I am thinking that the easiest way for me to pole mount this turbine would be to purchase the Sunforce 45455 Wind Generator 30' Tower Kit sold here on amazon. How much will I need to do to get this turbine to mount on this tower. This picture shows a...

the easiest way to get power out of this unit is simple. send it back or do not buy it. they are junk. go ahead and buy a skymax windturbine and the Missouri wind and solar roof mount. trust me you will be glad you did.

Well the post comes in two parts that screw together, but I think it would depend on the wind where you live. The pole is about, I guess an 1/2" I think, I guess it could be done. The top is made very well.

I live at Kodiak Alaska.I didnt get a permit for mine.It depends on how big your lot is.And if you are inside city limits. I put 5 gallon buckets in the ground flush f With the surface.Then i put my anchors in and concreted them in. Same with the tower. I filled tower bucket up to top and put thee tower plate on top. Let it harden up a week. Then iput it up..Im the only one here with wind and solar power. . A cpl years before i boight a power hub pluss. The wind turbin goes right in to its own hook up in the solar generator.Hope this helps. Any more questions. .....kevin907@hotmail.com

Johnna, a good pole should be and this is m5ot one i would recommend installing on any surface. There are better ones out there for less hassle and worry-free installation. This doesn't even come instructions. Hope this helps. Keara

We live in Miami and have fairly windy days in the summer with heavy rain. We have installed our canopy using aircraft cable to trees at the perimeter of our yard, tightened up with turnbuckles and removable using lockable steel caribiners at the canopy corners. We just didn't want the look of giant poles, so our canopy looks more like a floating sail overhead. :-) Also, if you use a post you actually need to sink the poles deeper than 3 feet...the rule of thumb is 1/3 below ground, 2/3 above. So for a sail mounted 8' high, you would need a 12' pole with 4' buried. Steel pipe 3.5-4" is recommended, especially for bigger sails in a windy area.

I am not sure if you are just putting this up for an event or keeping it up for an extended period of time. If it is just for an event, then I would use sand bags tied to the bottom of each of the poles. I live in Vancouver, Wa near the Gorge and we get High winds about 4 to 5 times during the year, and my canopy is set up year round and acts as another room off my patio, and we have the canopy bolted to the house in several places on one side of the canopy and several steal stakes in the ground on the other side where we taped the poles to the stakes. It has servived 2 springs one summer, and a winter. I am very happy with this one, and over the years we have tried several other canopies. Hope the sand bag idea is helpful, dress them up if this is for an important event. 20 lbs per pole is my suggestion. GOOD-LUCK !!!!

You need to find the right transformer for it and remember every piece that you use, you'll need a transformer. You'll need mounting brackets all so.

U-bolts are a good method. You also might want to drill a hole thru poles both and insert a long, locking bolt w/nut to avoid minor movement in windy conditions.

It is a little tricky. It is most easily performed with the pole completely collapsed. I screw the base on from the bottom, holding the pole above with the other hand. Getting the threads to match up may take several attempts. I can usually get it on no problem, although there have been a few occasions where i timed out on my frustration limit and had to come back to it O.o My girlfriend has much difficulty attaching it. As for mine, there is no error in manufacture, rather, just a tricky connection. Assuming your threads have been properly machined, you should be able to get it with some practice.

doodah.., i also meant to ask if u were goin to mount this antenna on a rotor or not ?? cuz if u do buy a rotor then u'll need rotor wire/cable & if u go to buy the rotor cable, etc., the rotor cable is usually sold seperately from the rotor - or atleast it was when i bought my cable - the rotor cable which connects from the rotor & then runs down the pole along with ur coax or twin-lead antenna wire - will run into ur house & connect to the rotor control box.., etc. " that wire usually sells for $20-$25 plus tax at radio shack & is really the same thing 3 or 4 lead telephone wire and the only real dffrence is that the rotor wire say radio shack.., ebay or here on amazon even is the thickness of the insulation around the wire " & u can buy a 100ft. roll of telephone wire which is color coded & use in-place of that rotar wire.., the connections on my rotor are numbered : 1, 2, & 3 etc. & i just ran the red wire to #1 on both the rotor itself & to the control box.., yellow for #2.., green for #3 etc. . & it worked perfectly & i saved myself $16 by not buying any rotor wire.., just a thought - but u do whats best for u.. & again - good luck .. - coffeebean

You have to buy mounting hardware separately because there are many different ways people will need to mount it. Some poles have a "foot" designed to attach to a roof, others are designed for attaching to the side of a wall. Other buyers may have an exiting old-school antenna on their roof and can just attach it directly to the same pole that that uses.

They make kit to hook the generator into your power system for your house. If you are not experienced, then have an electrician do it. You could cause a lot of damage if you tried it yourself.

Hey there. I do not work for this company, but I know them to be decent people (Debbie and John). They produce a wind turbine not far from Oklahoma - I think they bought a helicopter factory in Texas and converted it to their needs. I'm sure they will be glad to answer your questions even if you don't end up buying anything from them. They'll explain all about wind tables, what you can expect from a given configuration, and they may even have answers on local building codes that govern such installations. You can find them at tangarie.comFeel free to tell them Randy sent you their way.Good luck! Hey there. I do not work for this company, but I know them to be decent people (Debbie and John).

I hung it from my pole system that is out in the open. It also does well on shepherds' crooks off a deck or similar. Try to keep it about 5 feet off the ground.

Thanks for watching our videos! Our wind turbines include diagrams and instructions for putting it together. We do sell a limited amount of our products here in our Amazon store, though not everything we offer.

The unit does not come with mounting screws. I used 2" screws into deck wood. The light, which swivels slightly, may be pole mountable, however the solar unit would have to be jerri-rigged to be attached to a pole as it has no screw holes.
