| Hello, I have a 24v wind turbine. It has 12 2x1x1/2 magnets, 8 coils wired in star, made of 16AWG with 100 turns each, and there is about 1/16 airgap between the magnets and the coils. There is only one steel rotor, as I find a dual rotor to be complicated, but that is another story. My problem is I think it has a cut in speed of about 250rpm. I can't seem to make a set of blades that will get that thing to charge my batteries until the wind hits about 15 mph. Even then it will only hit about 50 watts max. On 25mph days I see about 100 watts and thats only if the wind is really hitting it straight on. I currently have a 2 blade prop that spans about 7'5". But i'm sure even that is too big. It starts up good though just not enough rpm.
I need some help and I appreciate it, Thankyou.
