Hello Dan,
What I meant to say is that I will only be using this generator to have a light going on at night, but it is my understanding that the extra energy generated by the turbine has to be dumped on to something else after the (1) battery gets fully charged up. Someone had suggested to use a dc pump.
This wind generator uses a modified small car alternator like the ones you see in the ebay auctions. This particular one is supposed to start producing 12 volts at 150 rpm. I have not measured the real output on it as I do not have a multimeter.
I'm really not expecting serious output on this machine.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your input.
