I make 220v Electric Generator from a Microwave Transformer

I turn microwave transformer into a welding machine new technology https://youtu.be/U-ub_hPVo1k?si=n9_ncSCngAyl2QEB

Coming from Texas, Nice work! You should make a Stirling Engine to make the generator spin.

Great job mate! Frequency and tension are likely to get off the 50hz, since there doesn't seem to be any sort of regulation. However, all the machines you connected can work fine on a wide range. This is a good generator made from a small petrol engine and a microwave transformer. It's hard to tell how much power it can provide, but then I don't think it is a good idea to push it too far without any sort of regulation. Microwave transformers usually work at 1200w, so I wouldn't feel comfortable going over that power. Then there's frequency regulation (it defines the water pump motor 'no-load' speed) and tension regulation - too much tension and that electric cooker is likely to burn some control component. There's some information on this on the internet, let me know if you need any help to move on to working on that sort of V1.1 improvement.

What would really be better is to attach a 3 to 1 ratio Waterwheel to your homemade power generator 👍instead of depending on a gasoline run drive source. Also, how about a rectified circuit to help stabilize the current at 115 Volts AC @ 20 Amps Max ? This would help compensate for any variations in revolutions of your rotor to a certain extent and smooth out your AC cycles to 50 or 60 Hz.

His wife will be so happy 😊 she's got all she needs!! 💓😂

This is a very good idea, but a better renovation could have been done. For example, by pushing the second 220 volt winding further back, a cavity would be opened in the microwave oven core suitable for the outer diameter of the rotor, because there is a very suitable space for this process in the two cores. A round hole suitable for this rotor would be opened on a milling machine so that a better magnetic coupling would be provided and this magnet rotor would be able to induce more effective induction currents in 220 windings and generate electricity. If it were integrated later, for example, even at lower revs, there would probably be relatively less fluctuation or flickering. These are my own personal opinions of course, But the 220 volt AC winding connected in series only provided an efficiency like 220 volt AC, because of the magnetic fluxes of this leakage core magnet output. If these leakages were further minimized, it is highly probable that the electricity generation efficiency would be much better, like the rotating squirrel cages of shadow-pole induction motors. Still, it's a good attempt and a good (quite successful for electricity generation purpose) renovation, well done. Good luck with.

Those are some big microwaves you had, most transformers are around 5kv from microwaves. Neon signs have 10kv+ ones.

Look at this mortal with his impressive primitive works

Nice work! But the steel plates used after the aluminium fail for holding the rotor can act as a magnetic short circuit that heats up the metal and lets you loose some of the energy. I also would try to use 3 or 6 coils to get 3 phase AC.

I recommend 500 turns on each side of Transformer with thicker magnet wire to give you more amps. Fill both sides of transformer fully with wire. Use n52 neodymium magnets and shave the epoxy down more to a 1/16 of an inch. Use 4 of these microwave transformers. You can also go to a car parts store and purchase a mechman alternator then hook up a solar panel to power the alternator , then spin the shaft with a motor and you get a nice source of power.

Sir; by welding the laminated core as you have done, the reduction of eddy currents is bypassed and excessive heat will be the result. How hot is this project getting on the core and does it effect the efficiency very much?

The best thing about it is the feeling you get when you are using this energy knowing that it is a separate Entity that you made as if it’s a Nother part of you that’s creating energy because he will get to do so awesome video man

This is really awesome. You made something you could use from something you likely didn't have a use for at the time. Although it's rugged, it works.

Very good! Show us some Voltage, Ampere, RPM, Hertz etc.

It was funny when you showed how aluminum couldn't be welded with a welder like mine. If it would have welded it would have surprised the crap out of me. Loved the video

Now this is someone who can think straight and show a good natured human thing without the clutter. Nice art and excellent power output. I can see a host of applications and other sources to spin the rotor, great up-cycle.

Man I've been having issues with generators in Washington, people always spending $2000.00 on generators. I now see how they work. Thanks man, I'm now 100% sure my generators motor was too old, it backfired one day and never started again. If ida known the motor blew I'd have gotten a new one. Instead I got a different generator that's going to suffer the same fate. I need to learn how to work on motors apparently. Awesome. I do have the old one still so maybe I can learn from that one?

Good job brother, parece que ese generador tiene poco frenado.

Coils need to be closer to the rotor and the top side should be welded with lamination plates Same as bottom.

there is a big loss of energy because the gap between the coils and magnets is huge
