DC wind energy....AM I CRAZEY???

I am looking at building a wind turbine generator using manufactured turbine and blades mounted on a belt driven system of automotive alternators.

The alternators would be used to charge a bank of deep cycle batteries.

the power would then be inverted to 120V AC.

AM I CRAZY??

One man's crazy is another man's genius, so the jury's out on that question!

If you're serious about wind turbine tinkering, you may want to learn from the master:

Hugh Piggott, I'm told, is The Man for custom wind turbines.
