Most of the wind turbine posts I am seeing don't end well. Is anyone successfully using wind? I live completely off grid. I just purchased a 48v large solar system. I live in Colorado and get a lot of sun. We are building our house down in the woods but about a football field away is a tall open hill. The views are amazing and everyone thinks we are crazy for not putting our house there. Our only answer is , the wind. I put a decorative windmill up there and the wind shredded it. I think this could be a great place to harvest wind at night. Also, our only non sunny days it is cloudy and snowy which always means wind. Its far enough from the house I don't think we would hear it. How big would I have to go turbine wise to be worth it as many of the posts say go pretty big. Would love to hear if anyone is doing this.
