More efficient generator for wind turbines
Article here.   Sounds pretty good.  Back when I was building wind generators, we used Volkswagen generators because we could get them easily.   This was back when Volkswagens were air-cooled, so we had to make do with primitive stuff then.

This generator looks as if it will do well at low power ranges, but I dunno about higher power ratings.

Build a wind generator

Great blog, we remember using an old automobile generator on some of our earlier testing to build a wind generator for our home.
Have opted for using DC motors instead, easy to find and really inexpensive to build a wind generator to power your home. Now have 3 running our off grid home (15 years now)
If any of your readers want to learn more just contact us at

All the best,
