first time posting here!
i am currently designed a wind turbine to power LED lights on a bicycle for my honours year project!
have not done any electronics since first year, i am not upto to scratch to say the least.
the light will only have one led with the following specs from the website:
Continuous Forward Current: 30
Peak Forward Current: 70mA
Forward Voltage 3.4V
Power Dissapation: 120mW
Total Power Consumption 0.102 Watts
From my power = 0.5 * ∏r^2 * P * V^3 for a 7.5cm diameter blade i got 1.358W.
Does anybody know if this is at all right?
thanks in advance, matt
