    Solving Generator Problems to Power 60 Watt Light Bulb

    actually I found out what my problem was ._. Its a bit of the moron moment syndrome... Looking at the package of wire I bought I noticed it was bare wire not enameled ... Sorry for the bother though I did look at the website and will save it for future use
