Showmans engine generator

[ScrumpyParticipant @scrumpy]

Hi Len many thanks for all your time and help that you have put into this challenging subject but could you just clear a few points ( F1 -500 ma what voltage would I require ) ( R2 R3 is it 6RB or 6R8 ) also if I went down the line of Mike s suggestion how would I wire it up sorry for being so thick on this .

I'm sure many people will have read the posts on generators producing light , I feel quite humble to think that so many people have helped on this project thank you ,and I'm sure many people in the next few years will read these posts with interest Derek

Derek,

The resistor value is 6R8, or 6.8 ohms, or blue/grey/silver in colours on its body….

The fuse just needs to be a standard 20mm glass fuse at the rating specified….( try your local Maplins)

As for building the circuit or wiring it up, what did you have in mind?
