Any idea how much it can produce?anorlunda said:Calculate the circumference of the pipe you are winding it around, then multiply that by 400.

Thanks again for the adviceanorlunda said:The link you provided is post #1 showed it lighting a LED. That is a first guess of how much it can make.
By the way, we measure power in watts, not volts.
By the way, the link said 500 turns, not 400,
Good luck, it sounds like a fun experiment.
A crank generator works by converting mechanical energy from the turning of a crank into electrical energy through the use of magnets and coils of copper wire.
The purpose of a crank generator is to provide a portable and renewable source of electricity for small devices or emergency situations.
The amount of copper wire needed for a 3V output from a crank generator will vary depending on the design and efficiency of the generator. Generally, the more copper wire wound around the generator, the higher the output voltage will be.
No, a crank generator is not powerful enough to provide electricity for larger devices. It is best suited for small devices such as radios, flashlights, or cell phones.
Yes, it is important to not over-crank the generator as it can cause damage to the internal components. Also, be cautious of any sharp edges on the crank and handle it carefully to avoid injury.
