FYI, The skin effect only occurs with alternating current (AC). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_effect

Just make sure it's clamped while you're drilling pilot holes then after you add the glue the first screw should pull the boards back into alignment and the rest will have no problem. You'll get a feel for how much glue you need and eventually you'll have minimal excess. I prefer to use clamps...

I said "peal n seal" it's an actual product. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Peel-Seal-Instant-Waterproof-Repairs-6-in-x-25-ft-Aluminum-Roll-Flashing/1018733

Not to sound like an old fart but I remember newbies asking about peel n seal back in '06. A full 10 years later and this forum is still having the same discussions over and over again....some things never change

Home audio should be tuned much lower...

No, it's 2 channel. ~200w per channel @ 2ohm

Item(s) for Sale: Memphis 16-MC2.100 Item(s) Description/Condition: Brand new, only removed from box to power up and test after I received it, then promptly returned to original packaging. Bought from n8skow in March 2012 then decided to go with a 5 channel to save space. Been collecting...

Papermaker, you're wasting your time man. Most of the members of this forum derive their 'knowledge' from other what other members have said, meaning misconceptions are propagated indefinitely. It's like trying to swim upstream, you can fight all you want but eventually you'll just give in and...

Exactly now you're getting it. And both your motor and your alternator have less than 100% efficiency which means you'll get wayyy less than 100A output.

Think about it, if you could take an electric motor and use it to create more electricity than you put in, it would be free energy...for everyone. It just doesn't work like that.

Google the law of conservation of energy. Alternators attached to engines use gasoline as their power source, you're talking about using electricity to generate more electricity. I don't have time to give you a crash course in physics.

Alternators take power from the engine. The greater the current draw on the alternator, the greater the torque load on the engine. This is why vehicles running multiple alternators have decreased fuel efficiency. The bottom line is, you cannot CREATE power, it can only be converted from one...

Yeah, I'm not saying it wouldn't work. What I'm saying is you cannot generate more power than what you put in to the system. So if your electric motor draws 100A, your extra alternators might produce 80A. Your idea violates the law of conservation of energy.

It takes power to make power. You cannot create more power than you put in, so while using an electric motor to generate electricity is possible, you will get less power out than you put in. Home generators use gasoline engines to generate power.
