Internal generator for 49cc

Your kidding right ? Isnt this the same thing that comes standard in most 2 stroke engines ? Or am I missing something ?

the black tape wraped one accross the end of the mag is an add-on,,,type in the search bar at the top of the page ,there ane threads on these add-ons,,,

Sorry Free, i think i spoke too fast on the subject.

the battery may act as a buffer at high speed/volt out-put as well as continued head/tail/brake lite when stopped

Well, every Grubee motor I have installed including the new 2010's have a White wire coming out for raw ~7VAC you can draw 3 or 4 watts off of.

You can buy them for $8 Bicyle Motor Sparker Wire Loop Set Magneto Parts - Motorized Bicyle Sparker Wire Loop Set Magneto Parts - Bicycle Engine Sparker Wire Loop Set Magneto Parts - Motorized Bike Parts
I mean come on, it's just a copper wire coil ;-}

(per you PM) you can step-up the transformer AC up to 12VAC but you would need a battery and DC to store it, and you'd get a trickle charge at best converting it to DC to store it.

I have no first hand knowledge of a self sustaining electrical system for an MB yet, but like you FreeAtLast, an electronics degree and a couple of decades of experience and know how I am going to start.

I am going to start with one or two of these 12V 6W 'tire rub' generators for $17 Lights - Generator 12V | BikeWorldUSA | Bicycle Parts and Bike Accessories

Then mount a 12V battery like this for $16 and full wave rectify the gens in parallel.
Sealed Lead Acid Battery 12V 4.5AH (Upgrade to 5AH) for UPS & Emergency Lights (S)

That will give you some serious Watts.

If you spend more time riding during the day with no power draw it should be able to power some serious lighting you can actually use for an hour or two at a time.

Again, I haven't tried this yet and there are drawbacks to tire-rub generators like sidewall wear, but it sure beats messing with the inside of the motor, your CDI pulse comes from there, mess that up and just like screwing up your cars timing, it won't run.

Just my 2¢ worth.

Hehehe. MB speeds might be a bit excessive for that generator so a different way to spin it may be needed. Maybe put a little sprocket on the Gen and spin it with the chain.

SYSOP NOTE!

I will post a complete guild on this sites Tips section when I am done with this new related lighting project, and no, I have nothing for sale in the link, it is research, testing, and specific open idea sharing I just can't try to reproduce here when I have my own server and could use some help there in the same thread about the same specific issue, how to get great lighting on an MB development.

In short I need 12V for this design so I using a little 12V sealed lead acid battery, but it can be adapted to the motors 7.5AC output and a little 6V sealed lead acid battery for 6V lights.
There may even be a way to tap the motors generator in conjugation with a 'tire rub' generator to handle 12V which is what I am doing.

Again, I just can't do it in two place at once but I could really use some input from the smart guys here.

If all goes well maybe we can come up with the 'perfect system' to REALLY light your way on an MB at high speed in the dark all the time time without ever having to manually replace/charge any batteries ;-}

Thanks in advance for any help on this one.
