new D I Y wind turbine

This is my new wind turbine 48 volt connected up to 4 car batteries ( as 48 volt ) , I am running a 550w jigsaw, would say wind was 12-14 mph , it seems to work pretty well, gonna get more stuff rigged up to it but at the moment tests would indicate over 550w in these winds which I am very happy with.

It has 6 metal blades, 3 are 35" long and 3 are 26" long, this is an unusal blade configuration because I didnt feel ready to carve 5 foot long wooden blades and this seems to work well hitting 75-85 volts unloaded.

Peace
