How to build a mini windmill?
I need to make a windmill that will generate just enough power to power a small television.
Can this be done?
There are a number of ways to build a small scale windmill,but if you plan on powering a small TV you’ll definitely need some batteries. The power produced by a windmill is usually DC power,or Direct Current. The AC (Alternating Current ) that your TV runs on will need a charge inverter,as well as a steady supply of power from batteries. Windmills produce power in direct correlation with the amount of wind produced. I would recommend a small charge controller (so you don’t blow your system on very windy days) and some deep cycle batteries (marine,golf cart batteries.) The wind will charge the batteries while you are away,and they will provide steady power for your television or other small appliances . Just make sure to check the wattage and voltage so you know how many batteries to get.
In regards to making the windmill,Any tree would work fine,prune the top branches,design a windmill with a car alternator and your own custom fins. A power generator is just a magnet spinning inside a coil of conductive wire (copper). A will functioning car alternator would work well,and is inexpensive to produce if you have some fabricating experience. Climb up the tree (Be Careful!) and attatch the windmill securely and run your wires to the facility you need to power. I would recommend a height of about 15ft min,depending on the wind in your area.
