Sorry to bother the list with this kind of BS, but I have a client who
insists this is a revolutionary wind machine design that is not a yard
art scam. Feedback?

Todd,
We're still waiting for verifiable 3rd party energy production data
on this turbine.
Until that happens, this turbine stays on my "not ready for prime
time" list.
As of today, Helix has not seen fit to file a notice of intent to
certify with the
Hiya Todd,
Well, your first clue is that in the video, it's installed about 10' off the
deck.
The second is the claim that it can reduce your power bills by half. That is
particularly interesting when one goes to the website and finds out that it
doesn't even cut in until 11.1mph wind speed
The design looks like a possibility. Statements like it can reduce
your energy bill by half put me off. Home energy uses I've seen
range from less that 200 kWh / mo to over 3000. Half of what? Does
the helix catch enough wind to generate a lot of power?

With all the alleged information on their web site, I couldn't find any
power curves. And their contact us form was only for folks who had
purchased their turbines.
Let the buyer beware!

Wrenches,
In the past month we have encountered some assembly errors on
preassembled E-Panels using the Magnum MS4448PAE and MS4024AE
inverters. Robin Gudgel has become aware of the problems and has
corrected them, but there may be other Wrenches who have installed
Roy is this not the same except fot the ridiges that Mick Sigrillo reported on
in 2009 small wind conference, the same one that I had taken data on? Mick
reported at the rate of energy production it would take 1000 yrs to pay back.
My data was equally bad

I usually recommend retorqueing all connectors once the panel is mounted.
Whether its an E-panel or one we built at the shop, those washboard roads can
loosen stuff that would never have had a problem
otherwise. I'm actually surprised we haven't had more problems like this, even
with internal
