WindSkull
When the Rat isn’t making iPhone games or indulging his inner sarcasm, he’s working on this Experimental Wind Turbine design. A drag-based variable geometry configuration that is optimized for low-average wind speed applications. The patent was just issued in 2010, so we can finally disclose the details of how it works. Ultra-high efficiency for power generation at low wind speeds Slow RPM speed Low Profile Lower Cost Now I just need $45,000 to build a full-size unit and begin collecting field data. With any luck, some remarkably clever soul will see the brilliance in this and help me make this a reality. Why the odd name? The basic operating principle is similar to a sculling oar. Only the medium...
