Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Great site.
I am doing something very similar in the UK.
I have a bit to learn yet - but i am making good progress on my new DIY renewable energy website www.gotwind.org
I am  interested in small scale wind generators - I like the micro wind generator on this site based on a piece of PVC tube.
I am currently developing a 6 blade version.
I love the
Fisher & Paykel Smartdrive motors - I wish there were some available in the UK to experiment with.
Keep up the good work.

Hi Ben,

Hows things over in the old UK. I will get over there one day, my Mum is from the UK.

I like the work your doing with the bike dynamos. And that single blade prop is cool.

Looks like we have similar interrests.

Hi Glenn.
The Uk is pretty cold at the moment - 7 degrees C.
Plenty of wind though .

If you are coming to the UK, prehaps you could put a Fisher and Pykel smartdrive motor in your suitcase for me to play with - only joking.
Keep up the good work
Regards
Ben
