I sell residential wind turbines and most are available with an adapter to “plug in” solar panels. That way there is no need to rewire to your home. Your ready to roll.
@812anita thats awesome!!!
Looking at videos today. I like the clip, nice job joebro32, have a look at my Home Wind Turbine videos and subscribe or friend me if you like.
Made in Denmark
WOW! Great report! two thumbs up!
Big wind turbines are the wrong way to go. These are just too big, too much. 7% of all the electricity is lost in transmission. Wasteful. The same raw materials and labor should go to putting smaller rooftop wind turbines at the point of use. Then the 7% for the life of the equipment will be saved, used. Look at my videos of wind power, it’s a far better approach than these big wind farms. Peace.
This guy Dan in the purple shirt was probably against the wind turbins, so when he saw others making money, and he aint, now he’s crying fowl…tough shit dude..
This is all good – just one or two little trolls who think theyre ugly. Fuck em. Wind baby, wind.
i like it. Look at my Home Wind Turbine videos, pretty cool system I put on my Home Rooftop. My RoofMill design just won a green design contest. Friends and subscribers welcome.
do you really think that when they throw the big switch on all this stuff yur electric bill is gonna down lol or better yet roflmao its all shakin hands now its all good lol but wait theyll start passin these laws on yu little guys soon ordinances laws taxes it will be so expensive or criminal to have yur own panels or turbine lol and yull say why is elec so expensive theyll say cause were savin the earth lol lol
They don’t look monsters to me.
@mollydtt …and nothing looks worse in our skies than pollution:)
There may be so many of those turbines, but West Texas WILL benefit from the investment in wind energy. A lot of the towns that previously were dying will now find a new lease on life that’s cleaner and safer. Plus, the turbines are also, admittedly, so much fun to look at.
midland is really bland scenery, but east of ft. stockton it is not so bad. if anyone reading this has never been in west texas, let me tell you, there is nothing like it. you have only one town over 10,000 people along I-10 it is impressive, if intimidating in its remoteness. drive from san antonio to el paso and you have covered 1000 km with a population of less than 50,000.
And I thought that nothing good came out of Texas
Reap that wind!
when did you rednecks ever become interested in green tech, i though u idiots were too busy trying to put us blacks back into slavery.
Thanks! We build those whirly gigs here in Pcola, FL.
@pimezon
Maybe, maybe not.
And please, don’t call me a bro
This guy who claims to be offended by his neighbors ability to have wind machines on his property, maybe he refuse to have those Wind Turbines on his property, now that his neighbors are making money, he is pissed off he didnt jump on the wind Turbine train, and it left him…

@nomadnametab
you r rite. Just moved to west from central Texas. Went from a city of over 112,000 to less than 500 people. Beautiful mountains, wide open space. Not for the faint of heart. Only a select few could survive in the west.
west texas the 4 greatest nation i thougt it was a state fuckn retarded ass moron reporter and yeah wind and solar are taking over if thats gods will
we COULD do that or we can also pay hardcore kids to windmill in those windy places.
Blow Baby Blow…
