Wind Turbine Home Furnishings? [RE-wrenches]

It reminds me of our Canadian Tire stores. They tried selling something
like the SunWize Portable Power Generator - battery/inverter plus solar
panel OR an Air 303!.
 I believe it was made by Ontario Hydro (That's another strange story.)
Anyways, no one there could answer any questions. There was a 1-800
support line, but they just mailed out brochures when you asked
questions. Within 6 months they stopped appearing on shelves.

Maybe one day solar modules  will be as common as small IC generators
and your average handy-person will know what a failed bypass diode means
as certainly as they now know what water in the fuel line means.
However, I can't see the handholding ending any time soon when it comes
to windpower.
