Introducing the Honeywell Wind Turbine
Thank you for your interest in our wind technology.
We’ve turned traditional wind turbines, inside out.
The Honeywell Wind Turbine’s Blade Tip Power System (BTPS) replaces the traditional gear box, shaft and generator of current wind turbine technology. The Honeywell Wind Turbine’s gearless Blade Tip Power System creates a “free wheeling’’ turbine, generating energy from the blade tips (where the speed lies) rather than through a mechanical center gear. By practically eliminating mechanical resistance and drag, the Honeywell Wind Turbine creates significant energy (2000 kWh/yr in class 3, 2752 kWh/yr in class 4 winds at 33') operating in a greater range of wind speeds (2-42 mph/3-68 km/h) than traditional wind turbines. The highest output, lowest cost per kWh installed turbine ever made (in class and size). So powerful, so simple.

The Home Energy Solution - Always Turning, Always Generating Energy.
Why was it necessary to redesign the turbine?
With 90% of North America’s actual wind resources below 9 mph (14.5 km/h) on average, it was essential to develop a technology capable of starting-up in wind speeds as low as 2 mph (3km/h) and remaining operational through 42mph (68km/h). Traditional turbines rarely start turning before 7.5 mph (12 km/h) and shutdown by 29 mph (47 km/h) to protect their mechanical systems. It is this greater capture and conversion of available wind energy that enables the Honeywell Wind Turbine to provide such a meaningful percentage of a home’s energy needs.
The Honeywell Wind Turbine’s Power Blade System creates energy at the blade tips, rather than through a central gear and rotor used in most turbine technology. By eliminating the resistance of a central gear and shaft, significant efficiencies are gained in cost and energy output. The Honeywell Wind Turbine is less expensive to own and operate while generating energy across a broader range of wind speeds (wind classes).
Saving Energy is a breeze with the Honeywell Wind Turbine.
The turbine’s installed cost is approximately 1/2 of the cost of traditional turbines with a lower installed cost per kWh (in class and size) than any turbine on the market. Adding to the value are federal and state rebates covering anywhere from 30% to 100% of the overall cost.
The Honeywell Wind Turbine comes complete with a computerized smart box, inverter and inter connect switch to wire the system into a household panel. The Honeywell Wind Turbine is designed to be installed where the power is being consumed and can produce 2000 kWh/yr in class 3, 2752 kWh/yr in class 4 winds at 33' (height of 33’). The system has a MSRP of $5,995.
Generate energy at the source. Efficiency meets innovation with the Honeywell Wind Turbine.
The Future of Wind Power.
The Honeywell Wind Turbine from WindTronics measures just 6 feet (182 cm) in diameter and weighs 170 lbs (77kg) providing 18 % of an average household’s (DOE) energy needs.
The Honeywell Wind Turbine patented design maximizes efficiency drawing energy from the fast moving blade tips rather than a complex slow center hub. The Blade Tip Power System cuts-in with wind speeds as low as 2 MPH (3km/h), generating energy at a third the cost per kWh of any other Wind turbine (in class and size).

A look inside our wind testing tunnel (note the velocity at 7.5 mph (12 km/h), when most Turbines are just starting-up). The noise heard in the background is the wind tunnel fan, the wind turbine itself is virtually silent. |
