hello this is the a going off grid series we're going to do a review
on putting up the wind turbines stay tuned
do
hello welcome back to pine meadows hobby farm i'm your host jerry hansen i'm going to do a review
on my going off grid series and we're putting together a air x wind turbine that generates 24
volts of power to charge the batteries so we're going to assemble it and put it together and
put it up in the middle of my garden let's get started enjoy the music now what you see here
there's three poles here uh we have a 24 foot pole and we have a 21 foot pole in addition we have
another 21 foot pull now this extra 21 foot pull is a gin pole and you will see later in the video
on what a gin pull is used for now we'll have a total of 45 foot mast and uh this is a schedule
uh schedule 30 pipe this is all the equipment you're going to be needing to put the the math up
now here you have your guy wire set now these guy wire set along with the other parts i'm going
to show you just for the mast kit they come in a kit and they come separately the air axe windmill
i bought it came in a package system that i purchased from wholesale solar along with my solar
mounting kit and my solar panels my charger my inverter and all that but this comes separate for
uh putting your windmill on a mast and i'll give the uh give the website instructions right here
uh just click down below and then i'll take you to their website and you can order this
anyway there's two sets one is for the center where the two pipes actually join
together you've got the 21 foot pipe on the bottom and the 24 foot pipe on the top
and they mount they join together right here this splices the pipes together and this will be the
lower set now this is the upper set this mounts three feet below the top of the mast on which the
air x amounts uh this will give it plenty of blade clearance when the blades are spinning i also have
four of these ten or these are actually eight foot these are four eight foot long
conduit just water pipe but this is then you can use any kind of water conduit
that you want now what these are is they'll go over the guy wire kits at the base of it so when
the guy wire is passing through this and if you should bump into that you're not going to hurt
yourself because it's a an extra protection on it plus it gives the wire visibility because the wire
is tends to blend in with the environment and so that's what those are so that's um all the pieces
required for putting together a mast and putting up your air x windmill so let's get started
do
well i hope you guys enjoyed this review on putting up the air x wind turbine
it's been serving me okay but not the greatest because
here at my new homestead we just don't have the wind that we used to have at the other farm
