i now have approval and a copy of the regulations i need to follow to put up a tower for a wind generator on my property.......i am looking for a good quality 500w generator to start with and see what will actually be the production here. the solar has been poor the last 8 weeks so i am looking to wind now for more power in the short winter days. your videos are very helpful, thank you for sharing.
well, if I was starting now, I'd not go with less than 2.0 m in diameter (that's M5 chinese model). however, if to be fully honest - rather go with the FT-2000L2 (3.2 m dia) as the first one, that one is already a good one and will get you some production.
great project, what is the starting wind-speed of them to generate electricity? 3m/s with 800W-2KW? and have you made any experience with Printed-Circuit-Board-stators for wind generators instead of the big copper coil-stators?
turbines spinning start wind speed is from 1.5 to 2.5 m/s (depends on the turbine itself). production start is at about 2.2-2.8 m/s for all of them, but again depends a little bit on the wind turbine too. the smaller the wind the less the watts are of course. and no, I haven't tried anything aside of the copper-coils on the stators.
it depends on the location for sure. local regulations matter, and matter a lot. in my place I am allowed to put anything that is below 45 m height without any building approvals or requirements. however, still, I am using the common sense safety measures - if it falls - it should not touch any building nearby, and it should lend fully on my property. These are "just in case" precautions.
Please record the group of wind turbine power production of this winter so that you. Could compare it with summer production for a fair analysis same for solar power
yes, I am gathering some stats already. but please bear in mind - the stats will be only relevant for the continental climate, my nearest sea is 500 km away, and I live in a place where the annual average wind at 10m height is 3.6 m/s only. so for people living near the oceans, seas, big lakes - that will have no relevance. but you may check your exact situation at globalwindatlas.info, it represents the wind data quite nicely. at least the numbers I am getting correlate fully to my low annual average winds.

@@ModernUkrainianHomestead interesting details, seems like efficient generators are used here. thank you for your answer
Would take me years to get an approproval for such a tower
