Hey! Thanks for this helpful video. By the way, I notice many people keep on talking about Xobotano Home Energy (just google it), but I’m not sure if it’s good. Have you tried using this alternative home energy known as Xobotano Home Energy? I’ve heard many incredible things about it.

Actually you are right… It s they first thing i did at first ;o) unfortunately this technique is usable only once with this king of magnets… since you will just fade away all the magnetism of the weakest magnet after 1 or 2 trial.
Got it from a sheet of metal i had… i had to cut it my self, but u can also find somebody that does the cuting for you with jet water, it will be much easyer i guess ;o)
NB just uploaded my new video regarding the blades.
Enjoy
Thank s for your comment
Well these are just very small test blades… ;o) the original are 1m tall and 50 cm wide… i will show them very soon with a new upload. i will also explain how i did them…
Very interesting project. It looks like your going to have a nice low RPM/high output generator there. I think the blades are way too small though. With the drag of the generator, you’ll probably need a much wider blade span.

A pretty safe way to check polarity of the magnets is to use a much smaller magnet of known polarity.

So,,, what does this beast crank out in watts and amps at what rpm’s. Thanks for the vid. Regards.

Where did you get the steel magnet plate?

Thanks for the comment…
I will probably add another video next month since i am still testing blade shapes…
