can this motor be used as DC motor generator for wind energy model ? If so, how much in Volt or watt (ampere) it would generate?

The faster you spin it, the more voltage it will produce. The current will depend on how much torque your turbine can generate.

I don't own this model, but I do have another 10" O2Cool fan that I use in a solar setup. @12 volts it draws about 3/4 of an amp, on high, so about 8 watts. I'm sure this one is similar.

I think the motor would have to be changed. I don't know if a 220v motor is available. As for power, wattage would be the same. With double the volts the amps used would be cut in half. volts X amps = volts. Peace.

Hi. I don't know generators but this unit doesn't use much power. I have it plugged into a socket that has many other things running. Only time I blew a breaker was when I had a space heater going on the same breaker.. plus a tv and my electric blanket. Whoops. I would think any generator that could handle 110 would handle this. Probably better to think bigger. I live in the mountains and the power goes out quite a bit. I use my Friedrich but when power goes out here I use a Lennox wood stove for heat and cooking. Also.. if the unit you are asking about has a cool feature.. that is a selling feature. It has heat.. cool and dehumidify. I had mine permanently installed by my computer desk. I would think you need to research the generator you are looking at first. How much power does it supply. If it only supplies a light bulb I doubt it would work. My unit requires a circuit rating of 15 amp and 125 volt. I would think you should look at the generator rating and see if it meets.. or better.. exceeds that rating. I hope that helps.

I'm not an expert but I don't think this thing draws hardly any watts or amps etc. I lost my instruction booklet because half of the unit stopped working and MinnKota said it can't be fixed. I kept it to use as a trickle charger for cars, boats etc. I would think almost any generator would make this charger work. It' basically a trickle charger so it's gonna run your generator a long time to charge a battery a battery. You might want a more powerful charger depending on your use to shorten the generator run time..

I believe that the answer is yes from what I read in the manual. I am using it for solar only at the moment, but I might add wind when I have time for another project.

Never tried it, but I am almost certain that you can. Looking at the schematic for the generator, there is a separate winding on the generator for the DC, so I think it operates independently of the AC power output.

Horsepower can be converted into watts by remembering 1 HP = 746.70 watts. Doing the math, 3250/746.7 = 4.35 HP. But remember, there is inrush current on a motor, the normal extra current it takes to get a motor started. I'd say the best you can probably truly expect this generator to handle is maybe a 3 HP motor. Hope that helps. Ron

Sure. It's 185 W, 115 V, 1.6 A, 60 Hz. Hope that helps! I've never had any trouble with this motor, either!

This is a 12 volt DC fan, so you need a DC power supply. I use a computer power supply which works great and can handle the high load - 30-40 watts. This blower is intended for marine use, but I use it to boost a dryer vent line and has survived the heat and humidity for 2 years now.

Howdy Beth Negative. This generator is good for about 1600 running watts or about 13.5A.Hope this helps. BernieD 0429151718 MST

I have not used mine with motor running as of yet,I have it in a Rv and used breathing machine ( c-pap) and also had a 20" box fan running @ same time,when first turned on it said it had 12.68 volts,ran both all nite (7 hrs) and when I looked before shuting off it said 12.06 volts so it didn't draw to much.....I have a 200hp O/B and it only has a 35amp alt so they don't put out much amperage,,,,,,,

There are considerations. Note the 1.5A rating. Also when the motor turns off, the stored energy in the motor's inductance needs to go somewheren and there will be an inductive kick... which brings me to "no" because this is not simple. DC or AC application?

Don't know the amps but I have used it with my Honda EU2000i generator with no problem. Might pull up The Poulan website.

I wouldn't think so. It isn't like a laptop, which has a power supply that can adapt for the different voltages. I think the motor would just burn up.

I'm not sure about the motor itself, but the whole unit runs off the 110 V house current. I just used it as a replacement for my noisy old fan motor.

I do not believe it can be used with a wind turbine system. It has no dump load capacity. When the wind generator is putting out more than the batteries can take, it has no way to divert that energy to another load (water heater, air heater, etc).
