Ginlong Alternative provided by Hurricane Wind Power partnership

Ginlong Alternative Hurricane Wind Power fights Chinese imports

Ginlong Permanent Magnet Alternators have dominated the research and development scene in American Wind Power. Hurricane Wind Power is proud to announce the end of that era with the new series of Air Boss Axial Flux PMA's

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 21, 2012 -
Wind Power company's developers and entrepreneurs in the United States have imported predominately Ginlong permanent magnet  alternators in recent years.  This has seem to become common industry practice within realm of research and development of new horizontal as well as vertical wind turbine air foils. According to Anthony Jones, owner of Hurricane Wind Power, it is commonplace for us to receive calls from developers of new wind power systems in the United States that have invested vast amounts of resources in terms of capital and man hours and come short delivering a viable product due to lack of customer support, inferior products, and being sold improper products for intended applications due to communication barriers with vendors.

As a result Jones stated Hurricane and AERCO have pooled their resources to provide an alternative to importing to the American wind power developer, as well as a solid product for consumers worldwide. The Air Boss generator can be built to a customers specification and data provided that will be utilized to maximize the efficiency of any given airfoil or power input device. This gives  our customers the best chance to be successful in the global marketplace with their inventions and end products.

Jones went on to say that the key piece that has been missing is the customer service element. Barriers and the complexity of communication that must take place between a wind power company or investor and team of engineering technicians plays a huge role. This is where Hurricane and Aerco are making the connection and making things happen in a big way. Anyone can sell a generator and put it in a box and wash there hands of the transaction. The key to building a long term successful company is the service after the sale, something Jones said the Hurricane Aerco partnership has an edge over Ginlong. "Customers do not have to stay up until 3:00 AM to attempt to Skype China. We are there and involved sometimes to the extent it requires boots on the ground.

This past week the company was proud to have dispatched AERCO engineering technician Gary Brown 1500 miles round trip to assist partner Steve LaCasse owner of Intelligent Energy Solutions in Florida to collaborate and assist with assurance of data integrity for submission to the National Research Energy Laboratory for his new high efficiency wind turbine design. The Air Boss line of PMA's are based on time tested Axial Flux generator technology and are currently available in 1.4 and 2.8 KW designs. Plans for expansion to 10 KW in the near future are already underway. The Air Boss line can be seen at  http://www.hurricanewindpower.com

Axial Flux Alternators Hurricane Wind Power Reviews"Air Boss" Generators


Hurricane Wind Power Reviews Wind Power performance and The Axial Flux Permanent Magnet Alternator, PMA, APMA or Generator depending which you prefer. We are not really the uppity type here and will not spill the ink to correct anyone who wants to call it what they will.....The spinny think that makes the power is completely fine with us and that's how we want to keep it. One of my biggest turn offs with the "wind power" business is the constant elitist bantering. We will keep it simple and please check the egos at the door. That includes my own and we are receptive to feedback. Which is why when I have been fortunate enough to work with the folks at AERCO American Energy Research Company we at Hurricane have been receptive to the idea of others and may I say they are some very talented people. They put their heart and sole into bring off their lines a 100 percent quality controlled products that we are happy to partner with to proliferate the Axial Flux Permanent Magnet technology to the public as what we call the "Perfect Storm" in more ways than one at Hurricane. All of the right pieces of the puzzle had to come together and the result is a team that produces a product more efficient, powerful, and reliable than traditional radial designs on the market. In summary just say no to imports, pulleys, chains, gears, and redneck engineering.....no offense we love them to.



