Photo time take 1 Petrol engine

Trial and error to get it started to run some light bulbs



The full wave bridge rectifier from AC to sweet sweet DC


Time to see how added modifications work


Fully kitted out for a variable output


Hocked up to a dummy load


Even now still hard at work

Problems we had with the engine so far that we have overcome

• Bad preformance - the engine spluttered and spattered so had to be tune
• 3 phase out put - what was needed is a dc output so we rectified it
• Little or no output - simple problem simple answer an exciter
• The amount of output - to make it a variable output a exciter was installed
• The output dropped - charge the exciter aka the battery
• Unsure at what output we want - put the real load on it and fine tune
