I am curious as to how much they are? If your not comfortable posting it up send me a PM please. How much power would they generate in your area i cannot say that i have paid attention to how much the wind blows but i am thinking its not windy enough to make that much power but i could be wrong. I would be very interested in doing something like this.

Thanks Keith

I would for sure be interested too. I'm looking to build a new home and now is the time to investigate this stuff.

www.windterra.com has some info on energy to windspeed ratios. But if the wind is givin you can get 1200watts.
Price point I would say you can get them around $8500 plus install. (I bought the prototypes so my price isn't retail)
