The Turbine Tail kit by Soliex, Inc. turns any GM 10SI/12SI alternator into
a simple source of energy for off-grid applications. In addition to the GM
alternator purpose built PMG can be mounted as well. Simple hand tools and
a rivet gun is all that is needed to assemble the Turbine Tail kit or purchase
assembled(some assembly still required). The Turbine Tail is perfect for charging
battery banks year round and has features not found in any other turbine of
this size:

Looking from the top, the images below depict the Turbine Tail rotor positions at different wind speeds. From left to right the images would indicate no wind or low wind conditions, the center at higher speeds and the right image in a fully furled condition.
The graph below shows the results of testing the prototype Turbine Tail with the the rotor/gen combinations listed above. As can be seen, both turbines begin to produce voltage at a wind speed between 8 and 10 MPH then rise from there until the furling action results in a voltage drop around 35 MPH; this feature alone separates us from other turbine of this size operating in high winds.
