That is an issue faced by many .. especially those with wind turbines for
sure on high towers.
I am lucky enough to have the turbine and batteries housed in the same
shed .. about 6 feet of wire (max) from source to batteries. Then I use
an inverter at that point to send it to my house with 120v AC for about
50 feet using regular nomax (?) out door rated AC type wire you'd find at
any hardware store.
But you can produce 'wild ac' as they call it at the turbine and then
transform to DC to charge at the batteries for sure. I'm not uber sure
how that works but I've read about it. A lot of wind guys have to do
that for sure.

I did have a few beers before posting the fuck off thing, to be sure.
Normally i try not to use that kind of language on here. But the
brilliant thing about this newsgroup is that we are focused on isses
relating to making power for our homes. Thus the name
alt.energy.homepower I don't give a rats ass if someone is a left wing
environmental vegitarian nut or a jesus freak right wing drill baby drill
blow hard as long as they give good information on the subject and are
honest in how they go about contributing .
dig?

Barnum never said that.
