This video shows the DIY installation of a Skystream 3.7 wind turbine in Oak Harbor, OH. It took less than 45 minutes to lift the turbine and attach it to the pad, remove the straps, add the collar and wire the turbine into the breaker box. We tested it out and it ran fine and shut down immediately when the power was disconnected. To find out more visit my site at http://www.joshuajanes.com

  • I have a old farm windmill and want to restore it so it will provide power.  Any help? I have the tower, the blades and the space for it. Just need to know where to go or who to talk to about the parts to generate power for it.

  • not to sure where you'd go to refit. I'd start by checking the manufactures sites.

see all

  • Great job> go wind power

  • very nice

  • How many yards of concrete is that foundation? Nice tower, that's about a $5000 tower alone isn't it?

  • thers a man down the st from me with a wind turbine on his roof, hes not on the grid, he's poor, cant this be done cheap

    Also that sucks about the train all across the us, that doesnt save lives it infringes on all of our serenity. Its fukd up

  • mytube8488 you are almost right. dont forget about taxes, fees transmission cost to use the electrical wires, and this is a fixed cost of electricity. Now i do not aggree with the way they installed this machine , you will need a crane every time you do repairs, an i dont agree witht he price of one of these, they are so expensive only because the government is giving back 30% right now

  • put your drawings on here!!

  • Mytube8488, you are 100% correct. Also, anyone considering Skystream should know they would be supporting a company that laid off 14 employees, then got a $10 million dollar investment package, and refuses to hire back those 14 people. They are taking that money to China and admit it in news articles.

  • 300KWh's x .08cents per KWh is about $24 of electricity per month.The cost of the system @ $15,000 divided by $24 is 625 months. 625 months divided by 12 is 52 years.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong,but it looks like the payback will take 52 years at your average of 300KWh per month.
