Tip from an long time certified solderer - always run the iron across a wet sponge to remove excess (it has lost its flux and is now more of a drossy burden when using with flux cored solder), next _always_ heat the work first, before touching the solder to it or you burn the flux up too fast and it can lead to connection stability problems. Then introduce solder to the work, not the iron - it should flow freely like a tight skin hugging the metal (the sign of a good melt) and cool shiny (which is a good join, as opposed to dull which is a cold solder joint). This should all happen quickly so as not to overheat the work and once the solder sticks don't linger with their on or you lose the antioxidizing effects of the flux. If you get a situation where the solder is heading but not sticking either apply flux paste sparingly or flood the area with solder to coax new flux on to it then tap the area quickly to remove excess (if it didn't drop off on its own) or sponge it off immediately after removing the iron (you just want to get rid of the excess solder without lingering. Lingering oxidizes the underlying metal and solder starts to flip as it contains dross now and nothing wants to stick. I've personally taken to just sticking a q-tip in paste flux (I prefer rosin as it is only acidic when hot and won't degrade wire when below soldering temps) and dab everything for jobs this size and larger (size as in wire that's this heavy). Anyway, nice job - I know nothing about these alternators and am trying to learn. This was very helpful, thanks!d
yeah I liked his video myself, but the soldering needed some work...My brother is a great solderer and was amazed when he saw me solder...its because i am a welder mig,tig,stick, brazing fusing metal is my job lol I once soldered a tank back on a radiator and it looked like it was formed and not soldered
"Then introduce solder to the work, not the iron" yes, but. This is also the right moment to put a little(!) bit of solder to the iron so it will make a solid thermal connection to the work. Just lightly touching the iron's tip while moving the solder to the work works fine. Another thing to watch is that you want the work to wick up the solder, not press a blob of solder onto it. When working on clean electronics with a low thermal mass and a good iron, one can do this directly from the tip, but one needs to keep in mind that this is a special case, not the norm.
One of the best demonstration videos I've ever seen. So clear, absolutely thorough, covering all the necessary points, yet no waffle at all. Excellent. Thanks you.
Buddhanz1 I agree prolly took bit more time to video but Was very clear beginning to end .Do you suppose you could put multiple sets of those onto a rotor section without dragging it to much
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I don't know much about electricity but after watching this 3 times and reading some of the comments I am considering having a go - but using wind to turn the stater. I followed up and watched the other video regarding the water wheel and inverter and such. Wish I could get my hands on all the other stuff for free so I could go ahead with the build. Cheers.
hi ! Love the concept and everything. If you want your tin to stick to the copper. You have to clean it up with a chemical product (plumber product) 1 apply product on the area. 2 Heat it up 3 remove heat source 4 apply tin. That's how a plumber do, by the book. About that there is 2 types (or more) tin. take the one without lead. That's the one allowed in drinkable water. You might end up in trouble if you don't. lead path : tin => water => fish => humans => hospital Just thinking to this. An old plumber I had as a teacher told me that water looses speed when it turns. Even into a pipe. Therefore you might have a better output because you have two 90° angles. (if I remember correctly) Once again I'm just triing to help.
Excellent use of an old washer, bravo man! Like Frank Resists says about soldering. Heat the wires then put the solder to it, gives you a superior connection that won't fail and looks terrific, it'll make your connections look totally pro.
Best soldering iron/gun I ever owned... Was an adjustable/variable pencil purchased from MCM Electronics back in the 90's. I paid 13 dollars for the thing and it lasted me until 2015! it still works, but the entire point is ate up... Not sure if I can find replacements. It was brown with a little white dial that you used your finger nail to adjust temp. A 1000% times better than any soldering gun or pencil I have ever owned.
