Anyone have any literature on Moon Mfg. Co. turbogenerators? Need the info for a Shay we're working on. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Chris - I have laid hands on one Moon dynamo in over 25 years of rusty iron. It put out 125 VDC - might want to double check the output on your model, and consider using a MO6 or K240 instead with a 32 VDC output. Accidentally becoming part of a ground circuit changing a bulb in the headlight on a wet night won't feel quite as bad.

Jason has a spare K2 available, I think. MO6 and K2 are also supported with consumables and replacement parts off the shelf, no idea about Moon products.

Good luck, and send us a brief on the project.
