I've got a couple of items on ebay at the moment:
A 12v 105Ah deep cycle battery (I've actually got four to sell)
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=120228882473&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=002
and a 51W solar panel
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=120229238880&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=002
I've also built another small turbine from a DC motor I imported from the States. It's currently being tested in my back garden (bench tested at 9 amps ish). I'm open to offers if anyone is interested but if not I'll be sticking it on ebay in a week or two.
Cheers

hi sundowner
the 450 grm refers to weight of the matting in sq mtrs, its a standard used through out industry, you get all grades and its sold by its "weight per sq metre" just nice to see ya taking notice ....lol.

My tuppence ha'penny worth, I can't do the maths on these blades if each blade is 3 layers of 450g glass fibre how come they're only 600g with 2 coats of primer.
Doesn't he also state glass reinforced plastic blades.
Nice looking blades
They look nice and would be ideal here where our planning laws state that turbines must be of uniform colour, that colour being grey.

hi ben
i can assure you they are 100% fibreglass, peter has been making these blades for many years whilst he lived up here on the west coast of scotland, long before he moved to cornwall, so for me the plus is if he says they will work in my conditions i'm more than happy to try them, he made this set for my futurengy, just the same model he uses for testing his blades on, i just hope the bearings hold out for more than a week....lol. he is at present working on some 3mtr blades for me for another project i have on the go. but when the wind drops for me to re-install this futurenergy i'll post some photos of them, and i'll see what this white rascal can really put out.

They certainly look like fiberglass to me .. just a similar profile to PVC. |

I tried quite recently to order a set of the 8.5 ft blades from magnet4less, intending to bolt them to my own hub, but the website didn't want to play when I wanted them shipped to UK. Perhaps you could help?

Donnie,
They are just pvc blades with a fibre glass hub - they are exactly the same as the ones i sell plans for.
There will be no airfoil on them, and won't perform well with the fururenergy pmg in my opinion.
The title is very misleading, and he should be told.
