I’m not using it, but have done some research. It takes a windy spot to do much good, the power production curve is very low unless those blades are turning fast. I was researching wind generators for a sailboat...

Here in Oklahoma we have lots of natural gas and oil men who hate the wind and complain about winds environmental impacts. They own the legislature.

The best part about Oklahoma is the people. Honest hard-working and mind their own. They will give them a shirt off their back if you are down in your luck. The worst part is the people the people elected.
