Magnetic strength, and small generators?
I am trying to make a small electric generator via a wind turbine( say make 5 volts ), i want to know what type of magnet to look for. I was told a neodyniam one is good, if so what strength do i look for ( what units do i measure in ).
I know all this depends on rotor speed and number of coils.
Thanks:
Try searching around for rare earth magnets. Thinkgeek.com sells them, or woodcraft.com.
