Hi iFred
I started playing with puse charging for its desulfating ability. My first pulsers were the 555 timers with 30 volt dc supplys and transistors to handel the amperage of curent swiching.
Then Hanou (spl?) posted about just using a cap befor the fullwave bridge and conecting straight to the ac line.
His post stated for every 24UF 1 amp of curent would flow. This is at 120 vac.
I did this with 240uf and got 10 amps. This system was much simpler and worked much better.
My thoughts then were to take the ac output of a wind genny and do the same thing.
This would work with very high voltage gennys. It would allow them to charge at low voltage but at the same time create a load match that would not cause stall.
I've not tried this yet. Once my crank up tower goes up I'll give it ago.
Should work with 3 phase also. This will make long small wire runs posable with high volts at the genny but low volts at the batteries. All this without the problems of transformers. Transformer problems I've incountered. impeadance miss match, stall do to low frequency at startup and insertion losses.
