Sunforce Air X Marine Wind Turbine

Sunforce Air X Marine Wind Turbine The Sunforce Air X Marine Wind Turbine is another great personal wind turbine from Southwest Windpower. It has a small form factor and a stylish look that will turn heads when mounted on your bow or anywhere else on your boat. It has a smart controller built in so it can control the blades rotation speed which helps cut down on noise and it starts making electricity at just 6 knots or 7 miles per hour wind speed.

Also included is a great 3 year warranty! This is a wind turbine that will be around for years to come guaranteed! The current Amazon price is just $719.60 USD.

Here is the Amazon Product Description:

"The Sunforce AIR X Marine Wind Turbine is the world's number one selling small wind turbine for sailboats. The unit incorporates a new microprocessor based technology that results in increased performance, improved battery charging capability, greater reliability and the reduction of "flutter" noise from the machine. The controller allows for peak-power tracking of the wind by optimizing the alternator's output on all points of the cubic curve and efficiently delivers the energy to the battery. The turbine's smart controller allows it to actually control blade rotation speed thus eliminating the buzzing noise commonly found with most small wind turbines."


UPDATE: August 31, 2012

The Sunforce AIR X Marine Wind Turbine is no longer available at Amazon. Sunforce is a rebranding of the Southwest Wind Power product line, so the closest alternative products would be the Air Breeze 24V Wind Turbine and the Air Breeze 12V Wind Turbine avaiable through altestore.com.
