VEVOR 500W Wind Turbine Generator, 12V Wind Turbine Kit with MPPT Controller, 3-Blade Wind Power Generator with Adjustable Windward Direction, 2.5m/s Start Wind Speed for RVs, Boats, Home, Farm

I have been pleasantly surprised by how well this turbine is working in addition to our solar array. In fact I just bought another to add to our hybrid system. It is made of heavy metal construction on the body with the blades a hard resin composite. Easy to install with basic 12v knowledge, not so easy getting 30'in the air to mount. We live in NE Oklahoma and there hasn't been a day since installation that this turbine isn't doing its thing. It does need a HEAVY DUTY pole to be mounted on, sadly the cheap 30' flagpole I originally mounted mine on isn't up to the task.

After installing unit I had trouble with the controller drawing 10 amps off the batteries and not charging. I contacted there tech support, opened a ticket and all I got was a repeat of the installation manual that has nothing to do with the problem. After all the time installing you can’t really send it back. I just want it to work!!!

We live in Iowa where there is a lot of wind. Added this to our garden solar array to run some lights and irrigation controller. Works well and does what it claims. I have 2 complaints. First complaint is mounting. They provide a collar that goes on the top of "a pipe." Unfortunately, that pipe isn't something you can just order. Nobody provides it and the dimensions are not clear. Finally found the right diameter at Lowe's in the electrical section after browsing several with collar in hand. I believe it was a 1.25" threaded steel pipe. $70 for 10 feet. They put 2 screw holes in the upper part of the collar to attach the turbine, but didn't put any in the bottom half to secure it to the pipe. They expect you to weld it on. Two threaded holes on the bottom would have been very handy and wouldn't require a weld joint. So far, we're getting lucky with it just sitting on the pipe - hasn't blown off yet in 30 mph gusts. My second complaint is the lack of information about the 3 wires that come out of it. Turbines are AC power, so they have 3 wires. You'd think there would be a Load, Neutral and Ground, but it doesn't seem to matter - it works no matter how they are connected.

Takes a consistent breeze to get it going. Very quiet.

Much bigger than I expected! The motor is the size of a car alternator, solid aluminum housing, nylon blades. (You will need a 3 wire connector that allows the twisting of wires so they won't break on you when it gets to twisting directions.)

Does not output anywhere near 500watts even at 50mph winds in a coastal region.

good quality works well good value for the money.

Parfait

Didn't try it yet, been so busy, but looking forward to it.

Larger then I thought, not user friendly will need to buy wire and pole to use it havent actually tried it yet

Purchased this weeks ago and still haven’t been able to even get it up due to the pipe size. I can’t even say if it works well or not as I can’t find the pipe to get it up. Instructions are not clear, and vague. Purchased one that has better attachments, I was excited to start this but now I am very disappointed and I haven’t even got it in the air….

Pas de mât de diamètre standard américain pour jumeler avec l’appareil!
