   WORLD RECORD: BIGGEST WIND TURBINE

   Visit: windturbinecarriedbywheels.weebly.com

   ZERO-NOISE from the gears and the generators because they are sealed underground (Only the outer parts of the turbines may be heard.).

   SAVES THE BIRDS AND BATS because the turbines are slow-moving since the speed is in the transmission gears and in the generators.

   DOES NOT NEED TO OCCUPY A WIDER LANDSCAPE because the turbine can be very tall.

   HELPS THE WIND ENERGY COMPANIES because it is FREE FOR ALL.

   Looks very very strange that it is possible to produce energy from such turbine, more than to light several LEDs…
   We know the subject, we know what we say.
   Well, now this “turbine” rotates without any generator, it’s free rolling.
   Attached to generator – it is ENERGY, it need to WORK to produce energy (rotating frame in magnetic field)!
   Where is it?
   Send PROOFS that it works better, that any other turbines. But do not call “children propeller” as powerful wind turbine!

   wow, little wind to operate! But wait, low wind still mean low energy. look up betz law. If you get 50W in winds of 5 m/s you get 1350 W in 15 m/s.

   Dyocore has a 1.6 Kw 70 inch Small Wind turbine that is California Energy Commision approved for Roof top mount and it only needs small winds…its a entirely new electrical generator design and in medium winds one will put out 2.2 Kw…. put 5 on your roof and its a 10 Kw system and the price is minimal and its already working technology…..Nothing in the world can even come close to Dyocore right now…..NOTHING.

   I’ve made turbines similar to that and about the same size. My guess is that that one will produce about 20 Watts in a good wind. Is that a 1/10 scale prototype perhaps?

   @centervilletn
   It works with a permanent magnet stator giving you AC output that will need to be rectified in DC for battery charging and then back to AC via Inverter.

    @WindEnergy7 It would work great in my area where the prevailing wind was from one direction like the coast or something. Our wind comes frome the west 70% of the time. Im in.

    where is the generator? anyone seen this or have an idea …all it is a big ole spinning barrel ..no indication on how it converts to electricity?…

    put solar panels on the blades of any wind turbine and get both powers at once and if one is not being used the other one is being used.kenneth van horn

    Why not he says…Whack a few on the roof and save a few bikkies, piss the power companies off, and get pissed…

    You can actually place wind turbine on the top of your house like an antenna. That’s one good location that has an instant access with the wind. High locations are usually open air since there’s nothing that blocks the wind. Aside form that, you can also place other turbines anywhere in your house for as long as there’s no blockage in the said area. It’s a good idea to have wind turbines within your house to be the main source of electricity. It’s practical and can lessen your bill a lot.

    @zkxv bether no invention, than reinventing the windturbine, but doing it in an inefficiant way.

    hi, nice video. Friends and Subscribers welcome if you want to have a look at my Home Wind/Solar Energy stuff. I won a Green Design Contest with my system on Earth Day. Have a look if you like.

    But if the windmill was just vertical instead of horizontal it could catch wind from any direction. When it is horizontal like that it can only catch wind from a limited direction.
