What i got is a permanent magnet 2 1/4HP@130v DC treadmill motor and everyone know those work awesome as generators. I've also got a 1000Watt inverter which needs an input voltage of 11 to 15 volts DC. Now if the input voltage to the inverter drops below 11 volts it sounds a low voltage warning and will shut off at 10.5v, it will also shut off if the input voltage goes above 15v.
Now with this motor its easy enough to get 12v out of it but say i connected up the motor with a belt to my bike is there some way i can get the voltage the motor puts out to stay around 12 volts no matter how fast the motor is turning?
