    You can also make your experiment on building a wind power (windmill) In your house. It is really easy to do and I’m sure that would be very exclusive. here is a guide that would help you: http://orrely.earth4.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=YA
    it costs a little money but i’m sure it would be worthwhile.
    Good Luck!

    Take a personal fan (like one of those ones from the dollar store), replace the blades with much larger ones made from cardboard or thin plastic packaging, then link the electrical leads from the motor to an LED and a resistor. Turn the blades and the LED lights up.

Hi, I’m Erik Astrand and the man behind this site.

My story?
I am about to be 50 and all my life I have been interested in technical things. Not sure if the special interest for the wind, and how to use the wind, started when I as a 5 year old boy and got my first sail dinghy.

Anyway, wind power and to build my own wind generator was a dream for several years. I studied many websites and also bought many courses before I finally built my own windmill. This site is about that journey and you will also find some more general articles about wind power.

Enjoy! and check out the about me page to read more.
