Lynx Vawt Comparison

Side by side comparison of the first Lynx Vawt and the newer 4' x 3.5' Lynx Lenz2.
This turbine has a very unique alternator with its 32 magnets and two sets of coils for low wind and high wind.

NICE JOB CAN YOU SEND SOME PICTURES WHEN ITS STOP I AM CURIES HOW BIG ANGLE YOU USE FOR TURBINE Best Regards

@gloki20

The blades are angled 30 degrees off from the axis. But don't make this unit, it isn't worth the trouble. it was more a learnng step. There are simpler and cheaper ways to get power from wind. My more recent lift type VAWTs are much better.

It would be really nice to know how many watts are being produced because nobody has any clue how much power it really makes unless you say how many volts and amps. Volts x Amps = Watts

@cableairman

You are right. I have been working mainly on wing design and trying to get speed and torque. These drag types go around but don't produce much watts until 20 mph. These are both 20 - 40 watt designs and I have moved on to more fertile ground. These types have to be large to be effective.  There are ways to make them better, but I am working on lift types now.

@cableairman You got that right, and it would be nice to know which is the quietest as well as some of them are super noisy once they get cranking.

I am interested in the one at the left,how did you do it?would you have any shematic of how you assemble the blades? all the hardware.

thanks

[Mrinfoone]

what are the dimensions on both and angles on the blades?

[MasterFloTechnology]

The one on the left is probably more bird friendly at low wind speeds.

Yes 18 to 20 volt but 0 amps, what is inportant is the watts that it can produce...

please video of vawt construction man its look like it be the one for us home user