I actually found that MCM still sells the thing!!! In 1992 or so I paid 13 bucks for it... Now it's only 17 or 18. Best inflation rate I have seen to date! :) Now if silver solder will come back down to a reasonable price... Vtwin will be a happy man. :)
thank you so much for these videos and for leaving them up so long. I have been waiting for many years to be in the position to use this method, now I have the space and need and will put your knowledge to good use. Cheers
Mate, I have copied down all your instructions and drawn pictures to the best of my ability. I would like to try this here in Canada (Alberta Rocky Mountains). My father was like you always thinking and tinkering. He would have been so proud to call you son, instead he got a girl terrified of electricity. Thanks!!!!!
@@andrewhigdon8346 Yes it is!!! Abraham Lake a reservoir lake west of Nordegg has been cited as one of the best places to see Bigfoot. Neither I nor any of my friends have seen it though. If you go to google maps you can get a great satellite photo of the area. Beautiful!! and very remote!
I noticed you didnt tell us to sand enamal from main wire at the breaks in the wire cover. Is it an omission or does stripping it also make ready the wire for solder? Thank you for sharing with us your brilliant mind, and keep showing us how to live woken. Peace, Brother.
Beautiful build my man . Ive seen generators made from modified F&P washing machine motors . For off-grid hydro and wind power that last for many years . Btw , test and harvest those hover board batteries . Charge your own DIY power wall .
I spent best part of today doing this with the aid of your video..Now for the rectifier and voltage reducer..Thanks..BTW..i found that scratching the snipped wires with a craft knife made soldering easy..
If your soldering with a tip with enough thermal mass and the soldering iron is over 30W, it should burn right through the enamel. I solder magnet wire all the time without removing the enamel first. The issues he's running into in the video is his tip has practically no thermal mass; his solder seems to have too low of a flux ratio; and he is feeding the solder onto the iron, not the wires, which is burning off most of what little flux there is before it can help mate the solder to the copper.
Buddhanz I'm going to make a few stators and see where they lead. First one will be hooked up to an excercise bike and whatever my friend who is keen to engineer can engineer. A rotary tool makes it easy to strip the wires, as I learned after trying to manually join the each series of coils by sanding them manually with sand paper. I joined the 3 phases to every 6th coil like a dream with the rotary tool to remove the enamel off the wires. At the moment I have plans on a power supply for an advertisement billboard trailer for a fellow activist friend that is currently in the make. At the end of the day we are looking at building many modifications such as hydro electric to keep a self sustaining aquaponic setup and more. Looking at building affordable setups to help the everyday man and woman break free from the slavery system ;)
CapnSchep I get 30 amps @ 24v without any overheating issues, I scratch groves in the rotor to increase air flow around the stator, it never gets much higher than 40 c. The spinning rotor adds a cooling effect. 1000 rpm
Great video very detailed good job. Don't let the creeps get to you. I'm working on a water wheel for my creek running through my backyard so I'll be looking for one of these motors also.
Not creeps, just educated. No such thing as free energy yet they insist on posting titles like this. I use a hydroelctrostatic generator as well, but the potential and mechanical advantages come from the water..NOT free out of thin air, and NO it's not perpetual. Just be articulate and concise where its needed, that's all us 'creeps' ask
excellent use of hot glue! it works well for insulating and if you don't have a gun a Bic lighter works fine. it's just a little messier! great videos, thank you
Fantastic video, thanks !!! However, any chance of a circuit diagram please, it would be enormously appreciated, by more than just me, I'm sure, cheers.
This is great could do with some audio though. though i can see what you are doing based on the diagram at the start. When you are actually cutting wires it is hard to see and would benefit for some audio description.

