Gary,

Thanks for sharing your small turbine experiences. How about the Bergey
XL.1?  We have experience with just a few of them and they are still alive
after nearly a year, but we are in a lower Class 2 wind regime.  Plus they
are very quiet compared to the limited qty of other turbines we have been
around.  From what I can tell they are on the third design upgrade since
they came out with them a few years ago.  Each design gets a little beefier.

You also left out the AWP?  It looks to be a heck of machine but I have no
hands on experience with it.
