    Thanks for telling me about that high voltage myth… I’ve never heard that before!

    Wind power, if one is able to harness on a large scale, is the new wave. Your conversion from wind power to useable energy, could very well be your meal ticket for life.

  • MetalTala says:

    do all wind turbines not have a limiter so they dont explode

  • GreenEngineer07 says:

    That is hard to say, but if they don’t they should!

  • jonathanelectronica says:

    You don’t need a charge controller for the wind turbine?

  • TravvyG says:

    I have a vast amount of interest but I’m unshore if I would be able to do some of them cause of my Aspergers Syndrome effects my learning abilty and understanding. I’m interest in Everything science and I also luv to drive trains oneday to haha. Is their a way I can leanr what you have learnt with out going to Uni? I just want the knowledge and understaning of this stuff but only for back yard projects not careers

    Wind power has great potential in the United States and places like Massachusetts are on the way to lead the nation in terms of producing and consuming renewable energy. Pacific Crest Transformers manufactures transformers specially designed for the wind energy market…They are Grounding transformers with harsh duty requirements, Wind Turbine Step-Up Transformers, Collector Step-Up Transformers, and Dynamic VAR Compensation Systems Transformers.

    Poor Batterys … You should really use a charging controller . Lead Acid Batteries really dont like too high charging voltages (and to high charging current) .. this will kill the battery very fast. and since good controllers are switch mode devices they can also use very low voltages coming from the generator to create a usable charging voltage for the batterys, even if the output of the generator is lower then the needed voltage. you pollute too if you have to buy a new battery every 2 month.

    you fucking voice. my head explodes when i hear your fuckin voice…..bäääääää fuckin voice

  • turkmillet says:

    and now i will vote bad for this fuckin video

  • GreenEngineer07 says:

    I 100% agree I think I sound like a loose douche nozzle when I use my head sphincter to modulate the back-pressue on my lungs. I must say that you type well, considering your head has exploded. Sorry about that are you interested in narrating any of my future videos? I am serious about that.

  • WaYneD91 says:

    Hey mate. Do you know how to be able to tell the difference between warm wind & moist wind?

  • kuloodporna says:

    you fuckin cock shuta fuck up, your dont know about this video nothing
    so fuck you and goodnight

  • turkmillet says:

    On every user: Please vote BAD for this fuckin Video. This fuckin Wind Turbine doesn’t work!!!

  • rjzeran says:

    Nice extention cord, POS. That is what you have here. POS

  • heavyweather says:

    Nice use of Rhino ;)
    Is there any more information or built tutorial of that turbine somewhere?
    I would like to built a vertical turbine…would the same generator work?

  • bappaditya3 says:

    sir, I would be grateful if you could tell me the type of generator used- I mean whether its a synchronous m/c or an induction m/c and why? thanks in advance.

  • GreenEngineer07 says:

    Hugh Piggot has a set of build instructions for a turbine much like mine. He charges a fair price I would highly recommend looking into it.

  • GreenEngineer07 says:

    This is a surface Permanent magnet machine of the axial flux variety. They are affectionately referred to as “pancake” machines in some circles. Let me know if that is what you were looking for. Or check out my wind turbine destroyed video for a closer look. I would also like to refer you to Hugh Piggots work he is the best in the business. Thank you for the polite inquiry.

    If you want to chat with an energy expert, join us for EcoChat tonight at 8pm CST from the web.

    Hear from the former President and CEO of a wind turbine company.

    Ask about Bloom Box technology and Obama’s commitment to a nuclear power plant.

    Go to my youtube page and visit my blog to chat it up!

    go buy a better voice fag.

  • amuck6786 says:

    sir, could you please tell me the name of the software in yur video, you used to design yur wind turbine.

    thanks!

  • fingerspies says:

    I have built a non wind turbine belt conveyor turbine cog driver it may sound a bit complicated but it’s very similar to having a dog and still barking yourself abit pointless but don’t be deterred alot of people spend hours and hours a day building absolute worthless rubbish and you never know by some miracle something might look good or even work, but please don’t get too optimistic it might lead to much dissapointment :)

  • walter0bz says:

    i heard small scale turbines are no where near as efficient as the huge ones, is that true?
    still every little helps.
