That’s truly amazing! I slashed my electric bill in half! look here: solar.xfollow.me (Copy to your browser’s address bar)

raise ur voice, dammit!
what’s wrong with u?
frapuccinos eh? funny i us to be called that. do i know u man?
2 and a half frapuccinos
it makes no sense…I mean the private sector can either turn the page or let India and China turn the page for us…All they have to do is turn electric companies into the “oil”. Demand will always be there and you go green. Make the people happy and get paid. It’s that simple growth increases at 7% a year… and doubles every 10. SO Wake Up private sector nothing’s free you know shit just copy Warren Buffet and you get paid. haha
that is a very efficent wind turbine that small thing with 2 horse power! well done clap clap clap x30(:
Buy the blades? Why not just carve them yourself its cheap, you could do it for less than 20$ U.S. if you have a saw, a chisel and a hammer. As for why I didn’t use the alternator. . . There are approx. 20 important variables that go into choosing a generator for a wind turbine. I simply don’t understand how to optimize my design to accommodate an alternator. Your question is not simple. But perhaps you could do some experimentation and share with me the benefits of an alternator. Thanks
Why you are not using automobile alternator. has own ac/dc converter build in. I think will be more cheaper and effective.Can You give me advise from were we can by the blades. Thank you for your video.

how many watts is that 1.6ghz or whatever was said? nice man.
Burn garbage for electricity
I was wondering what prevents the battier’s from over charging? wouldn’t you want to run a 12-14vdc regulator with some filter caps to charge the battier’s? also did you run a iron core in your coils?
What is the capacity factor of your turbine?
Sorry, replies seem to be posted on top.
Anyway, KUDOZ for this turbine. 1Kw? That’s…. impressive.
Just one quick question: Is it safe to have your batteries in your living space (your bedroom)? I thought fumes can release when charging/discharging from batteries and you shouldn’t be around them all the time. Urban myth? Really interested in an answer
Respect!!
1) Is it not productive to use an off-the-shelf electrical motor (ie R/C car motor)?
2) I was thinking about using pressure differences + venturi tubes(when you open two windows on the opposite sides of the house => wind current) for an in-house wind generator. Any advice?
Keep up the good work!!
Brilliant!! Im gonna build one this thanksgiving!
Not at all, you will ruin your batteries if you just use a rectifier as I did, lesson learned for me
is the rectifier the same as a charge contoller?
hey bud thanks your vidio helped me understand a lot more. Thanks again.
