Sometimes there is a power outage there and there. Generally it happens when there is a combination of high wind speed and snow. Thus, wind is generally considered harmful by electricians, although you know that it can be used to produce electricity. What you do not know, however, is that you can make your own wind turbine out of a few pieces of wood and metal.

Even more interesting, you can find a four page guide explaining how to do that on Otherpower website, here. This wind turbine has very good performance as it can easily produce 2kW, and up to 3,8kW in fast wind speeds.

You have no excuse to miss any new DIY directory post as of now as you can produce your own electricity for your computer !
