That's why I like used oilfield pipe...$30 for a 32ft stick! I really wish I'd put my Heli up on a tower like my i1500 so I could bring it down easy. Glad to see yours going up! Looking forward to seeing your numbers!

Dude oil field pipe is the bomb! I brain farted that one, we have a couple guys up here that sell it. Had it up last night...so far so good, saw 20 amps (24 volts) in bursts in medium gusty blustery winds.

if im using a 48v wind turbine , can i use a dc to dc converter to use it on a 24v battery system. 19 to 72v input puts out a steady 23 to 28v (user selectable) rated at 1000w 40amps.. and have a voltage set relay to come on when the batterys are fully charged as a dump to a water heater, or does morningstar ts45 work with lithium lifepo4 batteries , and not just lead acid
@Teknopottu Жыл бұрын
You could use a converter if it supports the 48-100V your turbine is propably going to input. Better to use controllers with braking capability if you don't want your turbine to break after the first storm.

Hello The reason was the controller, I've changed it and now works Now I have another issue, Do you know why my microwave and washing machine are making a high pitch sound when running? I have a wind turbine and 4 batteries, I don't have the ground installed yet. Thank you

I live in France..sorry for my english.Thank you for your video! I just bought an I2000w. How high is your mast? How many Kw per year do you produce with your wind turbine
@veggitarianredneck3 жыл бұрын
I'm not really sure, and my wind here is not really consistent but I would guess in the neighborhood of around 100 kw hours per year. My mast is 30 ft
