Here are 2 more companiea.. TLG in Wisconsin makes a 1200 dollar 500 watt,TLG 500
with a Chinese alternator but looks ok. But is unimpressive on watts at 20 and 28 mph.
Wind turbines should be rated at 20-25 mph.
And a Canadian CO. Clean Energy in Calgary is making interesting Axial flux
machines like Hugh Piggot style but professional quality... in 1-50 kw and bigger.
Dont know their prices but Canadian outfits are never cheap.
If competition gets prices to a buck a watt complete,minus tower, people will be buying
turbines everywhere.Down with SWW and Bergey. OVERPRICED.

A 500W 'mill that is un-impresive at 20 & 28MPH, is useless. Most residential areas seldom see >15mph wind, except in storms

That's 20A @ 14V charging 12V batteries at 28 MPH, so claiming 280 watts, not 20. I'm building one with the same generator but the 1500 watt instead of 500 and 9-10ft rotor. Should be interesting. The main advantage I see with this alternator as opposed to the Piggott that the windings are around the outside of the aluminum housing, so heat can dissipated easier.
are you referring to the Clean Energy alternator??? If so ,where did you buy it.??
do they have a USA dealer... and do you know anyone that has bought a full kit from
them and can comment on it??
It would be neat if you could stack 1KW modules next to each other to make a
2,3 KW without buying a whole new rig.
