Comments:Craig Fau gave me your site. Like you I am off grid and begun to talk to Craig about wind along side of solar. I am making an assumption that in our bad weather days the probably of wind is high. So I am beginning my quest. Is the wind turbin very loud? I am trying to determine a location. Eric
