I need to run my cable through some PVC tomorrow, and get all the cables tied down. I highly doubt my angle is correct, problem for future me (mounting brackets are adjustable).
Inside the shed i have a Jackery 2000 v2. I have all of my cordless tool batteries out there to charge. I also have an LED shop light, and a charging station for the wife, and my escooters.
Have you checked wind loading in your area? These things can become a sail very easily and need to be securely mounted as to not go flying. Also the metal frames need to be grounded, I don't see a grounding wire?
Not to be down on your project, it's a cool project, but I wouldn't want your work to go to waste within a year.
Alternately, maybe a combo solar/wind power tower it could be...
I feel you brother, but small scale wind is pathetic. It makes so much noise and produces fuck all for energy. If you look into the amount of engineering that goes into large scale wind mills, it's crazy. They are really pushing the limits of what humans can do and end up with pretty good stuff. I'm all for windmills and would love to have one. But I've looked into it and it sucks ass for small scale.
