<DIV style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif; font-size:10pt;"><DIV>Hank, If you did have one I wonder if that would work. I think they put out about 10 amps. But there may be a duty cycle issue running a charger for that purpose may shorten it's life. What about just running a AC motor off of a regular AC generator for the sole purpose of getting across the lake? </DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV>Brian<BR><BR>--- personal_submersibles@psubs.org wrote:<BR><BR>From: hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org><BR>To: Brian Cox via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org><BR>Subject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] 36v alternator<BR>Date: Mon, 16 Oct 2017 23:09:44 +0000 (UTC)<BR><BR></DIV><DIV style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><DIV></DIV>
<DIV>Brian, I don't have a 36v charger. I charge my bank 12v at a time.</DIV><DIV>Hank</DIV><DIV><BR></DIV>

I am installing the original 2hp drive in the escape pod with the jettisoning prop assembly. I will feed the 2 hp 24v motor with 36v so it will be 3hp. The motor is rated at 3hp 36v. I will run a power cable from the generator to 3 12v batteries in the pod, and I will travel on that power. When I dive I will switch to my 36v agm bank. That should work since I am towing the tender anyways. I am having trouble finding a 36v alternator. I want an alternator with internal regulator. I guess in a pinch I can use 3 12v alternators but then it is not compact anymore. Any ideas?</DIV><DIV>Hank </DIV></DIV></DIV>_______________________________________________
