Jetijs,

I really like how clean your set up is! Very nice.

Nice graphs also! Thank you for posting them.

One factor that I kept looking for in your report was how much work was expended in each "loading cycle". From what I can piece together it ranged between 1.92 amps and 2.88 amps. Is this correct?

I hope you don't mind...I have a few other questions.

What kind of bearing are you using?

Have you tried running your unit at a different RPM that consumes less than 160mA of the primary? (to see if it changes your COP)

Have you tried running your unit at a different RPM that consumes more than 160mA of the primary? (to see if it changes your COP)

If you have continued your load tests since this published data, is the battery becoming more conditioned? (have a larger "tested capacity")

Thanks in advance.

Kevin
