See the new WIND TAMER™ Turbine lighting an automotive headlight,

wired directly to the generator in 8-12 mph winds!

This product will be available soon, but seeing and hearing the WIND TAMER™ Turbine

in action is very exciting, since this revolutionary new wind generator makes virtually

no noise, and has such efficiency that the directly-wired load doesn’t even slow the

blades down! Learn more at www.windtamerturbines.com

Why Build a Wind Power Generator

Years ago small farmers all over the world used a simple system to generate their own electricity using a natural resource found everywhere – Wind. When power companies became commonplace and widespread people began to depend o them for their energy needs and left behind a reliable and self dependent method of generating power. Over the last twenty years or so, there has been a steady number of households turning back to wind as their power source, and why not.

Not only is it a cost effective way of providing power but also of doing your part for the environment. A person’s carbon footprint could be dramatically decreased by simply reverting to the wind as a source of power using one of the simpler methods of harnessing and generating electricity, namely, the windmill.

When one thinks of a windmill you probably have an image of Holland, where for years windmills have been commonplace and were used originally for turning mill stones to produce flour and crush grain. The windmill I recent times has been sprouting up not one at a time but by the dozen in the often seen “wind farms” across the globe.

Often standing 90 meters tall or more, these wind turbines are being installed by developers and even farmers as a business opportunity. The power generated from these turbines is fed into the national grid and the farmer gets paid for this service.

These wind turbines are on a large scale, but what can the householder do when on a limited budget. There are many who wish to do their part for the environment but simply don’t have sufficient funds to make the change over to renewable energy sources. Luckily enough to power the average size home using a windmill doesn’t require much equipment or money to set up. Comprehensive guides and manuals have been compiled with the energy conscious individual in mind.

Analysis by Paul Gelling of an inexpensive grid tie inverter.

This inverter will plug into a normal wall outlet and allow you to produce 110 V electricity from a wind turbine or solar panel and lower your electric bill.

We are going to use this inverter on a wind turbine but first wanted to give it a thorough testing out to make sure it wasn’t a lemon.
