Hey doug2877...is not more powerful with 3 blades?? Thanks

LOVE this 1 Doug! Wealth of information that you have provided us with!

Maybe it's already been suggested, but the easy way to get this type of turbine back under control is to lasso the tail fin and rotate the entire generator so the blades are 90 degrees to the direction of air flow. Also, don't forget the Loctite on the bolts :-)

Grande,ottimo voto.

2 rubber balls on the end's of 4' of rope works good to stop a turbine. Throw it into the turbine but with caution. May do some damage but could be worse. They are scary when stuff goes wrong. Good video west coast doug

Hey Doug, be happy this didn't happen. (place after U-Tube link) /watch?v=WaVyIYotTdI
I know you can't compare the sizes but none the less, a shattered blade in those winds could definitely do some serious damage no matter the size.

Yep it was pretty extreme, funny looking or not. Thanks for the comment field, LATER

LOL... your motorcycle helmet! My wife makes fun of me when I wear safety glasses. Sounds funny, but the helmet is a good idea!
OH NOES!!! The good news is that you had a great source of wind energy! Too bad that when you want to do some maintenance on the turbine,you need the wind to quit. How ironic.
I got a scare the other day when the wind picked up and the turbine started spinning like it was an aircraft about to take off the pole and fly right at me.... so I know that feeling you had. It's amazing how much power is in the wind.
Sorry you had to cut the cable. Hope you get your turbine back running soon.
