Well there are cheaper wind generators. Heck even costco had a decent one for 850..No tower but just a piece of drill pipe would work. I know it sounds weird with me living in Wyoming..but we don't have enough wind at our place to use one efficiently..Go to Cody or especially out to Clark Wy..and oh good grief..I could get rich with a couple of big ones Going to try to put a turbine in the irrigation canal next year..Just a small one. For 6 months of the year..24 hours a day...electricity.. I'll need at least 50 batteries....Speaking of batteries. Have y'all seen the cost for a core charge when you buy a new one?? Heck even the scrap dealers are paying up to 10 bucks each.. BTW you bullet casters..never try to melt the lead in batteries down these days..gases are produced that will kill ya..quickly..
