I think they're also good as a bird repellant, noise maker, etc. but I've never
seen one actually make over 175 watts, and that was a 1 sec burst in strong
wind. SWWP always said the low output was due to the thinner air at high
altitude, but th
I would have gone with the Outback inverter and let the solar and wind turbine
put power into the grid via the outback.

Give it a resistor to work against and call it Kinetic Yard Art. Not worth much

I've grid tied a few battery based turbines now, both the 403 and Bergey XL1.
You can use a very small sealed battery (180 AH @ 24v), so that would take care
of the maintenance issue.
Cost on the other hand doesn't make sense, unless they want some emergency
backup capability.

The Air403 would need a battery to operate. It will not work without one,
so if you are removing all batteries because of inability to maintain
them, this may not work. If you DO keep a small battery onsite for the
AIR403 to charge, it can be interfaced to the grid with a battery based
inverter suc
Hi Peter,
The AIR units are designed for battery charging, so unless you are installing
an AC coupled system using Enphase inverters along with a battery-based
inverter this won't be easy and maybe not possible. If you are planning a
battery-based inverter in the system, and you use the AIR to
Peter, they may love it but it's battery-based only. I'm not aware
of any way to use it except to charge batteries.

Hi Dana,
The battery and all associated equipment is being totally removed as the folks
are now unable to do the required maintenance. They really love the little Air
403 and would like to interface it if at all possible even if it doesn't make
economical sense.

The Air is DC, wouldn't it just feed the battery bank and
there for less from the PV to the battery bank and therefore
more PV to go to the grid tie...
It is a mighty small unit to go to the effort to grid tie
unless he has a 18MPH+ yearly wind speed. If he has that
much wind go for a SWWP - Sk
I have a client with an independent power system who is going utility
interfaced. We are putting the 24 volt arrays on Ephase inverters. He wants the
Air 403 to be interfaced as well. Has anyone done this and if so, how ? Thanks

Hello Jesse,
There is one truss manufacturer we work with who will not let us lag into the
truss, and they require blocking or scabbing on another rafter to attach to.
