Ya that's been done and works, you can get about 500W out of one, but since you either have to drive the field coil (the magnet in an alternator) or make a new rotor with permanent magnets it’s a little more of a pain to do (Although I have been toying with making an alternator into a brushless motor). I want to keep this small since I have deed restrictions. I get enough crap about an oil spot on my driveway.
