AEROMAX Corp. Announces Next Generation of Wind Turbine for Home Power; New LAKOTA is Quieter, More Economical and More Efficient.Business Editors/Energy Writers PRESCOTT VALLEY, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 31, 2001 AEROMAX Corp. Tuesday introduced and is now shipping a new Land Wind Turbine Generator, the AEROMAG LAKOTA. The 900W battery charging wind turbine for home, village and station power applications employs new carbon fiber blade technology that significantly improves power output at a greatly reduced cost. "This system is now available for small and large users at a very reasonable price point," said Lexington Bartlett, president and chief executive officer of AEROMAX. "The LAKOTA provides quieter, more efficient and more economical operations than have ever been available on the market before." AEROMAG LAKOTAs are outfitted with Stealth stealth Any military technology intended to make vehicles or missiles nearly invisible to enemy radar or other electronic detection. Research in antidetection technology began soon after radar was invented. Acoustic(TM) uni-directional carbon fiber blades. Recent AEROMAG blade technology advancements and breakthroughs have significantly reduced the cost of the LAKOTA wind turbine generator. Competitive testing results show conventional wind turbines are 25 percent to 164 percent higher priced from a cost per watt perspective at rated power (turbine vs. turbine). At LAKOTA's peak power rating of 1400 watts, the difference is 78 percent to 252 percent. The new Stealth Acoustic uni-directional carbon fiber blades can be retrofitted on existing turbines. One such style, of which there are over 3,000 in operation, could increase electrical output by up to 300 watts just by upgrading the wood-bladed wind turbine generator with the new Stealth Acoustic blades. The LAKOTA will be available in 12, 24 and 48 Volt configurations and will now be available at USD USD In currencies, this is the abbreviation for the U.S. Dollar. Notes: The currency market, also known as the Foreign Exchange market, is the largest financial market in the world, with a daily average volume of over US $1 trillion. $1,069. Other voltages, such as 96 or 180 Volts will be available upon request. The AEROMAG LAKOTA Marine will also be available soon as a full Marine version for the boat and coastal industry. It will utilize an all stainless steel stainless steel: see steel. stainless steel Any of a family of alloy steels usually containing 10–30% chromium. The presence of chromium, together with low carbon content, gives remarkable resistance to corrosion and heat. hub drive and tail boom components combined with internal silicon marine wiring and superior weatherproof seals. The Marine version is also offered with a smaller diameter rotor rotor: see generator; motor, electric. . About AEROMAX AEROMAX is the exclusive distributor of the AEROMAG (a sister corporation) advanced small wind turbine systems. Small wind turbines are widely used in home and village power, wind and solar hybrid systems A hybrid system is a dynamic system that exhibits both continuous and discrete dynamic behavior — a system that can both flow (described by a differential equation) and jump (described by a difference equation). that enable a greatly reduced cost of energy and a substantial advance in the lessening of dependence on fossil fuels fossil fuel: see energy, sources of; fuel. fossil fuel Any of a class of materials of biologic origin occurring within the Earth's crust that can be used as a source of energy. Fossil fuels include coal, petroleum, and natural gas. . Further, the long-range benefits provided by advanced wind turbine technology are extremely beneficial in offsetting the current negative impacts on biodiversity biodiversity: see biological diversity. biodiversity Quantity of plant and animal species found in a given environment. Sometimes habitat diversity (the variety of places where organisms live) and genetic diversity (the variety of traits expressed due to fuel wood gathering that has prompted rapid deforestation deforestation Process of clearing forests. Rates of deforestation are particularly high in the tropics, where the poor quality of the soil has led to the practice of routine clear-cutting to make new soil available for agricultural use. in developing countries.
