Just out of curiosity, what is it that you are hoping to possibly use these for, looking at the power output graphs, the power generated looks quite small, particularly under normal wind conditions and when compared with solar panels they are also pretty expensive.

I like the discrete design and I can see how people would easily walk past it, not realising what it is, and also subject to the right wind conditions, it will work 24 hrs a day.
