1 How To Build Wind Turbines Building A Wind Turbine At Home

[IdahoViewing]

To be sure, volts are important, but 30 volts is NOT a lot of power. Volts times amps is what you are shooting for. Current for a given RPM is what is important.

good luck with everything, you dont sound like a crazy fish farmer, more the kind of smart person the world needs more of  ooorahh

Do you have any ideas for the fan portion of the windmill? The best ones I've seen are vertical axis mills using squerel cage fans from air conditioners and such. I like this design because it simplifies the hole contraption. There is only one moving part and it works for any wind direction.

Yes......vertical axis style is what i will probably build first.... The more i learn the more ideas i keep coming up with... Don't want to reinvent the mills... Just make them better... lol...

[emagnets]

great idea dude.. i think my styles will d the job..

[buildingwindmills]

Yes... I am trying to look at all the different designs out there... I like your design... I am looking at different ways air and water are pushed right now... I will be starting soon... But it all has to built with recycled stuff... or all my junk... lol...

[emagnets]

dont rush, there is alot of info on the web,

VAWT vs HAWT.

vawts are based on low rpm

hawts can go on high rpm.

Run a add in your local news paper or craigslist. Just ask for any broken treadmills for a experiment / project. I did and got 8 or 9 treadmills.
