I need to do a comparison. Also the mounting bracket is the opposite of what I had before - this is a horizontal mount. I might be able to figure something out though. I'm waiting for the weather to warm up a bit as I'm working in the garage.
OK so thank you very much to the young male who gave this treadmill to me - he had already broken it down into parts a bit. So I was able to fit it in the smaller vehicle I was using - and also this treadmill only weighed 125 pounds - instead of the last one I got weighing probably over 200 pounds!!
So I told him the story about the chipmunk that got fried (photos)and that's why the last treadmill had stopped working. He said, "that'll do it!" yep.

So that is last year - I had to buy a ton of tools to take that first treadmill apart. This one was easier - simply because I already had the tools.
OK now let's look up this motor model....

I think the motor is less than the shipping cost! Yes it is very heavy for its size.
Someone selling this as a Wind Mill motor - for $80 on ebay
So my last motor was also being used as a Wind Mill motor...
Wow - here is the motor on Amazon for $250 !!!!!
So the Treadmill costs new I think $350 - so basically it's mainly the motor that people are buying. Pretty amazing.

Someone else on Ebay asking $319 for a new one.
So I think this motor is definitely better than the last one. It seems to have a half horse power more than the last motor - even though it's the same size. Is that possible? yeah the last motor was 1.75 horse power continuous So this one is a quarter horse power better!! Will I notice? First I have to figure out how to attach the bracket... So a quarter horse power means 1.5 amps more power! Will I notice? I'm not sure how that will convert based on RPMs and Ohms, resistance, etc.
$306 US if you order the same motor from Taiwan - it's probably made there

I tried Silicone spray on the last motor - so hopefully I can fit this in the Hermit Hut - and there will be less condensation than in the tent. I'm thinking when it got cold in the fall then the condensation in the tent is what rusted out the bearing.

This is important on hollow-shaft motors because a nonperpendicular shaft can destroy the upper thrust bearing almost immediately.So based on the SAME MOUNT BRACKET - the motor is this:
Video of the exact same motor!!6700 RPM 18 AMP MAGNET
Assuming an adult in good athletic condition gets on the bike generator connected to a small 12V Lead Acid AGM battery which has about a 2 Ohm resistance, the current from the generator can reach up to 15 Amps.https://pedalpowergenerator.com/
That's a BIG assumption! How long they gonna be able to be in "good athletic condition"? haha. Sounds like a super hard work out!
He's selling a $40 V belt on Amazon?
OK I'm making a Bicycle Treadmill generator playlist
Only half of those vids use an AC motor I think. Oh well.
Maybe not half - what I mean is they're using a DC alternator that steps up to AC I think.
And there's two vids without a Pulley on the motor - so I think I'll skip the pulley again.
Pulleys are pricey and I would have to figure out how to get it on - and make sure it's the right measurement, etc.
But I did get an idea for a vertical bracket - someone just uses U bolts. Pretty cool!
So he claims it's 300 watts - and you look at his image - that means watts is volts x amps.
So a peak of 30 volts time 10 amps? Not quite sure how many RPMs that would be? He's assuming 2400 rpms? ....
Oh he says 15 amps at 15 volts? So what's the RPMs on that?
