Hi litespeed, the blades that it's got now I find that the are the fastest, however when time allows I'm thinking of doing ones made out of wood, has I believe that they are better, we'll see.

Have you thought about going back to your original set of black blades (with less meat) now that you are higher? Just thinking you might get some more RPM's out of it now.

Hi sacongo
cheers for your comments, the only weatherproofing if you could call that is I use a special machine oil that I usually put on my hand tools, planes chisels ect on the front of the generators, that stops the metal going all rusty, it works great, I probably have to do it every 6 to 7 months to make sure that the rust is kept at bay.
cheers

Hello super windy
Great job you can see a big difference, you should trying to get the other one up there.
Question do you do any waterproofing on your generators besides the cover?

cheers keith for your comments, and yes in the ideal world I could raise the turbines maybe 10 to 15 metres above ground and then I wold have a 24hours power station, but nothing is perfect so i guess this may just do for the mean time.
