Wind power is much better than solar as far as price goes. A 400 watt wind generator at Northern Tool is $500. 400 watts of solar cells are $2160. This price does not include, the $100 storage battery, the $35 inverter or 10% sales tax.
Looking at the wind mill wind speed chart it shows minumum wind speed is 3 meters per second. At 6.5 m/s the wind mill produces 100 watts. At 11 m/s it produces 400 watts. At 12.5 m/s it produces 500 watts. Here in TN the wind is gusty all the time it is impossible to fly a kite here. Wind will be dead calm for 30 seconds then 12 mph for 30 seconds, then 3 mph for 30 sec, then 8 mph for 30 sec, then dead calm again. I am not sure a wind generator is practical for an area where the wind is gusty all the time. Average wind speed is about 4.6 mph so that means wind mill average power is 50 watts.
3 m/s = 6.7 mph = 0 watts
6.5 m/s = 14.6 mph = 100 watts
11 m/s = 24.7 mph = 400 watts
12.5 m/s = 28 mph = 500 watts
The old farm water pumping wind mills would operate in a 2 mph wind.

Hay, I can get 50 watts with 3 solar cells that is a lot cheaper than a wind mill that produces an average of 50 watts.
I expect one of these days if a lot of people start buying these to save money on the electric bill the Government will want them to pay Tax on the money they are no longer spending on their electric bill.
