The panning back and forth is telling you that the machine is too low to the ground and is sitting in turbulence. This robs the turbine of power because the wind is being diverted to several different directions instead of being cohesive.
Thank you, yes it was great to see some output, today the weather is back to still, the controller worked well and very impressed with it. I will be adding another two 330w solar panels to the system this coming week to get things ready for the electric van I am planning to purchase for work 👍👍
I could not see much vibration from the video, did you ever fix the issue? or figure it out? sometimes blades will be bent and have forward/backward thrust causing vibration
Bert... You know the trees are a problem, why haven't you tried elevate this one another 7-10 meters? Surely this one isn't as top heavy as the previous wind turbine?
Unfortunately the property doesn’t belong to me, it’s my father’s property and he refused to allow me to go up any higher as he suffers from extreme paranoia. Once I can afford my own place rest assured the turbine will be up as high as I can get it safely.
@@offthegridwithbert924 Thanks, Bert... I knew there had to be a reason because you're clever enough to put these systems together and get them working, more or less. It must be terribly frustrating though. Think he might buy off on the already proven light refraction invisibility cloak using lots of angles with large sheets of Mylar? 😎🙃🤣
@@offthegridwithbert924 No need to lift the windmill higher! It is enough to increase the number of blades with a mandatory reduction in the diameter of the turbine.
I greet you too many trees around makes the wind form swirls and does not have a fixed direction. Because of this the turbine does not work in parameters (my opinion) 😁
Hello, I'd like to ask you - What is the noise level of your iSTA breeze i1500 at 6-8m/s wind speed and are there some vibrations, sensible on your roof construction?
Hi, it’s very quiet, the noise level was much less than I anticipated, the 5 blade design is definitely quieter than a 3 blade design. There is audible noise from the alternator which you can hear below but the building is a carport so it’s not an issue, Ista do make a noise dampening mount for these turbines is noise is an issue.
@Slavery is Freedom, War is Peace it's nigh on 500 watts, without knowing what the wind speed was at the time it's impossible to make a determination as to how efficient that is. He says he has seen 2k, the wind in the video did not appear to be very strong. I would say it's working pretty well, which is great news as I intend to buy one.
All practical tests show that small wind turbines hardly generate any electricity! And only at very high costs! Because there is hardly any wind close to the ground. It is also extremely gusty, which usually shortens the service life extremely! Only if you need to be off grid in winter & live close to the sea, you should install the largest possible wind turbine on a high mast. With solar modules, on the other hand, reliably generate electricity for 25 to 30 years at approx. 2% to 5% of the cost of small wind turbines! With 8 - 10 bifacial modules, you can generate approx. 3-4 kWh per day even in winter.

Yeah I know, sadly I cannot get it above the tree line I’d need a 20 meter tower, once I move from here to a more open area hopefully better results.
Glad to see it up and spinning, seems like a good wind controller you got there. Thanks for the update, see you in the next one. 😊

I have exactly the same thing that when the wind is coming from the north it's twice as powerful at the same speed or so it seems.
Impressive work.
Great stuff 👍

Wow good job 👏
Good job! Is that the ista breeze controller as well?

Hi!
Name of controller you use for wind turbine,thank you!
Would also like to know what MPPT controller are you using. Thanks in advance.

Why don’t you put up the insta in a tree :-) then you get higher
HI Bert - What controller are you using there? ( Ebay/AliExpress item I assume ? ).
Yeah it’s from Avian Wind & Solar on AliExpress
Good work 😀
Hello Bert, How is the turbine going? Any more experiences in lower wind? What output do you get at 5m/s? Thanks!
.
It’s still going well, best power production is in 7m/s winds I’ve found.
bit close to the ground eh ?
Is this sale in india
Hey mate, just wondering where you got the ista breeze? Anywhere in Aus?
Cheers
I got it through eBay, no Aussie sellers of it but if there was you’d be paying way more, postage was fast is was here in two weeks direct from Turkey
I have the same turbine and need a high quality regukator with auto brake. Any suggestions?
Check out my video on the controller please
Put up a 60’ tower and all your problems will magically go away.

Hi. I've got 3 blade version and its starts around 8m/s. Whats wrong with it?
3 Blade turbines are better less fowling so they spin faster, however 5 blades is bet for lower wind areas and start at lower wind speeds
My friend a question, how many amperes (watts) This taurine (i1500) gives practically when the wind is good
I have seen a consistent average of 500 to 800 watts and even saw 2000w in one big gust the other week.
@Slavery is Freedom, War is Peace it’s a 48v system so amps are lower at a given wattage.
@Slavery is Freedom, War is Peace ...and the trees all over too

I think the turbine spouse to be vertical because the wind in rounding
Don't buy istabreeze, they're a total waste of money, the company don't care to help either.
Rubbish, I have an istabreeze 1000W and it performs really well. It made 12kWh in one day.
@@kevinmills5293 then there's appears to be a quality control issue aswell as a customer service issue.
@@masterjones6714What do you mean? 12kWh is pretty good for 1kW turbine.
