Its characteristics are a bit short: will it hold on to the battery charge voltage and current?

It is a fan motor and the blade supports too ???

I want to make myself a wind turbine with a 1200Watts falling motor !!!

My neighbor did ...

yes it was the blades and the arms that support the blades was one of my projects and it did not last the arms not strong enough and also just 52 inch in diameter, it still went a long way and the other photo is the white blades that I made with plestiglass
and I took a small propeller from a farm fan I removed the blades and I put mine 3 feet long each and no need to give it an angle the hub is tilted for that and very solid withstands well winds of 90 km but not a wind turbine fall
happy other photo to follow

thanks to looping which puts the photos for me on the forum I really appreciate

a yes by the way my wife tells me that riding wind turbines on time is a disease
I don't think I'm too sick
hihihi

er I forgot to say that it is not a fan motor but a delco remy alternator with modified stator which starts at 175 rpm with an ordinary rotor not with magnet but with blade and fan arm. When the alternator reached its 150 rpm the blow that it gave slowed down the wind turbine enormously due to the fact that the blades were not big enough and therefore did not provide a lot of current except not very strong wind

ok if i understand correctly i would need a shunt regulator which when the batteries charge the current well would derive green resistance like ventilo light or other source of energy

ok other question is can I recover part of a computer power supply to make me a shunt regulator with motivation if yes er well with a shema or instruction
please

not very used to mounting complex circuits

Hello,

If you don't feel like building in electronics you can use everything:

Otherwise, a comparator, a power transistor and a strong relay and roll my chicken !!

ok I find it easier to modify my stator and keep the same regulator (this is original) but my other alternator loads more with a magnet rotor but cannot use the regulator due to the fact that I have more field on the rotor and therefore the regulator can no longer use the rotor to smooth : Cry:

better: we could unload by cutting to really use all the force of the wind. This technique would also have the advantage of braking the wind turbine and reducing its voltage range, therefore reducing thermal losses in shunt regulation.
so we could dramatically increase the yield
also valid for PV panels
