Missouri Wind and Solar Turbine, anyone try them?

Missouri wind and solar has a bunch of happy customers including me. Yes I've seen the negative videos out there but they are all from the same couple people with diferent user names including some competitors. I had a Falcon mach3 mounted on my roof that I loved. They let me change out the pma to their new dual which still worked with the falcon blades and the output was doubling. Yeah I think 2800 watts was achieved in a little higher winds but it'll do it. I can't say enough how much I love their products and performance. They're well built too and made in the USA. I checked into their reviews on ebay before I purchased which was great. I really enjoy Jeff's how to videos and he was really the first one.
I have it connected in parallel but series connection allows you to double the voltage output when the winds are low or for stepping to higher voltages. The only thing I didn't like is they didn't label which output wire was for higher voltage but was able to figure that out by letting it spin and checking which one made more voltage.

With all due respect to this forum and the fine people that run it. Your first paragraph needs allot of straightening out. There are more videos than those brought to your attention. And for your information, the competitors have been silent. That's because they have legal actions they are doing against Missouri Wind owners. The people you have seen are the ones who had the seeds to stand up and say enough to Missouri Winds Owner. There is positive proof his wind turbines DO NOT produce as advertised. I personally couldn't get more than 4 amps out of 2 of his 1500's. But have seen 50 Amps @ 24VDC out of 4-500's in 22 MPH winds. For those who can't put the pieces together, that 3000 watts of MW vs. 2000 Watts of TDynes. Everybody knows the small alternator PMA's are not the worlds answer to the energy industry. But they are small and economical. But I would like to get what I paid for. I further, as everyone else who is sitting on MW's butt, have been threatened and abused by the owner.

Further, there is absolutely no reason to run the PMA's in Series. They are not as efficient running them that way. If you are satisfied with low output, that's your money. I have been trying to get mine back.

Oh yeah. The happy customers have to be more than 2 years old when MW was a TDyne distributor. Or they are happy looking at single digit numbers go up and down. ***Chest puffs out*** Ohhhh Look what I did! They don't knw the difference because they got sucked in on a bunch of blind propaganda. I have to tell you, his videos have NO FACTS. They are ignerant guesses. Wait until I finish my next string of videos.

You want to see how to do wind the right way? Keep an eye on me. And these guys are teaching me solar. Doing a good job too.

Re: Missouri Wind and Solar Turbine, anyone try them?

do not worry as i did forewarn people of the language and i was surprised to hear you were targeted. yes, as he said, the only way to get the good amps from their system is to feed it into dead batteries. allot of good they are if they are dead.:p

come to think of it, how the heck was that a gt system? i may need to view it again just to see that.

i just loved the intermix of batteries too. (sarcasm)

in retrospect i guess i should not be surprised as to them targeting you as i just glanced at the number of views on the thread at over 10,200. i can see there is some validity to your concerns with that company if that's their proof of operations. not very professional either as i wouldn't even want to insult mickey mouse in this case. yikes.

Thanks Niel

Yeah I am a target. That's because I am a threat to them. I know too much about wind power. I think I told you the Christmas Story. The professionalizm is staggering isn't it? Because there are so many people who have been burned, we're starting a class action against this bird. That's why I am the target. They're trying to discredit me. I don't know anything about solar at the panel level, but I do know wiring. This site has been invaluable at teaching me the mechanics. But wind, I am much better at.

Missouri wind is actually paying people to do this. Real smart people. That's why I am sueing the slug

Re: Missouri Wind and Solar Turbine, anyone try them?

One big problem I see in that video is the way he is measuring turbine output voltage vs battery voltage. He is just going through a diode, so the wind turbine voltage will probably never get above .7 or so volts higher than the battery voltage - basic diode drop, since it is apparently not a Schottky diode, but just a rectifier diode. The statement he makes about how he routinely lets his batteries get down to 18 volts is a bit scary also.
