How strong are the magnets used?
How many coils/turns/metres of wire are in a single generator?
Diameter of rotor/stator?
Is it kept at a stable spinning pace? What is this pace?
What voltage/current/power comes raw from this generator?
How is pace of rotor managed/maintained?
Couldn't find this out anywhere I have looked :(