Well done, Sir. The hot glue stuff is an excellent idea, I am looking forward to use it in the future. I wish I had as much space - including my own small river - and tools as you.
Very interesting thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge with us. I live in the USA not familiar with that particular brand of washing machine are stators like the one in your video in all washers or limited to certain brands and if so would you be familiar with typical brands offered in the states?
How I wish I could do what you did. I can only understand simple dc motor. Very informative and helpful. I am itching to disassemble old washing machine but stop short of doing so because I may not be able to finish working on what you did :(
Mc Pedro Jr Thanks man. If you're not confident doing this sort of thing, best leave it till you have more experience. I wouldn't want you getting a zap
great vid. I can see you are putting the coiling more into parallel to reduce the voltage and increase the ampage interested to figure out if factory wiring was star/Y and your rewire was delta? or the other way around.
Your performance is beautiful, thanks for the information. I have a question, does it work in a faster way on the motor, and what is the specified speed for rotation or without limits?
Could have used an up close look and explanation of an individual group of 3 windings because it looks like the wires go every which direction so it would be nice to know what you focus on to cut and why.
Interesting Video. May I suggest, however, that you use heatshrink tubing for insulation instead of hot glue? Sure, it's a bit more work to get the soldering joints just right so you can still slide the heatshrink tubing over the joint, but it's just so much better from a safety point of view. Also, there's heatshrink with an integrated layer of hot glue which will even seal the soldering joings airtight - might be a big plus when going for water power.
I was taught to solder by touching the iron to the wire and getting the wire itself hot enough to melt the solder. By touching the solder to the wire instead of touching the solder to the iron it is drawn onto the wire to get the strongest connection with the least resistance. Your iron doesn't get as messy that either.
+Ralph Hernandez Yeah I usually do that too but if I had used that technique for this job I would have been there all day, the iron was really too small for the job. I A butane torch would have been better. In saying that, I've Never had a failed solder joint so that''s good enough for me.
How did you manage to have water with so much pressure? Is it just with the river water and its gravity? What is the pipe diameter and total length and what is the difference in level, or an estimate, between the point where the river water is collected and where you have the turbine?
hi i have watched and now made a power machine exactly as you have shown on this video and im proud of the result so thanks the only problem i have is that my power source is a poor excuse for a stream and i wonder if you have another way of boosting the power source maybe a pump of some kind i eagerly await your answer thanking you abie
At first I thought this was a video about a perpetual motion machine and I was about to be extremely disappointed with your channel. I'm very glad to have been proven wrong.
Instead of rewiring. Can the dc current be sent to a solar mppt charge controller to regulate the voltage and charge a 48v battery instead or one of the new portable solar generators in the market?
hi there Angry Ram the pelton water wheel you have on the washing machine where did you get that from i have done the same with the washing machine getting about 43volts at about 5-6 amps from a homemade pelton wheel but i think a proper pelton wheel should give me more power from the water
Well done. I guess Flux Paste would have made your work a lot easier. With it you can solder things together that usually would not like to be soldered.
Interesting! If I could get my hands on one of those motors, I'd have to try running the conversion as a brushless outrunner with a 3 phase ESC. Whats the power rating of the original motor? Thanks
Marty T Using a large soldering iron in his latest vids doing this again...with sound. For a newly built hydro also www.thebackshed.com/Windmill/FPRewire.asp
Amazing video! However, I am a bit confused about the way you solder the wires. Normally, you should heat up the wire, and melt the solder onto the wire. But in your case, you are melting the solder directly onto the gun?
PowerSports420 Yeah the soldering iron is a little light for the job, I find if I melt the solder on to the gun first, the wire seems to heat up quicker due to more surface area contact
When I was tote to solder in school 30 years ago it was common to heat from the bottom of the wire because heat rises and add the solder to the wire when the wire is hot enough to melt the solder
true if the wire is upright, TBH copper/steel/metals commonly use for electrical conductors conduct heat via conduction so well that convection makes little difference.
High voltage high hertz hard to start turbine with a load applied. See Marty T's latest vids doing this again...with sound. also www.thebackshed.com/Windmill/FPRewire.asp
What is the purpose of this type of connection? I'm having problems with a heavy rotation to generate, I use the delta connection. I would be grateful if you could help me.
Wind the rotor out from the stator so there is less magnetic area exposed to the poles, I do this when I'm using a smaller jet but still need high rpms

