hello hugh i am building the your 4.2 turbine can you tell me or supply me with the electrics i need to power an immersion heater directly thank you anthony
Will the TS-45 function with a bank of ultra-capacitors, configured as a 12 or 24 bank, rather than a traditional lead-acid battery bank?
Yes that is possible although it would void the warranty on the Tristar. it’s actually a good idea if you only want heat. I am not sure of the exact best vallue of capacitance since I ahve not actually done this although I have done it using Solar Converters LDR circuits, which I also sell for slightly lower cost.

hi thomas,
Wenn Sie einen Gesamtpreis benötigen Sie müssen mir sagen, Ihre Adresse und kann ich herausfinden, die Versandkosten für Sie dann. If you need a total price you need to tell me your address and I can find out the delivery cost for you then.

Hugh,
I just recently completed the assembly of my home made wind system. It is composed of 2 rotors, 8 magnets (50 x 50 x 12) each, a stator with 6 coils (16 awg, 100 turns each). The rotor diameter is 1.5 meter. While I am able get 12 volts at a low speed (125 rpm), the system is not able to generate enough a amperes at higher speeds and seems to be stalling beyond 3 amps. Could u please help me figure out what could be going wrong?
hi Bipin,
You don’t tell us the battery voltage nor whether the coils are in series or parallel. But overall I suspect your cut-in is too low and the alternator is way oversized for a 1.5 diameter set of blades, both of which will lead to stalling of the blades. You could try working at a higher voltage or increasing the gap between the magnets, or putting a resistor in the line from the rectifier to the battery all of which will increase the rpm and help avoid stalling.
Hugh
