<div dir="ltr">My simple answer is to ask the company for just one customer name (not a million)
with one still working after a year, with contact information to confirm that the product works. Usually that ends the conversation. Just one customer or even just a video with sound and a meter showing output.would be a great step forward. I paid $999 for a "1kw" machine that arrived in good condition with nice blades and well built but the 30" long blades were a dead giveaway that I would not produce anywhere near 1000 watts. Had a nice little controller and dumpload but the best power I saw was 550 watts in a gale. No need for a dump load. Less than a year later it blew to pieces with parts scattered all over my pasture.For nine kw output you would need 10' to 15;+ blades. and the unit would be super heavy.. <div><br></div><div>John Blittersdorf </div><div>CV Wind.</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Jul 6, 2024 at 12:14\u202fPM Christopher Warfel via RE-wrenches <<a href="mailto:re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org">re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><u></u>

curious if anyone knows anything directly about this
