Thinking in the early morning: try a sewing machine motor [Singer, external, bolt-on, pulley drive] driving an inertial engagement [Bendix] of a rubber wheel onto the rotor. use a tapered wheel with the shaft at an angle will make engagement better than parallel shafts. Far easier than limiting/interrupting the current to protect my low power inverter. I only need to deliver 80W or so for up to 20sec.
