Robert Murray-Smith – A Wind Generator That Works Even When The Wind Stops Blowing

Summary:
This guy has designed his own wind generator, along with some help from his subscribers. He says that getting other people to help him greatly improved its design, whereas if someone hangs onto an idea in the hope of getting rich, they may never get to produce it, because they can get stuck and not be able to think out of the box. So his design is open source, and he mentions the areas where he thinks it can be improved, if anyone wants to have a go.The turbine only delivers 270ma, but four of them would be able to generate one amp, which is a fair bit of current. Most electrical goods in the home nowadays are low current, eg, computers, laptops, TVs, Hi-Fi's, etc, but not those in the kitchen that heat things up. [embedded content]
