Leading Edge Leading Edge LE-600 Advanced 12V Wind Turbine Kit
The LE-600 wind turbine is our 1.54m Dia wind turbine that produces 160W at wind speeds of 8m/s (18mph). The Tristar 60A diversion charge controller is used to divert excess power to the 1000W Dump load when the batteries are full. A dedicated solar charge controller should be used for the PV with both the wind turbine and PV connected directly to the batteries. A 3-pole Run/stop switch to stop the turbine when it needs taking down for maintenance completes the kit.Please note the LE-600 is not suitable for locations where the winds regularly gust to over 18m/s (40mph).Mount the turbine on a standard scaffold pole (50 or 60.3mm outer diameter).
