If it has produced power for two years without failure, I'd put that down as well done. It is one thing to have a starry gennie, and another thing to have a maintenance free one. (even better if it is a starry-maintenance free one)

I have yet to find which one mine is ???... hopefully both.

Good to see. Thanks.

I have my whisper 100 on the roof now, the vibration is not too bad, but when winds hit 50kmh and gusts are in the high 90's things can be a little freaky. Biggest complaint has to be the auto furling and the head dropping back down with a shudder. That sends shockwaves through out the second floor.

I will be pulling it down in the spring and up onto a free standing 60 foot tower, but for the short term it was a solution for power that was pretty much needed.
