Eclectic D400 wind generators:
The D400 is a direct-drive wind generator, designed for a variety of marine, rooftop or terrestrial applications.
"The most powerfull turbine at low speed" according to tests made by Practical Boat Owner
It is very quiet and vibration-free in operation, qualities that are of paramount importance for any wind generator operating in close proximity to people.
The D400 features a powerful 3-phase alternator, and computer-designed rotor blades optimised for low speed, user-friendly operation.
This innovative machine is extremely efficient in low wind speeds, yet is capable of sustained high power outputs of up to 500 watts in higher winds.
It is small and light enough to be easily attached to most building or boat structures. Given average wind speeds at the site of around 12 mph, one D400 StealthGen could realistically provide 15 - 20% of the average annual electricity requirement.

Distinctive and elegant in design, the D400 is superbly engineered for long, trouble-free service, and is available in either 12 or 24 volt variant.

Inexpensive to purchase and virtually silent in operation, once installed the D400 is no more conspicuous than a satellite dish.
The D400 is available in white, or Black.

NOTE: These figures are representative of performance at sea level when operating in an open, turbulence-free site.

Regulators for your Eclectic turbines:
Regulus Diversion load controller for 12V versions:
We designed and build our own turbine regulator, battery temperature sensor, resistors in a ventilated enclosure and combined brake switch/ system status monitor.

(cut front panel to show inside)

Diversion load controller for 24V version:
We recommend that your turbine is installed together with a 6TB24 controler to prevent battery damage through overcharging.

Optional Ventilated box with integrated or remote stop switch:
We can Install the 6TB charge controller and resistors in our enclosure for a neet and simple installation. You can stop the generator with our stop switch/breaker, in the box or remote.

Features:
• Anodized Aluminum ventilated box
• Include stop switch in or remote
• Small size 17" x 10" x 3", 43 cm x 20,5 cm x 7,8 cm
• All marine grade hardware