Very cool stuff! like it a lot! 10 days ago i knew shit about electricity yet i did understand rewiring! Similar to wiring batteryes in series and parallel to get desired voltage and amph! Did not watched yet how did you run that watering thing! Thx for share

Thanks again for the excellent video. Assume you won lotto or struck it rich somewhere coz I really don't know how you find the time for all the projects you've done!!!
Haha, no haven't won lotto.... yet. Worked hard in my younger days to buy a plot of land. I have very few expenses with free power & water, no rent or mortgage to worry about. I don't need million$ so I retired. Now I can do what I want with my time
Hi thanks for sharing! Such Great innovation! I definitely will try to build it. btw why 3 phase? I plan build windmill power plant but with low rpm, which the best for my case? 2 or 3 phase? thanks!

I was wondering if you could make a playlist for this washer generator. I was telling this Facebook group (diy powerwall) about how you using this water generator to generate electricity and to heat your water heater and furnace. They were very interested.
Hi, good job, i have a 36 slot like that, to power it with 2x12v 7.2A battery in series was problem, please how many volt and amp does it require to power your own
You may only see what appears to be 14 magnets, however each one of these has several poles. get a small magnet and run over them and you will see the individual poles per magnet
It is hard to start the turbine with a load applied and the high voltage high hertz is dangerous and doesn't travel well See Marty T's latest vids doing this again...with sound. also www.thebackshed.com/Windmill/FPRewire.asp
Thank you for the demo! I have a question - what if you make triples of single coils instead of pairs of coils? I would assume that would make the voltage even lower and the amperage higher, right? Any reason why you pairing the coils on the same phase?
There are a few different ways to rewire, heres a good site showing some rewire options depending on voltage and rpm required www.thebackshed.com/Windmill/FPRewire.asp
Factory wiring produces over 400 volts which is dangerous to work with & not useful for charging a battery bank, rewiring drops the voltage & boosts the amps
Angry Ram, the Awesome Man! I am eager to make my own wind turbine but have two questions: 1) There appear to be 3 poles. If this makes 3-phase and I want just 2-phase will I be need to wire differently? 2) I have only 36 coils on my stator, not 42 as in the video. I assume the wiring is the same, just stop 6 coils earlier, right? Thanks for anyone who can enlighten me--I'm at the starting gate, YOU are the staring gun. Bruce Ratcliffe, Science teacher, Fresno, California
***** Hi Bruce, Yes it has 3 poles, why would you want 2 phase? Check out this site - www.thebackshed.com/windmill/FPRewire.asp there are many ways to rewire the stator
You have a 42 pole stator. I have an 18 pole but each pole is larger than each of your poles. So will I still be able to use an 18 pole stator? By the way great video

Tip from an long time certified solderer - always run the iron across a wet sponge to remove excess (it has lost its flux and is now more of a drossy burden when using with flux cored solder), next _always_ heat the work first, before touching the solder to it or you burn the flux up too fast and it can lead to connection stability problems. Then introduce solder to the work, not the iron - it should flow freely like a tight skin hugging the metal (the sign of a good melt) and cool shiny (which is a good join, as opposed to dull which is a cold solder joint). This should all happen quickly so as not to overheat the work and once the solder sticks don't linger with their on or you lose the antioxidizing effects of the flux. If you get a situation where the solder is heading but not sticking either apply flux paste sparingly or flood the area with solder to coax new flux on to it then tap the area quickly to remove excess (if it didn't drop off on its own) or sponge it off immediately after removing the iron (you just want to get rid of the excess solder without lingering. Lingering oxidizes the underlying metal and solder starts to flip as it contains dross now and nothing wants to stick.
I've personally taken to just sticking a q-tip in paste flux (I prefer rosin as it is only acidic when hot and won't degrade wire when below soldering temps) and dab everything for jobs this size and larger (size as in wire that's this heavy).
Anyway, nice job - I know nothing about these alternators and am trying to learn. This was very helpful, thanks!d

I guess soldering since age 9 made me assume this was common knowledge!
"Then introduce solder to the work, not the iron" yes, but. This is also the right moment to put a little(!) bit of solder to the iron so it will make a solid thermal connection to the work. Just lightly touching the iron's tip while moving the solder to the work works fine.

Make sure that's hi temp hot glue, I should think. I've read there are lower temp types.
Interesting Video. May I suggest, however, that you use heatshrink tubing for insulation instead of hot glue?
Sure, it's a bit more work to get the soldering joints just right so you can still slide the heatshrink tubing over the joint, but it's just so much better from a safety point of view. Also, there's heatshrink with an integrated layer of hot glue which will even seal the soldering joings airtight - might be a big plus when going for water power.
You may suggest it but I won't need heatshrink, the turbine has been running 24/7 faultlessly since I built it all those years ago

