I have been testing, to find a good, reliable, simple and cheap solution for a controller, to warm with windpower.

NOW there is a solution;

This will work with any windgenerator with nominal voltage about 200-250-300V.
It can be higher, but then you must have capacitors, that can take more
than 440V. Those can be found in the same factory and with same capacity.
They are a bit more expensive.

It really works and ALL the power is produced to warm, without any batteries,
electronics... etc
It works in every place !

Ps. In Finland its just beginning the Polar night and we see the sunlight
next time...
BUT the winds are getting better all the time.

Hi Anteror

I cant get that link to work.

Could you repost it using the Link button

hello and thanks Anteror,
could you give a comparison of the resistance in ohms of the heaters to the resistance of the alternator phases?
perhaps 10 to 1 ?

your post is of interest to me anteror as i have four little vertical mills locked down for want of a load and have no interest in batteries or grid tie
in Canada we are also loosing our daylight and winter winds are very strong.
the idea of each of them producing a bit of heat is appealing.
i don't have an alternator output to adapt your design directly
i was wondering if i could simply scale the resistance and capacitance down to my own needs.

We tested this for a long time, with try and error and with all kind of
capacitors and connection ways.

This power capacitor for power correction (that I mention in my story), was the only one, that gave enough current through, to work as controller in this
system.

To Electrondaddy1; Buy one set of these capacitors and try with different
resistance.

You must connect these capacitors like this;
