Your Questions About Wind Generators Ebay

David asks…

what happen if the generator continue rotating and there is no one using its generated power?

I just want to make a home made wind mill and I’m afraid it will explode if I’m not home and it continue generating and no one is consuming the generated power.

thanks.

Some seem to heat the house hot water if the power is not needed.See ebay listings

Betty asks…

What is your current plan to get off of the power grid?

Where I live we have plenty of wind and sunlight. I am going to build a combination of those 2 types. It will cost a bit to get into but once its done I will be independent and can reasonably say I am doing everything I can to get off of polluting energy.

Beat you to it I’m OFF THE MONEY HUNGRY GRID. Ive been building solar panels from old broken cells i get off eBay allot cheaper then buying them and they are working really well . Takes a Little time imagination and work but well worth it. I have a few pics in my blog showing how i do it

I have a flat roof on my house and im building a low level wind mill my own design with the power shaft going through the roof going into the second story room that i use for my power room and that i use for my lab . The generator will be inside of the house . Its a 12 volt permanent magnet generator that came off a john dear tractor . I was going to use a GM alternator but they need to turn faster to produce electricity . The neighborhood thinks I’m the nutty professor but hey nothing like living free and i sure don’t worry about the power company shutting off my power .

Tell you the truth its just been a lot of fun building my own system.
