HI.
How to start a motor?
Sounds weird, right!
Well, I found out that you can produce electricity by rotating the shaft on a motor, I'm talking about, in this case, a microwave plate motor.
I heard about it on YouTube, so I grabbed the chance and unmounted our microwave oven which was broken anyway, so my wife didn't get upset.
Lo and behold, I was able to produce 380V by turning the shaft/axle fast enough, and I was able to light a light bulb.
Very cool indeed, since I'm new to that kind of stuff, but I ran into a problem.
Even though I'm able to generate 120v, 240v or even 380v I'm not able to start an electrical motor, like a blender/mixer or a ventilator/fan, why is that?
I'm able to turn on a light bulb, a led, and even the electric spark to turn on the stove, but anything that has a motor on it won't start.
Even one of those little tiny motors, that runs on a 1.5 AA battery didn't run.
So my question is, how do I, by producing my own energy/electricity, make an electrical motor run.
Thank you,
Fabricius
