Thanks so much for posting this! I really enjoyed your explanation and presentation. I have searched for this info for a while and your video came up out of the blue. Warmest regards!
Hotness? That must be an imperial measurement. Excellent video Dr Cave, I never gave much thought to the output being AC, but there’s no commutator so AC it must be I haven’t seen a magneto in more years than I care to recall, It was an impulse maggie on a Fordson Major and I was about 5 Years old, my father warned me not to have my hand anywhere near the output spouts when I cranked that puppy. I would love to know how they change from impulse to direct drive, I’m guessing via fly weights, they were certainly capable of throwing a good fat spark in impulse mode.
