Lets say a fellow winds a coil and puts it under the flywheel of a magneto ignition motor. How does one determine the number of windings to get a desired voltage? Also, if no load is put across the windings, how much drag will it produce? Just looking for a way to power lighting on a small boat that doesn't require lugging a big battery around. I saw at the auto parts store that you can now buy LED lights for your trailer.Probably can get boat ones too. I don't know, but I think they are supposed to use less current. Thanks, Eric
