As I woke up this morning I heard what sounded like a lot of wind and a small airplane landing out side my window…LOL
I put the wind turbine we’ve been working on in the air last night when the wind was low. This morning it is spinning so fast you can’t see the blades! I don’t know what the voltage is yet I haven’t gotten dressed and gone to the shop to put a meter on it. But when it was on the ground on my test pole, at that speed it was averaging about 175 volts… Scary especially that close – but with it in the air I feel better not being so close.
Second thought! I need to get the long ladder out and add some guide wires to the “free standing pole”… right free standing, Ha! I had better get this done or it might take flight to the next farm… hehehe
I took a couple more photos so you all can see it and I will get a picture of it in the air (it was dark when it went up last night, not good for photos ) and post it but for now I have got to go up in the air and add the wires.. This is a great day for me I actually have my first windmill generator up and running! I am going green and I won’t have the high electric bill either! My second one is already in the works I hope to have it up soon 🙂
Happy Tuesday

Congratulations on going green with that turbine! That’s really awesome. Keep us posted on how it works over time. That would be interesting to learn about.
Wow! I want one of those, do you think my neighbors would mind? That is really cool, I love it!