In the past few years I have spent countless hours spending time with entrepreneurs developers and airfoil designers who want only one thing. An inventors series PMA that performs superior to the Ginlong and does not have to be ordered from China. They want to know they when they order a product that if the hours of research and development they have put into the project passes their testing that they will be able to bring their dream to fruition. With the " Air Boss"will do just that and it is quite that simple. If a machine will turn 140 RPM and produce 45 ft/lb of torque the the power generated will be 1.4 KW. If you have a Application powerful enough to produce the 90 ft/lb of torque then you have a 2.8 kw machine. That simple ...signed sealed delivered guaranteed MADE IN USA. This is the only the beginning and and we anticipate scaling up to 10 KW within the year. The massive diameter"relative to other units" which lends to a greater speed as the rotor passes the stator coils almost makes this unfair....well  almost
AIR BOSS Axial Flux Permanant Magnet Alternator Generator

On a sad not I have to advise the sonsumers on Hurricane Wind Power...if your Airfoil, VAWT, Wind Turbine, Cabage Shooter, or any other contraption even if conceptualized by Wylie Coyote himself will not product enought power measure in Ft/lb's, Newtons,  ect  to produce 1400 watts.....the Air Boss will not perform a magic trick. 45 Ft lb and 140 RPM or 90 will bring 1.4 and 2.8 KW as previously mentioned...just a reminder here

Other Services Available

INVENTOR SERIES

  • As an additional part of our Inventor Series products and services we now can supply custom air core axial style stator coil windings.
  • These are produced on our semi-automated coil winder ensuring turn count, wire tension and volume consistency. 
  • Coils from 14 gauge to 26 gauge can be manufactured using a customer supplied former (mold required for coil) or one fabricated to customer specifications by the AERCO R&D department.
  • Coils are shipped only after passing several quality assurance tests and are bar coded as a matched set.
  • Individual specifications sheets describing each coil’s measured characteristics are shipped along with your order.
  • To produce quality axial permanent magnet alternators you must start with the most consistently wound and perfectly matched set of windings available.  
All this, at a small set up fee and a low winding labor cost per coil. Why spend hours building a manual winder that virtually prohibits the production consistent windings due to the inability to maintain constant tension over the entire count? 

More to follow on axial technology

Hurricane Wind Power Reviews Power Ratings

Hurricane Wind Power reviews power ratings seeks level playing field

Hurricane Wind Power reviews power ratings seeks level playing field

In the past few years the wind turbine industry, from the commercial side, the "home brew" community do it yourself ethisiasts and the "scammers" have found themselves at odds.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 07, 2012 -
Hurricane Wind Power owner Anthony Jones announced today that after reviewing the state of the wind energy industry power rating that all Hurricane Wind Power products will now report data on all wind turbines and permanent magnet alternators, PMA's or generators in several new and comprehensive formats. In the past few years various groups have created customer confusion and a lack of confidence in purchasing wind power products.

Methods of rating wind power products have existed on a continuum of outright lies to bending the truth in order to make a product look good according to Jones .  The state of wind power performance reporting has become a farce, which Hurricane wishes to distance itself from. Jones spoke of a California based company which rates its wind turbines at 1500 watts but is careful to put in the qualifier that this output was rated at 70 mile per hour winds, "This is ridiculous" the  National Renewable Energy Laboratory and widely respected organizations such as the American Wind Energy Association have clearly stated that the rated wind speed for output  is 11 meters per second  or 24.6 miles per hour.

Jones went on to explain that in the past few years the "do it yourself" movement in wind power often expressed power output represented simply by measuring open voltage multiplied by shorted amps that estimated a power output at a given generator RPM. These methods are outdated and Hurricane is adhering to the standard of the AWEA and NREL with its wind turbines. As well Jones went on to state that instantaneous ratings which can be most easily understood as a "flash" power rating or power that is not sustained  should not be used as a rated power output either. Some companies even on the commercial level as American Wind Energy Association members still advertise instantaneous output ratings as their "rated performance".  PMA's from Hurricane will also carry expected wattage output from  Newton Meters or Foot Lbs torque input from the source or airfoil

In the poor economic state of the nation as well as worldwide Jones expressed the sentiment that while sales may be lost in the short term due to the flashy high watt output ads of some.  He is confident a long term solid business model should be founded upon the principles of openness,  honesty,  trust and consumer confidence.  In uncertain time people must know that the performance for the money or ROI return on investmentmakessense.Visit us at http://www.hurricanewindpower.com ;
