"I do not normally write reviews of companies or products but, in this case, I was so overjoyed with the customer service I received from Windy Nation that I decided that I “owed” them this review. In late August of 2012 I was preparing to take my RV into the Canadian back country for an extended off grid camping trip. After doing some research on the internet, I figured out that I was going to need some solar panels to keep my RV batteries charged. I did a lot of research online to find a company with reasonable prices for solar panels and the accessories, which led me to windynation.com
I called Windy Nation and was able to speak to a gentleman name Al. He explained to me how figure out the power consumption (Watt hours) that I was going to be using to power my stuff (lights, TV, computer, etc). He was not pushy at all. Nothing like your typical sales guy who simply wants your money! He told me to call back once I figured out the approximate Watt hours I would use in a day and that he would then craft a solar system for my RV.
Al designed a 300 Watt solar system for my 24 volt RV battery bank. The system included everything. Solar panels, mounting brackets, solar cable, charge controller and fuses. I did not need to buy anything else from any other company. That really made it easy and convenient.
After I received my solar system, I still had several questions about the installation and windynation continued to provide excellent customer support via e-mail and over the phone.
Like I said, I almost NEVER write product reviews but I was so impressed with Windy Nation’s customer service that I felt like I had to write this. Thanks WindyNation (Especially Al …. You were great!)

"I Purchased a Windtura 500 Starter Kit and a few other assorted products from http://www.Windynation.com and I'm very pleased with the quality of the product and the excellent service. They have a nice forum for follow-up questions and excellent technical advice. They have been very helpful and quick to respond to any of my questions or comments.
This is a very solidly built, well made wind turbine. Materials used are Stainless Steel for shaft and end casings and main housing is high grade aluminum. Sealed bearings, N42 neodymium magnets and 14 gauge stator wire make this a very good choice for low to medium wind speeds in a harsh environment. The heavy duty aluminum blades and rotor are precision cut (either laser or water jet, not sure) and are a great match for the Windtura 500 Permanent Magnet Alternator (PMA). These turbines are highly superior to any of the "car alternator" types and produce very impressive "real world" results at realistic RPMs ... very unlike the wild claims of many other manufacturers of small wind turbines which only produce good results when run at unrealistic, very high RPMs.
I'm impressed with both the well made products at Windynation and the excellent ongoing service they provide. I really like the way they stand behind their products and have lots of "real world" testing with realistic results. I'm glad I purchased these products from Windynation and will continue to shop there. I highly recommend them.
Sincerely,
