It's a wind turbine, not a windmill. Mills grind grains

How did you program the charge controller? I’m just not understanding the instructions; my fan icon doesn’t spin on the LCD

Do you have a follow up to this video? It's been almost a year and I am wondering how your turbine has performed.

No, there is no residual electricity in wires when you turn the power off

How is it working after 10 months of used?

What about the fuse and blocking diode 😂😂😂😂 thanks much

Good stuff! I wonder how is pole in wind? Is it solid or shaky? I am trying to construct pole as yours.

*Who need small wind turbines?!? With solar panels you produce at least 10x more electricity with same investment!* All real life tests show that small wind turbines produce hardly any electricity and don´t last long. Solar panels, on the other hand, supply electricity reliably and almost maintenance-free for 25 to 30 years. Even in winter with same investment you produce more electricity with bifacial solar panels vs a wind turbine.

Hi. I would like to know what type of wire dod you get? Also, what size pipe did you use? I know it is 10 feet, but how wide is it?

It’s soo great to have wind power that will go with the solar production . May the solar be with you .🤗🤙

nice to see people TRYING to address the big secret behind solar. they only produced about 5 hours of full output a day, and this tiny system. increased that by about 30%, shame its so dangerous to have one, just saying i like kites too.

I cannot wait to take a dip!!!

fun project!

Nice to see a demo using a table for the equipment unboxing/assembly rather than putting them on the ground.

At some you will learn that you should have gone to 48V system. Also you might think about not using propane as much and upgrading your solar to handle everything

You should move the dump resister away from electronics. It is a heater. I'd get a 2nd one installed outside when it's hot. The original I'd mount below the window. Then a switch to manually control which dump resister is used.

your charge controlled are not configured correctly from what i've seen . There is no way one charge controller is in absorption while the other is doing nothing. they need to have the same numbers in each one to maximize the sun. Next, at around 13:30 Kaitlyn said that 24 volts is need for 240v system and the 12 for 120v. This is absolutely not true. those two number have nothing to do with anything. the 120 / 240 output is a function of the inverter, not the batteries. Next is the operational understanding of your battery monitor. It only shows current in and out. it doesn't show anything to do with solar power at all. if you are making 1000 watts and using a 1000 watts it will so 0 watts. if you're using 1200 watts then it will show -200 watts. Hope this makes sense. Anyways, if you want a hand setting up your controllers, I am happy to reach out and walk you through it just as a favour. Cheers guys.

Love it all. I hope your pup is doing better. 🙂

Do you guys have trouble with ticks? I bought 30 acres in East Kentucky and the ticks are bad.

Wind turbines should not be attached to structures due to vibration. Horizontal axis wind turbines should be installed at least 20' above the nearest object within about a 200' radius. Where I live in unincorporated California, the county allows turbines to be installed without permitting if below 35'. You should check with your county. I saw another comment indicating to expect less than the manufacturer's rated output. From other reports I've read, you can expect it to be about half of their ratings if installed within the parameters I've listed above. Given the height of the trees I noticed in your video, you would need a much taller tower that would probably be needed to be guyed and permitted which would likely be cost prohibitive. Good luck!

I love these videos because I am still able to watch all of your progress even from far away! So proud of you both!

one controller in absorption and one in float... you aren't properly configured. You need to form a Bluetooth network between them in the app so they coordinate their charging. Also your claim that oversize wire is bad... is false.

Water heating rod in the collection system to keep it above freezing. Might help with keeping other things flowing

Hi you guys, what's the noise production/levels from it?

I am so excited to see everything that grows! Also, I love the beginning blooper! The garden truly looks amazing.

Great job you guys!

That mini split is way big for that size but should work excellent. Plenty busy u2 and good job 👍🏻

Hi I also have solar panels installed installed to mppt then to the lynx distributor, concerning the wind turbine does it work when you connect the load of the wind controller to the lynx distributor? does it charge the batteries i mean? thanks would it be possible to have a simple drawing of your whole system thanks

Clear the land well away from your house - bush fires are REAL!

Hello from Maryville Tennessee!! I see and hear the Blackhawks too. They train here outta the airbase behind the Knoxville Tyson airport.

