It seems that all kinds of new stuff like this is popping up recently. Hey, maybe if things keep going the way they are, we might have ourselves a real off grid explosion to be proud of. :D

    Meh. Given enough wind any turbine will fold up all on its own. :D

    The Eolic is the size of a small fan. I would like to see a plot of its power output vs. wind speed, but naturally I can not find that information anywhere.
    The generator can also be used to replace the electric service in small housing.

    I wonder if it could keep an AA battery charged long enough to operate one tiny LED bulb for 4 hours / night.

    Interesting novelty item for under someone's Christmas Tree, but probably expensive. :D
