A small generator for use with a vertical axis wind turbine. It uses sixteen 1/4" x 1/4" x 1" neo magnets (magnetized through a narrow side). The bearings are 5mm ID x 16mm OD x 5mm thick. The shaft is 5mm diameter x 100mm long.
Detail 005 is an adapter plate to go with the experimental wings on my previous design.
With 20 turns of 24AWG magnet wire, the generator would produce about 0.8 watts at 1200 RPM.
