Great work.
where is the test video ???? ...fake wind generator ..?????
no not at all where is your proof test is already there
Great to see such stuff from India 🇮🇳 👏
Dude that was sweet, love to have one myself
Make 100s of them and sell electricity to govt
I love these videos because they motivate me and I see how viable sustainable energy is with which we can take care of our planet and pocket.
Nice! it looks very strong with all the metal parts youve used.
I really think I'd love it in India. So many great DIY and inventions coming from there. Subed.
Why did you use steel instead of aluminum?
all we like is there no background music becouse we all like the sound of working
who agree with me?
I entirely agree

Turbine blades using PVC pipe !! Creative idea...nice !!
You need to build a slip ring system to keep the wires from twisting and breaking.
Guys I Love your activities it inspired me since i start watching your videos... Keep up
5:08 where can i find specifications on the PVC blades cutting details?
I've seen some software application being used by russians in another such RUclips video.
Gotta love some Tobu & Itro. ❤
First step.. Turn off "music "
Seconds step.. Watch video
The music is overused 🤧
@Jon Doe You're so innocent, i actually envy you.
@Jon Doe it's fucking everywhere
@Jon Doe ur blocked
@Jon Doe u no like customers.
great stuff friends. 5 blades more stable, but 3 blades will increase rotations/ wattage, also a bearing shaft assembly on the mountings would ensure quicker & smooth direction changes
Hay más velocidad en 3 aspas
Thank you so much for sharing Amazing video!
I wish if you shared with us one or more things:
1) messing the electricity on real time
2) how you connect that wind turbine to electrical devices, or at least how can we plug and charge our phone 😁
Looking for your future videos inshallah!! Thanks
Guys you are creative. Keep posting more videos on power Generation. Just simply WELL DONE
Yes we love these kind of projects
Well, the video is ok. But the background music is not! Anyway: Thank you for shareing the video!
Hello @DIYKingSam, first of all, your projects are wonderful!
I want to make a wind turbine with a hoverboard motor and I wanted to ask a question about it.
according to your experience and personal criteria.
Would you recommend doing it vertically or horizontally?
can we add a gear system in this to increase the rotation which results into producing more energy?
Great idea from Philippines
WELL DONE BROTHER KEEP MOVING FORWARD YOUR RESEARCH AND......
GOOD LUCK 🍀..
Nice project, really nice design & build. It looks industrial.
awesome project. Well done!!
Awesome construction. Brutal music.
Seems like the motor magnets with the load is too much for spinning the turbine freely... also seem like lot of vibration towards the building... but of course better than nothing.
Hello, my name is Veronica! I like all the documentation part of the generator.
Excellent
Awesome guys! Cant to build one in the future! Thanks!!!
You didn't show the voltage and ampere produced by it and how where you use that power despite this all video was amazing like a professional
Sorry for that as its difficult to cover all the things in such short video.
The output was connected to our inverter to charge the batteries. At max air speed which was 7m/s we were able to produce 150 watts(24v and 6Amps)
@@DIYKingSaM Clean recycled intelligent 150W ! Congratulations 😎
cause that motor is too musch cogg of magnet not an easy like freewheel so its hard to spin by averrage wind condition so im sugest to make this into hydro turbine and see amp draw by water force or see a video named "The $50 Water Turbine" may be next project proof
put a simple bulb 12 v ...imediatly will block wheel
Voltage variable con la velocidad y amperaje variable con la fuerza de torque , yo usé uno igual y comienza con 3 volt ac y algunos2 amp y con 300rpm sube a 12 volt ac con 5 amp y con 800 rpm
People need resultads, how many power, and amps it produced, it ok to supply in a small house? All procedures were explained excellent. Thank You.
if u provide a data sheet of performance of this turbine it would be helpful.
#btw Thanks for the good project
You will never see this.
I make a similar one, with 2m.diameter and i don't have more than 10V in good wind condition (10m/s)
Hi i am watch From Bangladesh. Nice video. Many many thanks for that's video.
Muito bom o projeto mas faltou a parte mais importante é quantos volts, potência. Faltou as medicações das grandezas elétricas.
Love from India ❤️😍
Great job. vertical type wind turbine might be more efficient. As the turbine need time to move to the air flow direction and that time it decrease the speed of the turbine.
no
May ALLAH tala improve your health ameen
The day youtube provides a button to disable background music will be a great day in technology...
Very good guys. Top workmanship. 👍👍👍
Well done man , what's the output (V , A )
I think between 12-16V 15amps but with 3:1 gwar it can produce way more electricty about 400-500W
Next build you might consider using lock nuts with plastic washer. They have plastic built into the nut so it will never back out. I only suggest this since it is a safety concern. Otherwise it is a great build.
5-7km in a second windspeed, not bad 🤪toughest storm i know😂 thx for the vid!
Its mean was hour
clamp your material to the drill press - 'Before you hurt yourself
You do nice work - editing department gets an A+
Well, reduce the blade lengths.... It will increase the rpm and u will get more power with ur current setup
Genuis idea you are creative man big like from crafts bladi channel
U uploaded after like a decade.
Yups just busy setting up the new workspace and yes lazyness...
Nice content. But I have a question that is bugging me. What if you stacked up 2,3 or even 4 such alternators, all their rotors being turnerd by a common shaft ? Would it multiply the generated power ?
Hate the music. Loved the cleverness.
Loved the music!!!
Project is LOVELY. KEEP it up, you have done it .
You didn't show the voltage output of project.
Hi pro.
On PCB . Out put is 12v ?
You have solve when storm is going ?
-Баллансировка?
-Не , не слышал...
Excelente trabajo amigo
Nice
Loved this so much..wan to work with you..I have no idea about work..but u guys really inspired me .
"Badass engineering "
Nice job! You need to reduce the turbine solidity by 3 blades and also enhance the swept area by increasing the rotor diameter.
First step, hit the M key;
then watch this MOST NICE video.
Yes young boys doing great job
God bless you for making your country proud
PLEASE "NO" B-GROUND 🎶MUSIC 🎶!
IS NOT NEEDED.!! ONE More thing"
"I did Notice"!!! That you're wire, is
Just sticking up in the air" And then looping back down,!! What is MY Piont?
What happens, to the "WIRE" if wind Changes direction,???? It's wrapped around the Pole Mount.!!! Oookay,
In a strong enough wind,!! YOU'RE
Lead, wire Will be damaged,!! OR
EVEN" BROKE & TORE LOOSE.!!!
Then you have "wind blowing it at night" The wire's LOOSE, Flapping in the wind, Making fire works, that anyone close enough, can see.
Brother I like your project viodes, very good and useful.
Thank you.
