Re: [RE-wrenches] Et tu Honeywell?

[Roy Butler]

As I understand it, Honeywell makes one small component in the wind turbine controller. But the consumer is going to see the Honeywell brand and figure it has to be good. I just love marketing! FYI....I'm every bit as excited to see wind turbines in retail stores as the PV folks are about PV sold at Lowes, etc. Let the games begin....

David Katz wrote: The Honeywell turbine appears to be made by a company called Windtronics, which is a division of Earthtronics.  Earthtronics appears to sell CFL light bulbs.  I have talked to several people at Windtronics who cannot answer any technical questions.  True Value Hardware is giving out brochures for the wind generator. The brochure claims 2500 KW per year in calss 4 winds.  I list them as vapor ware for now.  At least until someone calls me back.
