Stirling Engine generating power / electricity

Here Pete's Stirling Engine generating an electrical current. Magnets are placed along the edge of the spinning disk. Placed fairly close to that disk is another disk holding 12 coils, all linked. When the Stirling engine is running, it spins the disk, which allows the magnets to interact with the coils, hence producing a current of power. As this prototype is optimised and evolved, it will be capable of producing a stronger current... a god level would be when it is able to charge cellphone. South Africa live below the convenience line, but cellphone penetration is extremely high. And mobile phones can liberate people due to the power of multimedia communications for one's business and personal life.

Faster and faster: Stirling engine optimisation

Pete has optimised the latest Stirling engine to run at an even higher rate. Later today I'll post some videos and photos of this and how he achieved it. Exciting stuff!
