Ordered my Bergey 1Kw from U.S to U.K
« on: October 16, 2008, 08:35:00 PM »
I have ordered a Bergey XL.1 wind generator from Norman, Oklahoma to the U.K

$300 Air freight cost + whatever import duty??


I'm afraid you will have to navigate to the product page.


http://www.bergey.com/ (I don't like it when you can't paste a specific URL page from a website - seems daft to me)


I can't wait to test it out - I have tested a 500w Chinese copy in the past, and to be honest it worked well, cutting in at just 6-7 mph, I'm not sure how long it will last however, Bergey offer a 5 year warranty which is reassuring.


The Bergey does also have a pretty clever power centre (box) of electronics.


Functional Features: Low-End Boost, Slow-Mode, Electric Brake, 30A Solar Regulator, 60A Dump Load, Timed Battery Equalization, Watt Meter Display Mode, Polarity Checker


Excellent product PDF here.

Page 15 onwards.


Lets wait and see :)