I was taught to solder by touching the iron to the wire and getting the wire itself hot enough to melt the solder. By touching the solder to the wire instead of touching the solder to the iron it is drawn onto the wire to get the strongest connection with the least resistance. Your iron doesn't get as messy that either.
+Ralph Hernandez Yeah I usually do that too but if I had used that technique for this job I would have been there all day, the iron was really too small for the job. I A butane torch would have been better. In saying that, I've Never had a failed solder joint so that''s good enough for me.
How did you manage to have water with so much pressure? Is it just with the river water and its gravity? What is the pipe diameter and total length and what is the difference in level, or an estimate, between the point where the river water is collected and where you have the turbine?
Arthur other brands of washing machines that could be used in the USA? This s ia really cool set up you've come up with! Great Job!
Amazing, really thanks.
Mahmoud Toboul Thanks man & thanks for watching
hi i have watched and now made a power machine exactly as you have shown on this video and im proud of the result so thanks the only problem i have is that my power source is a poor excuse for a stream and i wonder if you have another way of boosting the power source maybe a pump of some kind i eagerly await your answer thanking you abie
At first I thought this was a video about a perpetual motion machine and I was about to be extremely disappointed with your channel. I'm very glad to have been proven wrong.
WHY does it have to be rewired? To generate lower voltage or some other reason? Thanks for great videos.

Voltage is too high in the factory configuration
Thanks for the video.
Instead of rewiring. Can the dc current be sent to a solar mppt charge controller to regulate the voltage and charge a 48v battery instead or one of the new portable solar generators in the market?
I've never tried that with a factory stator, the only mppts ive used have been 150v max input, the factory stator can produce 400v
Is there a separate video to make the Rectifier?
Coil A is firstly energized, coil B is secondly energized, and Coil C is thirdly energized.
You can easily get rid of the laquer by burning it off with a small blowtorch. or bunsen burner.
hi there Angry Ram the pelton water wheel you have on the washing machine where did you get that from i have done the same with the washing machine getting about 43volts at about 5-6 amps from a homemade pelton wheel but i think a proper pelton wheel should give me more power from the water
very clever can I have if possible an schematic draw of this wiring thank you. Ed
NICE AND EDUCATIVE
What kind of washing machines have these motors in them?
Look for ones with a brushless motor in them....
Well done. I guess Flux Paste would have made your work a lot easier. With it you can solder things together that usually would not like to be soldered.

Interesting! If I could get my hands on one of those motors, I'd have to try running the conversion as a brushless outrunner with a 3 phase ESC. Whats the power rating of the original motor? Thanks
gracias lo voy hacer,,, desde peru
Could you put up a video showing the finished generator producing electricity?
you are good, can you show how you connected it to some enrgy sources like windmill? and can we have enough energy for household? thank you
Why you need to rewire or change the connection?what is the difference if you do not rewire?thanks
Voltage is too high in the factory configuration
I'd like to rewire mine for 36 volts. 24 might be fine. For drive motor for bike. Any links or suggestions

Very intelligent. Thanks for posting.
Amazing video!
However, I am a bit confused about the way you solder the wires. Normally, you should heat up the wire, and melt the solder onto the wire. But in your case, you are melting the solder directly onto the gun?
PowerSports420 Yeah the soldering iron is a little light for the job, I find if I melt the solder on to the gun first, the wire seems to heat up quicker due to more surface area contact
Oh ok, that makes sense. I've never had luck with those "quick heat" guns either. I went through two of them, then just went back to a simple iron.
bit of plumbers flux or liquid flux may help with getting the solder to flow.
When I was tote to solder in school 30 years ago it was common to heat from the bottom of the wire because heat rises and add the solder to the wire when the wire is hot enough to melt the solder
true if the wire is upright, TBH copper/steel/metals commonly use for electrical conductors conduct heat via conduction so well that convection makes little difference.
Hi Angry Ram,
What a great shares given. If do not rewire as per your video, how much it Amp and Voltage? was it ok not to rewire?
MOHD FAISA Osman With factory wiring it can produce 400+volts, you should be very careful if using it this way, it can give a good zap.
Why was the original wiring changed? Would it have worked this way as well? What are the benefits of the change? Thank you.
High voltage high hertz hard to start turbine with a load applied.

