These turbines are designed for different wind conditions and applications, offering renewable energy solutions for remote homes, telecommunications, and other rural applications.

Specifications:

Whisper 100: Best suited for moderate to high wind conditions (9 mph/4 m/s and above). It is capable of producing 100 kWh per month at an average wind speed of 12 mph (5.4 m/s).
Whisper 200: Ideal for low to moderate wind conditions (7 mph/3 m/s and above). It features a larger swept area with a 9-foot (2.7 m) blade, providing twice the energy output of the Whisper 100.

Energy Output:

Whisper 100: Produces between 650 to 5400 watt-hours per day depending on wind speed.
Whisper 200: Produces between 1500 to 8400 watt-hours per day depending on wind speed.

System Integration: Whisper wind generators can be combined with photovoltaic solar panels to create a hybrid system, balancing wind and solar resources for year-round energy production. The system includes a Whisper Charge Controller and optional digital display for monitoring energy production and battery status.

Installation and Siting: Proper siting is crucial for optimal performance. The turbine should be placed 20 ft (6 m) above any surrounding object within a 250 ft (76 m) radius. Considerations include wind resources, zoning laws, and land availability.
