Re: [LUG] OT: Bicycle and electrics help

["Trevorexwick.com" <Trevor@xxxxxxxxxx>]

A windscreen wipe motor off a car might be a better bet (Ac mains motor will be little use)

But it will be hard work generating much electricity. A classic dynamo on a bike only powers a couple of bulbs and slows you down quite a bit.

I will see if I can find how much power a cyclist produces.

Hi Guys

Completely off-topic but since most of you are whizz kids, I thought I would ask for some help please?

I'm looking for help in wiring up an electric wheel to a push bike and also generating electricity from a washing motor. The idea is to be able to pedal normally or run an electric wheel to power the four wheel bike (already built). Then to be able to mount it on supports and then pedal and run an old electric motor. Turning this motor makes power and drives a blender or bubble machine.

Thanks

Rich
