The Skystream 3.7, a 1.8kw Wind Generator that was developed exclusively for residential grid-tie applications was released earlier this year. The best part – the Skystream was designed to produce electricity in AC (alternating current which is used by most household appliances) instead of DC (Direct Current), which saves customers from having to buy an additional and expensive DC-AC Inverter.
The Skystream 3.7 is available in both Land and Marine models, and in both 120VAC and 240VAC configurations, and features the following:
- 12 ft Rotor Diameter
- Weighs only 154 Lbs
- 3 Fiberglass Reinforced Composite Blades
- Welded Steel Body (Waterproof Powder Coat on Marine Models)
- 120 and 240 VAC
- 1.8 kw Rated Capacity, 2.4 kw Peak Capacity
- Monthly Output of 400 kw / month (@ 12 mph)
- Start up wind speed of 8 mph
- Survival Wind Speed of 120 mph
The Skystream 3.7 is designed to help homeowners save hundreds of dollars a year, and thousands of dollars over a lifetime in electricity costs without forcing them to break the bank to purchase and install the system. In fact, the Skystream can be purchased for around $5400 retail, and generate enough electricity to provide a significant portion of the electrical needs of a regular sized household or small office building.
