Hey everyone! It's the Crazy Fish Farmer back again. I just wanted to show everybody what I have done and what I discovered. On this old alternator, I actually had a smaller pulley, right on the front of it. Now I don't if that's actual pulley, but it has the V-Groove short pulley. So I had to basically move the alternator back a little bit and then weld the bracket back on. But I just want to show you what I've discovered in my adventure of learning more about alternators.
I am going to try to crank this van up, I have started to run the battery out so hopefully it will crank it up. Here, we go. Alright! This alternator, I went in and modified it and turned it into a motor. So that alternator is running this motor. Now, I am going to bring RPMs up, and then I am going to shut it down, and I hope you have definitely surprised with that -- and put it together and make it work like this, because this will allow me to run another alternator on that pulley to give me more RPM.
Now, I don't know, if this is going to be able to handle, putting that kind of strain on it to actually run another alternator to create more horsepower or more RPMs to give us more voltage and more average, or more voltage directly. Now, I hope that made sense, if I can crank it up again here.
It sounds like that alternator really don't like it all that much. Now, I guess that I did put that other pulley on. If I can do this one hand in here, finding a good ground somewhere. Now, getting my fingers chewed off by that alternator. Now, at an ideal, for 13 Volts. Before I was at 6 Volts.
So, it's really strange. I am not quite sure what's going on, but you can see it for yourself. But ultimately that alternator is spinning as fast as I want. I am not sure. I don't have any way to check the RPM. Let's put a load on this. Yeah, I can hear that alternator working hard now. I don't know, believe me, I just want to share this with everybody. I don't know what it's going to do for me, but this is discovery.
