Title: Axial Flux Generator Search
Post by: veggie on January 30, 2021, 12:45:21 AM

Anyone know of a supplier of Axial Flux generator kits or parts?
Or has anyone built one ?
I have seen DIY plans on how to build them but making my own windings and epoxying everything into a functioning unit it a bit more that I want to tackle.
I thought there were windmill DIY companies who catered to building these, but perhaps many of them have dropped away.
Imagine one on the flywheel of a Lister !  ;)

here's an example of one,

and a small kit   https://www.windstuffnow.com/main/mini-gen.htm

These folks have a white paper, but may not be selling anymore

sadly, the other links I had, seem to be dead..
