Very impressive project. It seems somewhat similar to a pump jack on oil wells.

At 18:1 would it not just be 100 lbs. divided by 18. Which gives you 5.5 lbs. output force. As long as the resistance in system is zero. Not and expert but that's the way I see it. Or I'm am misunderstanding your question.

It may be to your benefit to just get a larger generator that can output some amount of power at lower rpm. You would then get rid of most if not all the parasitic resistances of your gear system.

hi, this device is with no load, the challenge will be to find if there is a gear combination that will work 100 pounds falling force to over come the parasitic load of the gear train and still have enough power to produce more electricity than the wiper motor is using to lift the 25 pound weight. Thanks again. I will be adding more weights and then reduce the gears to see if there a combination that will produce more than 30 watts.

no load, manual operation, 50 pounds falling, about 100 AC

You are building a very impressive machine!

If you are doing a full disclosure, you could film your machine from some distance in order to give your fans a complete overview.

Do you plan to run your machine (once it is finished) only from capacitors between output (from some dynamo) and input (to the drive motor)? This would be a good way to show over unity (in case it is a self runner) and would free you from all measuring problems. Some batteries during startup would be acceptable.

I am looking forward to your results.

Greetings, Conrad

I just realized I can remove one gear set and replace the transmission braking load with the load created when generating electricity. :)
