Introduction
Over the last few decades renewable energy has started to gain its ground. Of all the different kinds of alternative energy sources available, the use of wind power has been growing steadily. However, wind turbines that are available for homeowners in the market today are mostly designed (or copied) a decade ago and although they work, most have mechanical flaws that were neglected since their debut and there is a lot of room for improvements. With that in mind, we have redesigned a new wind turbine - the Apollo. Built-in with a stronger alternator for higher power output, Anti-vibration system to increase power efficiency, and the ability to be customized and upgraded for the future.

What is the difference in an
Apollo
Wind Turbine?
GreenergyStar's Apollo Wind Turbine is the most mechanically advanced generator in the market today. It features many upgrades that solves performance issues that our competitors struggle with. It is designed to work with other
GreenergyStar branded
products such as the SolarWind Hybrid RX charge controller and grid tie inverters to better utilize the renewable energy generated. The following list will summarize its major features:

- Incorporates highly efficient, true airfoil
- Quiet performance with minimal vibration
- Can generate 800 watts or more depending on PMA efficiency
- Manufactured using a precision injection molding process that produces blades of exceptional consistency
- Made with new thermoplastic to increase durability
- Smoother and more durable than any blades you can find in the market
- Adjustable blade degree with included degree adjusters / shims (see picture below)
- High resistance to bending (over 150 degrees)
What is Nylon 6.6?
Nylon is a man made product. On the man made side, you will see primarily three types of thermoplastic. These are polyester, polypropylene, and nylon. Of the three types, nylon is by far the better choice.
Nylon is extremely versatile in its applications. It is highly resistant to
abrasion
and has excellent
resilience
.
Within nylon, there are two groups:
nylon 6
and
nylon 6.6
. Nylon 6.6 is the
premium thermoplastic
. It is the thermoplastic that is most often specified by professional architects and designers because it provides the
flexural strength,
low-temperature toughness, UV Resistance
and is the most
resilient
. Nylon 6.6 performs well in many applications such as wind turbine blades, automotive parts, and other fields that get a lot of wear and tear. Nylon 6.6 has additional molecules that give extra strength and the resilience compared to nylon 6. If you still have no idea what Nylon 6.6 is, do a search on google.

Pros
-
20mm
rotor thickness, 66% more compare to competitor's
- Stronger Magnetic flux due to thicker rotor, and thus, more Power
- Evenly spread magnets decrease magnetic drag
- 6 balanced hole to reduce weight
- Reduce forces required to start rotor due to less reciprocation mass
- Brushless
Permanent Magnet Alternator
Cons
- only 12mm in rotor thickness and thus weaker magnetic flux
- Magnets are not evenly spread out (ie: screw at top)
- No weight reduction = harder start up

Horizontal
Apollo
Competitor's
Pros
-
Dual Metal ball bearing
located
at
front
and
rear
of rotor
- 5.5cm of stabilizing distance to prevent
rotor and blades from vibrating
- No vibration = Increase in efficiency
- Reduction in noise output
Cons
- 2 bearings placed side by side together
- Stabilizing distance effectively
shorten to 2cm (63% reduction)
- Vibration = Energy wasted
- Wasted energy gets converted to Noise and Heat
Vertical
Apollo
Competitor's
Pros
-
Dual Metal ball bearing
to prevent vertical vibration
- Yaw shaft diameter: 40mm
- 3cm of stabilizing distance with 2 bearings
- No vibration = Increase in efficiency
- Reduction in noise output
- One piece design Yaw body provides more stability
Cons
- Single bearings will not eliminate vertical vibration
- Yaw shaft diameter: 35mm
- Stabilizing distance effectively shorten to 1.4cm with one bearing (53% reduction)
- Vibration will cause bearing to grind on yaw shaft and create a bigger play, which in turn will cause more vibration in a never ending cycle
- 2 pieces design Yaw body is less stable
III. Anti-Leak System
Apollo
Competitor's
Pros
- Unlike rubber, PVC Rings are much more durable will not harden and crack and cause leaks
- Bearing are covered and will not rust / leak
Cons
- Rubber ring will harden after approximately 1 year of use and will start cracking and leaking
- Bearing are exposed and will rust / leak

WARNING !!!
Rotating blades present the most serious mechanical hazard. The blades may be moving at velocities over 275 miles per hour (440 km/hr). At this speed, the tip of a blade is nearly invisible and can cause serious injury. Under no circumstances should you install the turbine where a
person could come in contact with moving rotor blades.
The installer of these blades is solely responsible for the use or misuse of these blades. We assume no liability for ANY injuries caused by these products.
Warranty:
We will warrant this unit against any manufacture defects or workmanship for 6 months from the date of purchase. This limited warranty specifically excludes damage caused by
improper installation, accident, misuse
,
abuse
,
improper
storage
, or
any unauthorized disassembly, repair, or modification
.This warranty is not transferable. In the event of a claim against this warranty, the seller's obligation, and the claimant's sole remedy, shall be replacement of the product, repair, or refund of the original purchase price excluding any shipping and handling fees.
