You could add a joule thief circuit to output a steady voltage. this kind of circuit is used in shaking torches and is designed to be used with coils in generator circuits.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, your videos are amazing! I really hope to see more of them. Also you might be able to use a capacitor to smooth out all the the blinking in the leds
It would be cool if you added a gravity battery and then attached the gearing up to the crank shaft so you could both increase the rpm and keep a mostly steady current flow. You could even add a tiny lever to release the waight on the gravity battery. :o
You can probably increase the efficiency by using electromagnets instead of permanent magnets like real generators use. You'd need to make lego brushes and use either use a magnet generator like this one on the same shaft or a feedback circuit to power the coils.
I would absolutely love to try building a self-exciting generator using electromagnets, but still need to do a lot more reading on how to get it to work (and to start and control when it's running). Cool idea, cheers for the suggestion!

You need 2 cheap things to make it more efficient than that. The first one is a full bridge rectifier that takes the negative part of the AC voltage the reverses it to make it a kind of DC voltage. You can implement such kind of rectifier with 4 simple diodes if you search on internet. Then at the output of the rectifier you need a capacitor in order to smooth the voltage and make it stable. You will see that the leds will stop blinking and it will be producing more stable voltage.
Yup, later in the video those are the exact things I used to power the speaker and phone. The small block with pins was the full bridge rectifier and the capacitor bank was used to smooth the output!
This is why I subbed to your channel! I absolutely love your content, and you are a genuine inspiration to many people, myself included! And I love your funny bits like testing electricity with your mouth, so unexpected 🤣
Can do if a device needs higher voltages! Though for lower voltage devices, the losses in efficiency with higher gear ratios tend to make it perform significantly worse
Now you only need to create a gravity battery and hook it to the crank, and you're sorted. Will have to figure out the proper gearing and a way to stop the weight from accelerating beyond a certain point, but I'm sure you'll sort it.
Love the way you think! I've actually already made one - using an escapement (tick tock) to slow the feed, and a big magnet as the pendulum. Love the idea of gravity batteries - thanks for the suggestion!
@@JamiesBrickJams IDK what a rectifier is but if you mean the thing that uses 4 diodes to make the backwards power forwards and the forwards power also forwards than yes
@@JamiesBrickJams makes sense. I imagine the blinking isn’t the power going up and neutral and down and neutral, but rather up and neutral and up and neutral, where neutral is no power and down is backwards power. I thought the blinks meant a lack of rectifying
Here's an insane idea, change the gear ratios and add a lego motor to trigger the gears. Can you make this a perpetual motion machine powering its self
Haha I wish. Unfortunately there are massive losses between generation and driving a motor. This wouldn't output nearly enough current to drive a lego motor with any speed.
Can do, increasing speed will increase voltage! But at the cost of current and efficiency. So if you need the voltage higher, it might be worth it. But otherwise you're better off using as little gearing as possible
Hey, it's a simple 25mm neodymium magnet and some thin copper wire! Feeding it is just a small Bluetooth amp that takes music from my phone. I've a video on how it was made if you're interested
You could ... Although what you're really doing is turning mechanical energy into electrical energy. So if you did that, you'd have a very lossy system of generators. You'd be better off putting all of your mechanical input into just one single generator and using that to power something
It is a beauty! I actually just found it on Amazon for around 12 bucks. It's not the most efficient at around 88%, but I love the easy to understand display and the fact it can take a good 40 watts before needing a heatsink!
You pointed the microphone the wrong way again (5:10). With that microphone (I believe it's the AT2020) you want the logo/side with the light to be facing your audio source since it will basically only pick up sound from that side.
Have you tried to increase the cranking speed with an electric drill? Will that make any difference in the time needed to charge the phone? Obviously that will drain the drill’s battery but still.
I haven't tried that, no - it would almost certainly increase the output massively. At least until it warps or breaks the Lego. Better to use the battery powering the drill 😉 But as a proof of concept, it would certainly charge the phone quicker
I wish 😁 Unfortunately there will be massive losses in between them. The generator really isn't very efficient, so the output isn't enough to even drive a small motor. Motors generally need quite a significant current to drive them
Thanks a lot! 😊 To be honest, I just didn't bother preventing sideways movement because the magnets are so strong - they don't budge at all, even when spinning fast!