What is the purpose of this type of connection? I'm having problems with a heavy rotation to generate, I use the delta connection. I would be grateful if you could help me.
Wind the rotor out from the stator so there is less magnetic area exposed to the poles, I do this when I'm using a smaller jet but still need high rpms
Using a soldering flux/paste really helps in wetting and preventing oxides from forming (better connections).
Very very good job my friend 👍

So... You recon I can use these kind of motors to power a sail plane as well?
Would it be strong enough for that if i used four of these?
Haha.. not sure it would meet aviation standards
Very cool stuff! like it a lot! 10 days ago i knew shit about electricity yet i did understand rewiring! Similar to wiring batteryes in series and parallel to get desired voltage and amph! Did not watched yet how did you run that watering thing! Thx for share

Thanks again for the excellent video. Assume you won lotto or struck it rich somewhere coz I really don't know how you find the time for all the projects you've done!!!
Haha, no haven't won lotto.... yet.
Worked hard in my younger days to buy a plot of land. I have very few expenses with free power & water, no rent or mortgage to worry about.
I don't need million$ so I retired. Now I can do what I want with my time

very envious, well done, looks like you have an amazing lifestyle. one day i'll get outta the big smoke and start enjoying life!
Buddhanz1 hats off bro....
Great thnx. will do it myself in my village house and let you see
Hi thanks for sharing! Such Great innovation! I definitely will try to build it.
btw why 3 phase? I plan build windmill power plant but with low rpm, which the best for my case? 2 or 3 phase?
thanks!
can show it to us in operation?
ducatijim
Ahhh i clicked it!! I fucking clicked it AHHHHHHHH
Doesn't work for me.... LOL
great ideas got me thinking this project gonna have try
YOU ARE A GENIUS!!!!SEII UN GENIO
Would you understand how a mini vacuum spark gap between each stator leg could affect the electrical generation?

I was wondering if you could make a playlist for this washer generator. I was telling this Facebook group (diy powerwall) about how you using this water generator to generate electricity and to heat your water heater and furnace. They were very interested.

Hi, good job, i have a 36 slot like that, to power it with 2x12v 7.2A battery in series
was problem, please how many volt and amp does it require to power your own
Hi. I am interested in your video. How and where can i buy pelton wheel.

Hello, i have one Question . is the orientation of the fourteen magnets in the rotating drum + - + - etc...?
You may only see what appears to be 14 magnets, however each one of these has several poles. get a small magnet and run over them and you will see the individual poles per magnet
You rewire the stator to reduce the output voltage correct? Why not just leave the stator as is and step the voltage down externally?
It is hard to start the turbine with a load applied and the high voltage high hertz is dangerous and doesn't travel well
See Marty T's latest vids doing this again...with sound.
also www.thebackshed.com/Windmill/FPRewire.asp
Thank you for the demo! I have a question - what if you make triples of single coils instead of pairs of coils? I would assume that would make the voltage even lower and the amperage higher, right? Any reason why you pairing the coils on the same phase?
There are a few different ways to rewire, heres a good site showing some rewire options depending on voltage and rpm required www.thebackshed.com/Windmill/FPRewire.asp
Good Work

I really like this, and I will try to build one myself. can you explain the purpose of rewiring? i'm a newbie. thank you
Factory wiring produces over 400 volts which is dangerous to work with & not useful for charging a battery bank, rewiring drops the voltage & boosts the amps
Why not use a transformer instead?
did you check the voltage and amperage with original factory wiring configuration? did you rewire to get more amp?
Excellent vid, but dude, you gotta get some thicker solder😎
Angry Ram, the Awesome Man! I am eager to make my own wind turbine but have two questions:
1) There appear to be 3 poles. If this makes 3-phase and I want just 2-phase will I be need to wire differently?
2) I have only 36 coils on my stator, not 42 as in the video. I assume the wiring is the same, just stop 6 coils earlier, right?
Thanks for anyone who can enlighten me--I'm at the starting gate, YOU are the staring gun.
Bruce Ratcliffe, Science teacher, Fresno, California
***** Hi Bruce, Yes it has 3 poles, why would you want 2 phase? Check out this site - www.thebackshed.com/windmill/FPRewire.asp there are many ways to rewire the stator
What voltage would it produce if not rewired?
400vac
So by welding the lines together is he ultimately reversing the direction of the electrical energy?
No.

Can you use most washers for this design? As long as they have the wire and magnet down at bottom, right?
Hi my motor got 36 pole so it will be 6 groups right? Thank you.
Depends on your speed, load, voltage. this site shows the most common wiring configurations www.thebackshed.com/Windmill/FPRewire.asp
I need run 24 volts system to charge battery thank you.
The website explains alot i got it now thank you.
You have a 42 pole stator. I have an 18 pole but each pole is larger than each of your poles. So will I still be able to use an 18 pole stator? By the way great video
***** It should work ok, one way to find out. What is the output with factory wiring?
