I would like to try my hand a constructing a tiny 3-phase axial flux generator. Basically I'm just wanting to replicate some of those clever people on YouTube and see if I can generate power from wind to light a few LEDs in my garden, there's nothing more to it. However, I haven't been able to search my way around this question: how important is it - given the hobbyist scope of the project - to have the exact same number of turns for the generator wire coils? I'm wanting to dive in and start turning the coils by hand, but will I render the thing unbalanced and useless if some of the coils are 10-15 turns less than some of the others?
Many thanks in advance.
