Hello Jerry.

Yes, please keep us posted on your observations on your Jerry blades on the Air-X.
I have seen many used Air-X's for sale on E-Bay due to noise and low performance.
Perhaps these modifications will make the Air-X a viable low wattage type genny.
I have a 48 volt UPS battery bank that is on float with grid power and would love to have a decent low wattage wind turbine for battery bank float use.

Thanks, Art.
Lawrence, MI.

Hi Lawrence.

My 403 is a 48 volt unit. Because my blades are desinged for much more tourque and lower rpm I will now be useing this 48 volt genny for 24 volt charging.

Its worthless at 48 volts. However if I use it with the original blades it will act as though it is just shorted out. My blades will have enough tourque to overcome this sudo short condition.
