It will not be damaged in higher winds if installed correctly You would be best served by the DC-540 Low Wind PMA. It will not be damaged in higher winds if installed correctly

I've noted generators are either low wind or high wind. I want to put the generator in a valley which seems to have a constant 5 to 10 Kph breeze but can get howling winds 100Kph as we get closer to winter. So I scratch my head and wonder>>>>>which one is best? I'd hate to damage a low speed generator in a high winter wind. Any ideas would be appreciated.

If you keep your rpm's between 300 - 500 you will not have a problem. We just don't want people thinking that a pulley means it can be put a motor and ran up.

It winds and unwinds itself with the wind change and when it is at rest. I know it sounds doubtful but we have had ours up for several years now with no problems.

I am considering setting up a Windblue system. Being new to this world. Have some basic setup questions. How is wiring routed from the generator to the battery? It seems the cable would be wound around and around the tower with variable wind directions. Thanks Greetings – I also appreciate the new blog. I am considering setting up a Windblue system.

Since that is not neccessary in our application it is not in our pma's. Thanks for the question, I am really excited about the blog and hope to ba able to keep it interesting for everyone.

WindBlue does sell charge controllers if your's does not work out. I am not familiar with that controller. WindBlue does sell charge controllers if your’s does not work out.

Does anyone have an opinion or experience with either or both?
