I am using the same grid tie inverter for my wind turbine. However, my wind turbine ( treadmill motor ) is only generating around 5-10 volts, very rarely it reaches 12 volts perhaps when there's gusty wind.. Is 5-8 volts can then make a difference to my electrical consumption or I've just wasted my money?

@teddydogification Treadmillb motors are virtually useless.

@jeffmolly1 Can he buy new hub and doulbe his turbine blades to increase voltage?

[jeffmolly1]

@jimmy6tall2  You could do that.

i think what everybody is trying to find out is if ac power is cut does the turbine just spin flat out or will it brake the pma

[jeffmolly1]

@caravanman08 it will brake the turbine

If the divert load is connected to a charge controller and then to a battery bank wouldnt that work for power outages and your not wasting energy to the resister dump, you could then connect your charge control dump to a resister for back up if batteries are charged to high?

thank you i have being trying to find that info out

Hey Jeff - I'm really interested in the 1000 watt "Plug and Play" system on your website that has the 2 500 watt inverters. What would the max AC Amp output be out of the inverters?

@BluThoth You can get them anywhere you find circuit breakers, fuse boxes. like at home depot, lowes etc. in the electrical dept. they come in all different lenghts.
