Hello friend! I love your attention to detail on your design. If I could make a suggestion, i have seen other designs work better by making a tube with holes all the way to the bottom to direct the air flow to be pushed back up through the ice, a man on youtube does this concept on a cooler and proves the efficiency of it and ryobi has a cooler for sale that uses this concept as well. Summer is upon us, stay cool!

Thanks for the reply! I feel the majority of my noise was coming from the motor. I took all the gears out, cleaned and greased them and spun them without the motor by hand and there wasn’t much noise but I would imagine at high rpm’s the noise would increase but I hope not much 🤞🏼. I have ordered an rpm reader and plan to check the speed in each of the three gear positions available on the drill I used by inserting a gear with shaft in place of the motor to take the reading at that point. Hypothetically, if the rpm’s increase; my RC motor choice would change from a 140kv, to whatever my rpm/12v would be. Say it’s 280kv or more; my assumption coming from my motor volt readings increasing by 1/3 from spinning motor without gears; outside of the drill and then using gears; motor inside …

Hello! Love your contribution to Instructibles with this write up! It made me dive in to try my own generator using an old “Yellow” drill. Success... kinda. I got 10 volts and 6.5 amps but it’s pretty loud and I have neighbors, an advantage of using a drill is that it has different gear ratios to make the motor spin faster but with more effort. But i like the trade off seeing as that’s one of the perks of using an actual bicycle with gears, which is to make the wheel spin faster at higher gears, using a drill gives that perk to the stationary bike method. Question 1: Is your motor loud? Question 2: Is a voltage regulator to something like 13.5 Volts to not have to worry about going over 15 Volts something you would consider?
