Well guys, I like this place already! Been browsing the threads and I find a lot of stuff that interest me. I`m here because there seems to be more talk about inverters than anywhere else and I`d like to build one. Hope the members here can help. I have an "experimental" Permanant magnet DC generator I built myself and I`d like to build an inverter to go with it. Its a work in progress is and prone to wild mood swings occasionally, so an off the shelf inverter will never work here. I have so far lit about 1000 watts of light bulbs with unclean power but believe it capable of more. Output voltage is determined by speed but also on how I connect my coils. Right now I have chosen 40-60vdc range (about as low as I can go) because I originally intended to use a common 48vdc to 120vac of the shelf inverter. I can step up voltages in stages to close to about whatever I need but hitting and staying on an exact target voltage is more difficult. Most circuits I find use batteries, often 12vdc and are 220vac. Problem is, I lack the skills to convert most circuits out there. I want something simple with no over/under voltage protection, buzzers, est. Something that can take a little abuse and easy for me to fix. I chose to use the EGS002 module, and a common drive circuit often associated with it. I believe it will need more mosfets among other things I don`t know how to do. I can follow a schematic and build on a breadboard or prototype board but thats about my limit for now. I just don`t know how to compute values or design anything. Maybe someone here has proto PCBs that would work for me. Looking for some advice on how to proceed......
