This is an independent review we have compiled for your reference. Feel free to add your comments or experiences at the bottom of the page.
Although the Aerogen 4 can be used on yachts and cruisers, this small turbine is more suited to land applications than its close relative the Aerogen 2. It is typically used for street lighting, remote telemetry and data loggers, or could make a small contribution to charging batteries for remote properties or on mobile homes or caravans. aerogen 4 power output curveThe graph below shows the typical power produced (in Watts) for the Aerogen 4 at different wind speeds. A small, lightweight turbine with limited power outputs, but probably enough to keep a small battery topped up.  Blade diameter is an important thing to look at when comparing turbines, since it affects how much power can be captured from the wind. This turbine has a blade diameter of 0.87 metres. How windy? If you are thinking of buying a Aerogen 4, we'd advise measuring your wind resource first. Not just because we sell anemometers but it means you will have a much better idea of how much power you might generate.the aerogen 4 wind turbine in actionAn Aero4gen in operation in low winds, filmed by a British enthusiast.video credit: tonjg costAn aerogen 4 would typically set you back somewhere between £670 and £700.
