Why all caps? It's hard to read. Is your keyboard broken? 2. I've watched a bunch of your vidoes. Thanks for posting all the wonderful experiments. But, where is the science, as your name implies? I don't see any data being collected. I don't see any calculations on power or efficiency. In this video she said the vertical axis windmill is running under no load in a slight breeze. So what?? What's that good for?? Put a load on something and make some calculations. Two things:

I have been trying to get it to work as a electrical generator, however, I don't get a charge out of with the cylinder spinning. Would anyone know if it's just easier to mount the fan on to an old car alternator? I have a blower fan attached to a 1/4 hp,1.2amp motor.
