Hello I would like to calculate the RPM's of my old vespino.
Since it is difficult to screw an encoder in the stator, I thought of
measuring the ac voltage (of generator) through a 10k voltage divider and measuring the peak voltage phase time , or using the pulseIn command with arduino.
Or using interrupt Rising or Falling.
Is that a good approach ? Should I use another approach, ie measuring the phase time from an optoisolator ?
Thank you