1. Build a magnet powered super collider. 2. Put the crank handle into a groove where the ball is being spun/pushed so that the handle is pushed by the ball. 3. Free Energy!
It outputs around 9 to 10 volts, but the current isn't particularly high, so it's not very good for driving motors unfortunately (which need a lot of current)
If your phone supports fast charging, it will almost certainly survive more than 5V, and has a chance of charging faster with it. Though unless you want to implement a negotiation circuit, you'll need to look up the details of your phone yourself.
Can do, but the gear ratio results in massive efficiency losses - so voltage will increase, but current will drop. And when attached to a load, the losses become very noticeable
Ha ha! In terms of quantum mechanics, Einstein proposed a machine, that, based on the uncertainty principle, was a perpetual motion. This showed that quantum mechanics was at odds with evidence that energy is conserved. But I’m sure you’re working on this one for your next project 😂. Your projects are hugely engaging!😊👍
If you mean powered by something else, certainly! Hook it up to some wind power or hydro turbine and it'd run very well. I'm currently playing with some of those
You should add a LEGO motor to the end of the crank so u can use the energy created to power the motor to create more energy and so on... if this theory doesn’t work please tell me why as I am open to correct answers about my theory
I see where you're going with that theory. However that's the common 'perpetual motion machine' proposal, and it breaks the fundamental law of conservation of energy. Essentially what will happen is that energy is lost to its surroundings. So when you crank the handle, although some electricity will be generated, much of the energy will be lost to mechanical friction, sound, heat, etc. And so the amount generated will be smaller than what would be needed to feed the motor to turn it. In fact in this case, my generator is VERY inefficient. Motors generally require massive current to drive them. Mine really doesn't output much
You mean like a plate of copper? I'd imagine it wouldn't generate anything really. Your output voltage is proportional to the number of loops of wire. Without loops, you wouldn't generate anything
Yep, the gearing causes efficiency loss to friction and heat. That's why I stressed that less gearing is preferable, as this is where your efficiency loss comes from. In an ideal world, you'd have no gearing, and would tailor the number of coil windings to generate the approximate voltage you need at a given speed
😁 My multimeter is KAIWEETS brand! I'm always amazed at the intricate builds Jamie, hell I'm impressed with the phone cradle/charger stand 😆 I've gotta get off of my ass and start building some crude projects soon or I'll lose my mind.

And yeah Kaiweets is pretty sweet - I found them from another UA-camr. They're popular for a reason. Good luck man 👌
In general, yup! If you attach a load to it (e.g., a high powered light), you can feel the resistance increase. So if you increase the force of winding, or speed of winding, the output will also increase. All it's really doing is converting mechanical power into electrical power. So the more mechanical power you put in, the more electrical output you'll get out
It would ... But there's only so much torque Lego can handle. With that said though, there are definitely better designs that can handle more torque, and I'll certainly be experimenting with them 😉

Add a gearbox to lower the amount of rotations you need on the handle to make the magnets spin even quicker
Can do if a device needs higher voltages! Though for lower voltage devices, the losses in efficiency with higher gear ratios tend to make it perform significantly worse

It wouldn't be portable, but you could connect the crank to a wheel and weight similar to a clock.

Wait what if you use Lego piston engine or lego motor for this generator so you dont need to do that manual

Lol like that would help a ton because its atomated and it would make more eletricity instead of manualy hand crancking it
I want you to try to make a ceiling fan with light kit that’s the light in the motor are controlled by pull chains
fun fact: you just assembled a motor, if you give electricity to the coils, the crank will spin
You'd still need a smart motor controller for this setup, but yup, in principle it's sort of a motor too
You pointed the microphone the wrong way again (5:10). With that microphone (I believe it's the AT2020) you want the logo/side with the light to be facing your audio source since it will basically only pick up sound from that side.
That's about as close to parallel to the speaker I could get with this tiny mic tripod - will try a different approach next time!
Should use a flywheel to help efficiency
