ayano3 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 17 amp/h 12v battery for me. I was working on an overhead line at the back of a place that made and repaired those mobility scooter things. They gave me three that were only charging to 95%. These scooter things have these batteries fitted, so if you see one parked up :blush: :blush: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayano3 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) think we should mate, i made mine from 240v tumble dryier, i got 2 croc clips and just have to make shore i set up next to over head wires NOTE before sum hero starts telling me about health and saftey, I WAS JOKING It would turn pretty quick as most of the overhead lines over fields are 11,000V and above Edited January 6, 2012 by ayano3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
browning n spaniel Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 It would turn pretty quick as most of the overhead lines over fields are 11,000V and above now you can see why the birds fly of the magnet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
browning n spaniel Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Something doesn't sound right! I can understand the magnet falling over if the ground isn't firm enough. If that's the case try placing the magnet on a tractor track where the ground will be more compact. The pigeons should never fly off the magnet though no matter how fast it's spinning. The centre spike is pushed through the ****, through the body and spiked onto the head of the bird, the rotary pushes constantly into the bird from behind, the laws of physics says the bird cannot be pushed forward off the spike!!!!! i put my birds on spikes head first, so that when the mag is turning clock wise the birds are facing anti clock wise, thats right way ent it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davyo Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 spike up the **** and through the neck in to the head, it aint goin no where Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosd Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) i put my birds on spikes head first, so that when the mag is turning clock wise the birds are facing anti clock wise, thats right way ent it No mate, just sounds like you're putting the arms on the magnet upside down if that makes sense. The spikes should be facing in the direction the rotary is spinning. Mount the bird backwards onto the spike, starting from the birds bum, through the body and finally into the head. This way the magnet is pushing into the bird as it spins. If this doesn't make sense feel free to pm me your number and I'll give you a shout to explain if that's easier. Also, if you're magnet is spinning clockwise (backwards) then you may have got the battery connections on the wrong way round. Switch your connections on your battery and the magnet will spin in the correct direction. Cos Edited January 6, 2012 by Cosd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
