A major U.K DIY chain store B&Q are 'replying to customer demand' and supplying a 1Kw wind generator for roof mounting. £1498 ($2,796 U.S.D)

My fears are that people will be misold or forced to buy through clever marketing, and playing on fears of global warming and rising fuel prices.
I think I am correct in saying that roof mounted wind generators are not the best.
Even Hugh Piggot's website states: 'Rooftop wind turbines are a load of nonsense'
I would like to put a precautionary warning on my website, stating the truth of such installations, such as vibrations to structures, and the true power that could be achieved at lower heights and in built up areas.
My 100w generator only produces 20% power at best in my urban location!!
Any help and advice welcomed.
