my first attempt at my home wind turbine
April 11th, 2009
how cheap can you build a home wind turbine from ebay.co.uk dont put them near trees as this creates turbulence and get it as high as you can for extra power

show us how to make it!
that’s very awesome. I wish I had to brains to do one of these. You could probably make some money writing a book on ‘how to’ for this.
Thanks for the comment
My turbine is not in the sky at the present but will be back up real soon once a few mods are finished and there should be a vid showing the erecting of the tower and turbine with the help of many friends.
Keep an eye on my site for new vids.
Nice job mate better than paying £850 for similar, on f/energy pmg watch out for moisture& rust getting behind black prop boss,bearing starts squeeking then goes lazy =no power (id on mine), not sealed properly either end unfortunately
Great work!
very nice … GOOD JOB
very nice … GOOD JOB
we need this powers
Nice work.
First congrats on makeing the world a little greener,your windturbine works well,it looks as tho you have alot of wind there,im in canada and not alot of wind id say average 5m/s altho we get some nice gusts,im doing my home work first before i install a few windturbines i find them very interesting,i been checking out sites,videos,makeing notes,i think 3 turbines and 2 solar panels and id be off grid.I think 2 would heat my home[in floor electic],another and 2solar/wood stove would do it,ideas?
the future’S energy if all of us ask for a change, greener, cheaper, and save
CONGRATS!!!!!
YOU SHOULD MOVE TO TEXAS ,THE WIND ALWAYS BLOWS THERE…
It will drive you crazy….
hi can i ask where you got this kit from?
im also looking to invest in wind energy
if you could give me a site that would be great.
cheers
Is it possible to mount several wind turbine a a roof? and how far apart do they have to be?
Does anybody know?
as long as the blades don’t touch the number is limited to the cost involved in getting the turbines
One is a good starting place but measure the average wind speed first over a long time to see if its viable.
Is it possible to have a double helix? I’ve never seen that it would be fun to try..
thanx.
Very nice windysolar do you power youre house with solar and wind thanks for the info(;
Nice! Suggestion… Snatch a heater element out of an old dishwasher or stove and make a DC oven… ? Maybe I will… maybe I will ;o)
Man, I love shit like this…
the distance rule is if one tower were to fail and fall it nor its mill blades should be able to hit any part of the nearest tower, guy wires or turbine and cause it to fail also, but as you can see from my vids we dont always stick to the rules
That’s because Oklahoma sucks.
It will not be cheaper…………………I
Their going to try to raise taxes on gasoline and coal fired power plants…..
And then we will kick them out in 4 years !!!!!!
also you need to experiment with vertical axis wind turbine designs as they are less affected by turbulence
That might be able to recharge my AA batteries… I prefer nuclear power, huge energy, low costs, and renewable