1st to comment. I'm in Western North Carolina.

It looks really good! Well done 👍

I noticed in your other video the four solar panels were being shaded by your antenna booster and now I see the wind turbine also in front of the panels. Are you still getting good output out of them with all the shading?

Hi again got my solar and wind turbine from ecoworthy have another question did the wire and the wing nuts come with the green dumploader or did you have to buy your own nothing came in my box to hook it up to hybrid controller if you got what size wire did you use everything is going well in putting together made a cart on rollers for Solar putting controls in box on cart so I can move use for 2 sheds and garage backup for house Thanks Again

Awesome how you thought about climbing the ladder after trying to stand it up from the pole. I thought to myself, Way to re-think. I congratulate you on your self sufficient way ! God is with you !

I know it has been days since you put up the wind mill but I did not see you put in a pin for the flange to pole, that flange can and probably will unscrew from the pole, drill it and pin it, I am taking this idea for my place, Thanks!

And I would like to recommend a PVC pipe sleeve from top to bottom because what you are using my dear is at least what it looks like since it’s made out of steel and it rust that is gas pipe cast steel gas pipe so besides grounding it I would recommend putting a sleeve on it because yeah, you may ground it and once it gets struck by lightning, you gotta replace that windmill Putting a sleeve on that rod will make it so you have a less of a chance of it getting struck by lightning

I am glad to see. I am not the only one that used automotive grade 8 bolts because mine was only rated to be able to be in 90 mile an hour winds for short period of time when I only had it up in 50 mile an hour wins the bolts that came with mine snapped so I put grade 8 bolts and now I don’t even have to take it down at alland I get wins up to 150 miles an hour

I installed 17000 watts solar, 4 forklift batteries, a hurricane windpower 1500 watt turbine, 4 inverters, 4 charge controllers, a dc generator, and all the parts to bring everything together, we have been offgrid and powering everything for 7 years now, and advice i can give is, install a couple of car stereo capacitors, because they help with fridges, and motors turning on, they help keep your loads from dropping voltage when they start up, and helps your inverters from being starved of power. Early on i had an inverter burn mosfets because i had two fridges on it, and the inverter was sized right and could handle it, but at one point the two fridges kicked on at exactly same time and drawed power down and the inverter didnt like it, and burnt 3 mosfets on the board, after some research and time, i took apart the inverter and installed new mosfet board, and installed two capacitors, since then i havent had an issue. I learned from a old technician, said helps keep system stabilized.

Great video have the same problem you do don't weld so does the flange twist on, and what length pipe did you use to put the T in between? My wind and solar is on the way from ecoworthy.

Nice set up. Congrats. Thanks for walking thru your experiences

I am going to hire Kaitlyn for all of my excavating needs ;)

I learned a lot! Another great video from Kaitlyn and Patrick :) :) :)

A socket wrench or an impact driver with a socket attachment will make short work of that assembly process. 9:25

OLÁ KAITLYN E PATRICK!! TUDO BEM POR AÍ..?!..TODOS BEM?!...faz tempo que vocês não postaram mais vídeos..aconteceu algo?!

18:39 Capacitors keep their charge especially Electrolytic Capacitors but if well designed they have bleed resistor across the high value Electrolytic Capacitors to drain that charge, some people have changed the generator side of that wind turbine for a deeper generator producing more power, other people have put longer blade's on that unit, for the price its quite good, I would have a dump load heating water, like an emersion heater in a hot water cylinder,

Awesome video! My wife and me are looking at going off grid as well. I’ve got a pretty similar machine but I put a tmk150 tree sheer on it! Just posted a video of it on my page

I have been looking at buying one of these. A few things to mention. They come with a vegetable based 'break in' engine oil that needs changing in 5 hours or you can have the engine seize. One guy had one where the track motors would 'free wheel' on hills and he found out the hard way. Also many say to run the engine at half to three quarters power to ease the jerky motions. Pushing out the cheap Chinese grease with quality grease is recommended. And finally check every bolt for tightness, especially the turning motor as many are loose from the factory. Lots of people on YT and tractorbynet discussion groups to help.

Cool digger. We just got one too and heading to east Tn with ours this month.
