well. Monday evening was a bad one for Jones county here in Ga. we had that line of storms come thru. My wind gauge hit 90 mph before it flew away. I lost the blades to one of my turbines. It was the shorter of the two in the pictures. I made the blades my self it was a 6 foot diamerter. then tues it got better. I was at work and got a call from the police that a large swarm was in a tree. I got them. I will post on that later. but I lost no trees but alot of limbs down. we lost power for about 4 hours.

i've been living on a generator and batteries since i moved to alaska.  i keep lookinng at solar panels but haven't had the money.  as far as wind find some place that has a wind gen going and listen to it for a while,  all of em i"ve seen are pretty niosy.  when i get a claim going up here i plan to get a hydro system.  quiet, if your source stream runs year around you have power year around.

Hydro...the cat's meow.  th_thumbsupup
