It will take a pretty darn long time to charge a dead battery enough to start a Car. Don’t let this Crap happen in the first place is the best way to go. Ask LeRoy what to do if you can’t figure it out yourself
I see it all makes sense,except for the alternator and knowing what direction it needs to go, if its completely dead, how would you know?? (his was pre marked)
A jump box don’t cost as much as a chainsaw. Just thinking
but the chainsaw could actually work tho.. maybe take the belt off and adapt a cordless highspeed drill to the alternator pulley.
This is a solution for out in the bush
Great suggestion – there’s always another way
I did that once, worked good until I went back to cutting wood -my trees kept moving around.
Got to turn the key on to energize the alternator or it won’t work
No you don’t we make windmill generators with alternators. As soon as the pulley spins it produces power.
Bet ur a*s i would.
So I am out in the bush and happen to have toted along a chainsaw because I think I might just need one out there in the bush!
May have downed tree blocking your trail…
Gregory Scott Belt Jr. Came across this after our talk this afternoon and thought of you, how ingenious eh?
Key needs to be on on a car unless it has a one wire alternator. most dont
Neat, great to know, I would like to experiment with that
All you need is one redneck in camp or wherever and your gonna be good a bit unconventional but no problem will go unresolved.
you still have to have power to the alt to make this work its not like the old generators from the 50s
you need to power the magnets with a battery or they don’t work
why would you

nope
Who’da thunk it?

Proofread for your You’re You .
will not work if battery is dead an alternator has to have 12 volts to start charging
God knows I carry a chainsaw in every bush! :/
easier to just put some aspirin in the cells ,wait a few minutes and start it up
Pretty Fancy…
wow who would think on this one?
To full field an alternator for charging it takes about 3000 rpm !
About the same rpm to shift a fully synchronized manual transmission without clutching !
no I can full field an alt at idle with the right tools and it will put out max volts about16 or17 until you cook or explode the batt
redneck remedies!
What if your alternator is shot ?
Always carry a chainsaw with you just for this.
It depends on if it’s self exciting or not Not all need a battery to energize
