I have a large battery bank consisting of 12 2 volt cells. Each 2 volt cell weights 250 pounds and is 1075 amp hour. Currently I have 2 banks of 12 volt hooked together and serving my 12 volt 3000watt inverter for various appliances and also serving a half dozen 12 volt halagen lamps through out the house. I have 2 c60 trace charge controllers monitoring my 12 volt bank and diverting power to a 40 gallon hotwater tank that has been modified for 4 600 watt 12 volt water heating elements,and it works great.
My generators consist of a 1000 whisper, a 10 dual rotor,and my new addition, a 17 foot Dual Rotor, 24 mags 1x2x1/2 each disc, with 18 coils in the stator wired 3 phase, wound with #14.5 4 in hand, 17 turns. It makes power in low wind conditions and puts out 100 + amps in 15 - 20 m.p.h breeze.
I have wound a new stator for 24 volt for this 17 foot machine, 18 coils, 34 turns of #14 wire, 2 in hand. I plan to change the other wind generators to 24 volts also.
I made a sketch of my battery set up and would like to know if this will work with the equipment I have at this time. I plan to purchase a 24 volt inverter to replace my 12 inverter in the near future.
I will still need to tap the 24 volt bank for my 12 volt halagon emergency lighting which I have in place throughout the house.
Would appreciate if you guys would look at my sketch and tell me if I messed up somewhere. I would hate to smoke up some of my equipment, it was a long time coming. I have more pictures in my files. I am adding 12 more of the same batterys to my system this fall. Thankyou Mitcamp
