Attaching the blades to the Skystream.





We have taken the blade plate and hub off of the Skystream. Rena is torquing the blades onto the hub to 50 ft/lbs. I picked up the entire assembly and placed it on the rotor shaft. Then I attached the nose cone. Here is the final product with Rena at 5 ft 1 and 1/2 in.

I would like to know how much your electric bills are being reduced.

We get more benefit from the solar panels than the wind turbine, right now. This winter will be a little different, with the higher wind speeds and shorter days. You really see a difference when the wind speeds are higher which they have not been up to the present. We ordered our monitoring devices for the Sunny Boy and the Skystream so we will be able to follow it more closely.
