Updates and New Product announcement

Well it has been awhile since I blogged about anything, so I thought I would give you a little update on the 62' tower in Caro, MI. I spoke to the owners the other day and they said it had produced 410 kwh for the month of December. That is the most I have ever seen any one unit produce in the Mid-West. So the good news is I can a get person wanting a 60' unit like this into for around $18000 - $19000. I will meet or beat anyone's price on a unit this size, that is in writing from a company that installs wind turbines.

The benefits of being this high is because the wind is always moving. I know that the unit in Caro, MI is always spinning. When the unit less than a mile away, which is 45' tall, will not be spinning as much.

I will be back in the Thumb soon to give some of the units a software update that was just released for the inverter. So it will be interesting to see how that will effect the performance of these units. I will blog as this information becomes available.

The Flynn project weather station is back online. I installed new batteries and it is now putting the data back online. If you want see what the weather is doing there follow this link.

If you would like to see what the weather is like here at my office here is that link too. You can also see my web cam of my backyard.

I am also offering a new wind turbine to those that may need a bigger unit. They come in a 6kw and 15kw unit. I have decided to take on the Proven wind turbine line. This turbine is made in Scotland. I can be put on a 60', 80', and 100' lattice type tower. I do not have a price on these units yet, but I am in the process of putting together a price for couple that I meet today that own a horse farm that need a least a 6kw unit. As soon as that price becomes available I will blog that too. Here is the link to the Proven web site. Here is a video of the Proven wind turbine.
