Does anyone know of a small, belt driven alternator available, probably from a small car? Don't need much current, but would like it as small as possible.
Farm alternators aren't small. One of the smallest I've seen isn't cheap. Go to Jegs online and look for a Shogun alternator. Weighs 6 pounds and is brushless. I think it's only something like 20 amps though. IIRC, costs about $350.

The shogun is virtually identical to the afore-mentioned lawn tractor alternator.

The smallest alternator I've seen is on a John Deere deisel Gator.It's about 3" in diameter and 2 1/2" deep. I don't know what it weights but it can't be much. Seems to put out lots of power though we use then for transport in an underground mine with lights on always plus a strobe and a radio. Drew Dalgleish centralia ont.
I own a John Deere Dealership and the alternator used on the Diesel Gator or the 322 are small, light, and if I remember correctly put out 15 amps. If you will email me at sfg...@teleport.com, I'll send you the part number, price and shipping weight.

It's a disappointment that you couldn't post that information to the group. This forum is IDEALLY suited for such an exchange, especially for a 'birds of a feather' price break ??????
Otherwise, most of us have John Deere dealers in the neighborhood and can cut out the middleman... the US Post Office. <g>
I have two options for those interested in a small alternator 1: The alternator from a John Deere Diesel Gator Part Number: AM877740 Output: 40 amps Weight: 2.96 lbs. Price for group: $ 291.67
2: The alternator from a John Deere 322 Part Number: AM877557 Output: 20 amps Weight: 1.81 lbs. Price for group: $ 145.49 Note: This alternator requires an external voltage regulator part number AM101406 price $60.51 weight .2 lbs. I can ship these anywhere in the US for a $5.00 John Deere UPS and handling fee. When I order these, I can have my John Deere warehouse ship them directly to you and they should arrive in a day or two. If you are interested, email me at sfg...@teleport.com

Both of these alternators are belt drive. I emailed DTAC, John Deere's technical service division on Saturday to get a max rpm spec. With any luck, I'll hear from them on Monday.

I just heard back from John Deere on the speed rating for these alternators. From: Tew Ronald <TewRonald@JDCorp> To: OR Salem SALEM FARM AND GARDEN SUPPLY <sfg...@teleport.com> Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2000 07:56:16 -0500 Subject: DTAC Case # 538049 - Alternator AM877740
I received your DTAC case concerning the possibility of selling alternators if they could sustain 5000 rpms. I pulled the print on AM877740 and examined the specs. This alternator should perform fine at sustained 5000rpms. Regulated output should be approximately 40Amps. Also pulled print of AM877557 but it was in Chinese. I can't read Chinese but appears specs are slightly lower on this alt. Hope this helps.

There was a poster in one of the aviation newsgroups within the past few weeks who worked or owned a John Deere dealership. He mentioned a couple of models of alternators they carried that were small.
Perhaps one of the regulars ( or that poster ) could post the details..... sorry but I didn't pay too much attention to it at the time.
