Another pretty turbine

Mariah home turbine Mariah Power Inc. has developed a 1kw, 30 foot tall home turbine that cuts in at 4 meters/second (9 mph) and is a simple appliance. You supply the concrete foundation and the appliance does the rest. If you live in a windy spot, this could be just the ticket.

And for you fashion conscious power users, it’s available in multiple colors, white, blue, green, red, and clear. At $4,000 for the appliance, it’s in a competitive price range and with its design, you’re not likely to get complaints from your neighbors…

Tip of the hat to MetaEfficient for uncovering this product.
