Secondhand Proven 2.5kW 48V turbine

I have been asked to mention a 2.5kW Proven wind turbine (nowadays “KingspanWind”) that is available factory reconditioned.  I installed this turbine in the Highlands in summer of 2004, charging a 48V battery as part of a hybrid power system for a private client.  It caused no bother and was given no further attention, until it burned out last year.  I have not been shown any pictures of the damage but I understand this failure was attributed to a lightning strike, and was covered by insurance so the client got a new turbine under his insurance.  The original turbine has been factory reconditioned but is now for sale to cover the cost of this reconditioning.  It comes with blades but no tower.  It’s a solidly built machine that is good for at least another 12 years service, or more if the lightning will stay away.  Get in touch and I will send details of how to contact the seller as usual.

Tech specs 2.5kW
