Power generator

(e.g., FIGS. 5, 6, 11, 13, 15, 18B-18E, 20A-20D, 22A-22D, 24, 25B-25D) An article of manufacture comprising a power generator (e.g., 500, 600, 705, 1100, 1300, 1500, 1800B-1800E, 2000A-2000D, 2200A-2200D, 2400, FIGS. 25B-25D), the power generator comprising:

• a rotor comprising a rotor inductor (e.g., 710, L1104, L1304, L1504), the rotor inductor having a first and second side;
• a first stator (e.g., 510, 610, 1110, 1310, 1510), wherein:
• the rotor is configured to move relative to the first stator;
• and
• the first stator comprises one or more first-stator inductors (e.g., L501-L503, L601-L603, L1101-L1103, L1301-L1303, L1501-L1503, L1851-L1853, L2051-L2053, L2251-L2253, L2451-L2453, L2501-L2503) configured to induce first stator phase voltages, each first-stator inductor configured to generate phased AC power when the rotor moves relative to the first stator;
• a first bridge rectifier (e.g., 520, 620, D1101-D1106, D1301-D1306, D1501-D1506, D1851-D1856, D2051-D2056, D2251-D2256, D2451-D2456, D2501-D2506) connected between (i) the one or more first-stator inductors and (ii) two output terminals (e.g., BAT+, GND) of the power generator and configured to convert the phased AC power into a DC output power at the two output terminals;
• and
• at least one of (i) an internally connected spark-suppression circuit and (ii) a second bridge rectifier connected as a voltage-boosting circuit.
