what wind turbines do you own?

[elwood]

I am looking to generate my own power through a combo of solar and wind. I am researching turbines and was wondering what brands people have and what they think of them. I found this one :

Cut your electricity bills: wind is free, so once you've paid for the initial installation your electricity costs will be reduced.
Get paid for what you generate: through Feed-in-Tariffs, you get paid for the electricity you generate even if you use it. What you don't use, you can export to the local grid - and get paid for that too.
Cut your carbon footprint: wind electricity is green, renewable energy and doesn't release any harmful carbon dioxide or other pollutants.
Store electricity for a calm day: if your home isn't connected to the national grid you can store excess electricity in batteries and use it when there is no wind.
