The wind turbines have not gone down a storm

They are good for marine craft and can charge up a few batteries. Obviously vibration can be a problem. They should be mounted on vibration absorbing mounts or on a remote pole away from the house. I installed one years ago with support lines to prevent it blowing over in very strong winds. I had a Rutland Furlmatic that automatically rotated in very strong winds across the wind to prevent damage, rather than facing directly into the strong winds. I saw the same model had been installed on a mountain top in Scotland that powered a battery that supplied a T.V. booster relay to a low lying remote village. They are good for trickle charging batteries.
