Any advice from electrical guru greatly appreciated.
Looks like my Air 40 brake down. It does start and as soon as indicating green led blinks it goes to brake rotation .
I've done test as per trouble shutting ( spin by drill - braking works, volt goes to about 6.5 and brake kick in ).
Test 2 - connect wiring from battery and led should blink on connection - it didn't .
I suspect that circut board rectifier fail.
What if I wire up 25 amp volt rectifier from AC to DC 12 volt bypassing circut board and connect to my battery system ?
Would i cook something ?
I also have solar with controller and believe that it would prevent overcharge from solar .
The other possible problem is high wind and blades spin not possible to brake .
Any advice greatly appreciated .
Post the Instruction Manual and schematic if you have one. Its hard to make suggestions without. Good MPPT Solar regulators can handle a really wide voltage input range (0 - 40V maybe) and could possible be used for your wind generator.
Maybe like this. I changed my boats batteries to Lithium a while back, which made the motors 12V alternator obsolete - NOT. I had a spare MPPT Solar regulator designed for lithium. The 12V alternator now feeds that (instead of a solar panel) and the regulator charges the batteries no matter what voltage the alternator puts out which is roughly zero to 15V. Theres also a MPPT Solar Regulator on the boats solar panels. Both can't be connected to the same battery at the same time.
