at least as far as i am concerned, i fully understand that there is no free lunch
as a matter of fact you cannot even break even! :)

i have been at this long enough to understand the basic rules of nature/physics/ohms law/etc...

that being if i want more power output (useable), i will have to do one of two (at least) things.

1. either input more power (mechanical), or
2. improve the efficiency of the alternator (electrically)

not much different than the thinking behind all the other conversions on the forum,
but not specifically targeted for windpower use.
lessons learned from the process might very well have broader application for the diy'er wind generators,, who knows until you ask and experiment.

thanks
