Default wind generators

I don't know much about these except the
newer AirX has a brake for high speed that
limits it's efficiency compared to older one.
I'm told it is quieter.

In the tradewinds, everyone has a wind generator.
They are cheap work well in steady conditions.

My choice would be a combination of solar panels,
a wind generator, and one other source such as an
alternator on an inboard diesel. It's wise to have two
ways to charge your batteries other than the engine.

I would be very grateful for opinions and experiences with the newer
wind generators such as Marine AirX, Aero6gen, KISS, Ampair. TIA.
