  • WORLD RECORD: BIGGEST WIND TURBINE

    Visit: windturbinecarriedbywheels.wee­bly.com

    ZERO-NOISE from the gears and the generators because they are sealed underground (Only the outer parts of the turbines may be heard.).

    SAVES THE BIRDS AND BATS because the turbines are slow-moving since the speed is in the transmission gears and in the generators.

    DOES NOT NEED TO OCCUPY A WIDER LANDSCAPE because the turbine can be very tall.

    HELPS THE WIND ENERGY COMPANIES because it is FREE FOR ALL.

  • Too noisy!

  • "Buy our bullshit product for 500% of the retail cost or the warranty is void."

  • We can fix this turbine. Please contact Venger Wind dot com

  • Not exactly ispiring, but good job, and although requiring some improvements, I believe the idea is revolutionary ... ;-) Thanks, Runi

  • I'll bet we can wait...forever actually.

    We would never spend that kind of money for a

    turbine that falls down....hahahah

  • they have moved offshore to Thailand...cheap labor, no american jobs

    but if you want a free one, there is one at the bottom of dutch harbor alaska

    it blew to a million pieces into the bay...poor construction.

  • @goose2goose2 I know about your turbine, we have emailed each other in the past. Did they ever replace yours as they said or give you back your money? I hope they stay in Thailand, those SOB's. It is companys like this that are doing more to detract from renewables than help it along.

  • OMG!!! I just did a Google on this and the suggested retail is $17,000 US. For this price the unit should be perfect no defects at all! It should have at least a 10 year warranty short of that, you need a lawyer that has a REAL wessel or wolverine attitude when working for his clients.

  • @1foxtrot70 "wessel"? Is that Pavel Chekov speak for "vessel"? ROFL

  • @TheLawlbreaker - Ah, LOL that is funny, I misspelled the name of the animal. I was referring to the characteristics of the Weasel and the Wolverine.

  • @1foxtrot70 Glad you have a sense of humor :-D

  • noise pollution. sad. looks neat but no way i'd put this anywhere near human beings.

  • needs some wd 40

  • @dillj34555 do you think it would help???

  • @pappaw50 it might. lubrication of some kind is generally a good idea

  • @dillj34555 The unit is lubricated with Helix Wind special lubricant. It is the only lubricant allowed or the warrantee is void.

  • @dillj34555 , LOL .. 

  • freakin noisy!

  • how can you tell that this was installed wrong? We just had one put in and despite 20-25mph winds it barely spun.

  • @abartkow I was there during the installation. after the install it would not turn and the installer said he screwed up.

  • @pappaw50 YOUTUBE: helix wind self-destruct

  • It sounds like a train in your yard, but at least the noise stops when the wind stops blowing.

  • This can't be it? I mean...it shouldn't sound like that

  • @Nichen You are right, it shouldn't sound like that, but is does. I met another Helix Wind owner and she had the same problem. I think it is a bad design and they won't fix it. Just stall stall stall.

  • Ask to the company install bearings, as I can see, the shaft is directly mounted on the base, or install autolubricated bush bearings, in my opinion two conicals bearing mounted in oposition will be perfect

  • I'd be contacting a lawyer ASAP.

  • What's all the racket in the background? Is that the mill?

  • Yea isn't that just great. Helix Wind tried since last September to quite it down with no success. I have had it with them, I just want my investment back but they will not give it back.
