Elite rotors

The Tri-Nado Elite
On an SC-120 Hornet Alternator
Both of Brian's units and a very nice looking home.
I did warn Brian of the poles he used.
He has since gotten them welded up.
Comments from Brian
Terry,
Getting back to you on the pair of blades I bought from
you. Everything is up and flying, and working fine. I have seen 66 volts
from the system (on 15 foot poles, below the tree line), and its obvious
that the Tri Nado Elite starts rotating first but shortly there after
the Boast Buster starts rotating and as the wind speed goes up the boast
buster's rotational speed quickly out paces the Tri Nado Elites
rotational speed. So, its obvious that the Boast Buster is carrying the
SC120 load. I was putting 30 volts (100 watts) into my hot water
heater element (4500 watt, 230 volts) yesterday afternoon, on just some
gentle breezes.
Now that I have everything sorted out (thanks to your blades), I plan to
put the two turbines on a much taller towers (out of the tree line, and
above the house, probably on 36 foot towers). I also plan to build a 3
to 1 drive for the Tri Nado Elite, as its rotational speed needs to be
sped up for the SC120.
If someone wants to do this on there own, I suggest they use one Boast
Buster with one SC120 Hornet, and go from there. It will drive a hot
water heating element, or other 120 / 240 volt resistance load just fine
- with variable voltage - a real KISS.
Please feel free to put all of this on your sight so that others can
build on what I have learned.
Take Care,
Brian Frymiare
