<p>The invention relates to a low current, low voltage generator for use in an underwater lighting system. The generator is driven by a commercially available source of power, for example, house current. The generator consists of an AC motor having an output shaft and a magnet mounted on the shaft for rotation therewith. A coil arrangement is disposed in a plane parallel with but spaced from the plane of the magnet. The magnet is cylindrical in shape and includes a slot in the front face thereof which faces the coil arrangement. Thus, when the magnet is rotated, it produces an EMF in the coil arrangement to provide a low current, low voltage AC output at the output of the coil arrangement, which can be rectified to provide a DC output if required.</p> |
