Okay, so I did the math to figure out what size charge controller I needed, and then noticed that the only MPPT charge controllers I could find that would run a 48VDC battery system were the OutBack ones.  Only problem is that the spec sheet for those controllers says: "Consult factory for approved hydro/wind turbines."  Do you know of any problems that might arise with turbines that would fry a controller?  I tried to find a post that talked about such things, but came up with nothing.

If I would be better served by posting this question in the wind section, I'll ask over there instead.  Thanks.
