congrats!

i have a suggestion, please, toss that thing away from you as far as you can.

Yeah i had this problem twice. First time i unpluged and pluged the cable back in and it worked The second time i screwd in the lose screw on the hotend itself. The one or 2 screws that hold the heating element. No idea why that was the problem but it works fine now

Sorry if you already mentioned but what filament material is being used to print all of these? Have you tried with other filaments? I'd be curious to see this test but with the more modern filaments

The outside ring should be more of a parabolic shape to increase the pressure of incoming water flow. The flat angle causes the incoming water pressure to decrease. You can make the input side longer in order to get the parabolic slope. Think of a rocket motor exhaust flowing in reverse, just not quite as long. Also, it looks like the outlet is a smaller diameter than the input, but that could just be the camera angle. If it is smaller, increase it. You don’t want the water flow restricted after it passes through the propeller. It will be hard to hold because higher pressure. It may be easier to hold if you use a shorter stick that has a handle that is parallel to the flow of the water. Ideally, the smallest diameter should be where the blades are. Think gradual changes, not angles when designing. Excellent first try. Keep at it

Did you measure the water flow and pressure getting to the turbine to calculate actual efficiency? Given that you do not use any sort of MPPT I would assume it to be somewhat bad.

Nice videos od micro hidro power plant :) ...i think you need Moore voltage at least 13.6 to charge a 12v battery ....with 1inch pipe one nozzle i get on 4.5 bar a current of 2.9 and 13.6V about 40watts...

I would try to use a brushless Motor, the flat ones for big drones with very low kv rating and a rectifier. With low voltage like in your case, its important to use shotky diodes with a low pass thrue voltage. Using a BL motor you might get away without a belt, so you can save those losses as well. And with a constantly variable load you can try to aim for the point of maximum power.

Try the Tesla design

main issue here is the generator... the load. what you are seeing is jacobs law. theres the resistance of the generator itself, and the same current in the resistor must flow through the generator windings... being a brushed DC motor with commutator losses doesnt help things... theres an ideal load for any generator. you find that any generator has an ideal speed. so does a turbine. as a pelton, you are extracting the maximum work form the water if the wheel is spinning at half the speed of the water. if its slower, its overloaded. if its faster, its underloaded. any splashing is a loss, water should fall "dead" from the buckets. any that continues around takes energy to spin, etc, etc... but, at the ideal speed of the turbine, is the generator capable of loading the turbine to get that power out? can the generator deliver that power to a load at that speed? if you want to test the turbine, you need to dyno it... measure the torque on the generator with a load cell through various load resistances. not voltsxamps consumed in a resistance. its the wrong measurement... because the same current that flows through that resistance also flows through the generator itself. as a brake, you can measure the torque due to current flow from a short to an open circuit, and that is the true power being produced/converted. whats in the resistor is only the portion of power dissipated in the resistor... not the total energy! if you want to test the generator, then you have to spin it and do much the same... how many watts as torque over time are actually converted to volts x amps in any given load? what is the ideal load? theres more to it than grabbing any old motor, resistor, and wheel and throwing them together, but its not that complex, really? just have to match things, alter certain parameters to suit each application...

A label to read must be very hard .... 🤣🤣🤣

Plastic turbine wont work, cavitation and sand in water will shred it in a hour.

i am trying really hard to figure out the point of it other than just a toy to play with..

It's crazy to think this has been 2 years in the making. It's only made it this far because of you!

Great vid , very dangerous to touch linea still under tensión!! Carefull there .

“Only fell on my head once” honest statement lmao

my anycubic i 3 mega s has the exact same problem i will try replacing the cabe i hope this will help

can you maybe publisch a list of the components

in a laboratory test, the most important thing is to correctly arrange the results in a table😅

I am honestly surprised a voltage and amperage reading was not obtainable with the generator setup you had in this video, seems like it was getting a decent amount of rotation...

Great setup. Nicely printed

💋 "promo sm"

I hope you're working on a patent. Expert level Car detailing has been trending these past few years and this powerful tiny machine has so much utility and convenience.

cant see a thing

I just use my leaf blower and it has a dual purpose yard work and drying my car...🤣

Camera man failed

I just posted a video on how I built it check it out: czcams.com/video/iLXUXPgOxpA/video.html

Would anyone be interested in buying just the 3D printed shell until I finish my testing for the whole unit?

How much boost on your honda civic?

Where can I order one please can you tell me

That's wild 🫨

These are so awesome. I want one so bad 🥲

What test should I do next?

But why

i want to see

can u drop a tut an how to build your self one?

That’s crazy

Just found a way to keep my PS4 cool!

But it’s just a ducted motor hooked up to a lipo battery

Even though I have no use or need for it, I need one in my life

What material did you make them out of?

Having your fingers so close to spinning objects sure seems sussy Awesome demonstration otherwise!

Anyway we could communicate? I would love you purchase this.. I actually could out it to could use at my work.

Wow! That just blew my mind! I got a better one tho . Did you know that when you jump both your feet leave the ground and don't touch the ground until you land?? Bet you didn't know, princess

Omg thanks 🙏 that's is the my Case

It got wayyy too hot 🔥

An actual snowblower. Nice!

This seems useful and all but can’t a leaf blower do the same? But I think this would be a great thing for traveling to a colder place and having a portable snow car cleaner thing.

Y E S, more power is needed. Why? Why not

Does it have a heating element in it?
