Re: Power generator, using MG1 + MG2 Prius 1 or 2

"You can also buy two controllers and then use the MG1 inverter to generate single-phase output. Either directly from the power generated by MG2 or through the battery amplifier converter. Three-phase software may also be available, but is not yet supported. " Does your controller control ...

Re: Power generator, using MG1 + MG2 Prius 1 or 2

The system can operate in the following ways: 1..MG1, is driven by the gearbox sprockets, generates current to charge the HV battery and also produces current at the output of the single-phase or three-phase MG2 inverter at what power ..? 2..MG2, is driven by the gearbox gears, generates current, ch...

Re: Power generator, using MG1 + MG2 Prius 1 or 2

Do I understand that the hybrid system in this case "boost converter" produces 220/240 v at a current of max 300 A?

Re: Power generator, using MG1 + MG2 Prius 1 or 2

I was thinking that only MG2 reaches 50KW ... Does MG1 also generate 10kw?
My requirement would be max 10/12 KW

Re: Power generator, using MG1 + MG2 Prius 1 or 2

"So the MG1 makes direct current to the battery, and the MG2 part makes the single-phase AC output out of it. Then this fabric is twisted using a transformer in three fabrics moved at 120 degrees that could power your home. It probably wouldn't sync with the network because of the entire transf...

Re: Power generator, using MG1 + MG2 Prius 1 or 2

In your video, do you use the function of: buck converter to get 240 VAC? Is the battery voltage 12 x 7.5 v per element? What power or current does the Prius 2's Hv battery provide? 10kw..20kw or much less! "You need 2x Toyota Prius ™ Gen2 inverter controller because you want to use two cars. I...

Re: Power generator, using MG1 + MG2 Prius 1 or 2

Your assumptions about the inverter are correct. So you want to attach a gen2 gearbox to the inverter. The gearbox is basically always in regen mode and is turned by some power source like a wind turbine. That generates some voltage on the DC bus, say 300V, that you then want to feed into a battery...

Power generator, using MG1 + MG2 Prius 1 or 2

Hello, I propose to the attention of all those interested and approved, the production of electricity using MG1 + MG2 from Toyota Prius 1 or 2. The idea came to me trying to produce electricity using a PMG motor / generator driven by wind, water or ultimately a heat engine. I was wondering if I coul...
