DATE: 28 October 1965
1. Project Description:
The HG-100 is a tactical handcranked generator to be used in the
operation of field portable electronic equipment and the charging of
batteries. The unit is to supply 75 watts of average and 150 watts of
peak power at 12 volts. The design goal is for a 10 lb., package of
230 cubic inches.

25X1A
Gear system tested to 610 hours
at constant 125 watt load. There
are no other life critical com-

Shock - Drop OK after 20 drops
Final acceptance will, of course, be based on the results of our
on tests but there is little doubt that the unit will perform adequately.
