:idea: One of my major reasons for joining this web site (although I have haunted this site for years) is to begin a discussion on wind power.
I have followed the introduction of the new, light weight, compact wind turbines. www.dearchimedes.com. Now they are available on the European market....I hope the USA will soon follow. I have contacted them about sales into the USA.
Given that these are not disturbed by wind turbulence (they do not need to be mounted high above the ground), right themselves into the wind, and weight a small enough amount...I want to look at putting a pole onto the back corner of a vehicle and figure out a removable mount to put one of these up. What I don't know is how to hook it up to batteries.
I wrote to the website ... But these folks are Dutch, and may not really be interested in answering my questions.
Anyone have a wind turbine up? I hope that they install to batteries pretty much the same regardless of the exact device??
Anyone want to share a " How to......"
