Default Air-X

Hi Bob,

We use the Air-X at a few of our remote Microwave repeater sites to suppliment solar power on non-sunny days. So far they have been fairly good. But remember these sites are generally mountain top sites and get some very strong prolonged winds. We generally have to send one in each year per site to get repaired. We keep a spare per site just for that reason. They are all the 48 volt versions. Its usually the bearings. They do need a good wind to do their job so if your just in a breezy location they probably won't make ya happy. I'd stick with solar collectors. I need to look at the Air-Breeze but its about half the output.
