[ARC5] Dynamotor Success?

[Robert Eleazer]

I fired up the rewired dynamotor this morning and found it ran just fine.  With about 12 VDC at 1.5 amps on the input I got 156VDC out, with a slight variation of a few volts.  I also noted the DVOM showed 4 VAC on the output.  All this was under no load.   RPM seemed to be pretty high; it did not sound slow.

Of course you would expect about these results without any rewiring, with 12 VDC on the input rather than 21 VDC.  The next step is to devise a suitable load bank to see how it does with that attached.  I'll need about 1200 Ohms good for at least 25W. 

Or I could just install it in the BC-652-A and see how it does.
