Great work from all you guys out there and with the scope comes a sense of certainty but .... It is very time consuming for sure to build a complete scale "unit" for testing but watch what happens. I think Dan is seeing it and Troy besides. Things don't always add up or react the way it is assumed they will when testing a single coil or 2 and then just filling in the blanks on paper. Add up the coils yes but I think what we are all hitting on is the "time" or frequency factor which relates directly to the spacing / magnet / coil size relationaship. Again it's all what you need for your application. If a clean wave at a certain voltage / speed is important then shoot for it with the "ideal" spacing, size etc. (I'll call it Ed's clean machine) Some of us less fortunate who have been working with meters can see (measure) a higher output at the same given speed by packing in the coils and magnets, not as clean or ideal electrically but if it fits your own application it maybe a more efficient "bang for your buck"(thanks Dan) especially at a lower windspeed. What a great collection of knowledge here and I am having fun which is most important to me. Thanks guys, Dave B.
