What kind of wind gen does Skip have? Or what kind of winds is he
normally in to get 15-25 Amps?


Hi, Rick,

KISSenergy.com...

US distributor is Hotwire enterprises. They have a wealth of info on
their site svhotwire.com.

This is very specifically designed for the Caribbean environment;
doesn't start ramping up until about 10k and hits close to30A at about
25k...

On the last day before we started tacking all the time, it was putting
out 20, and the solar 25, in clear skies, moderate wind.


Hi Skip,

Looks like the KISS puts out about twice as much as my Air Marine
about 10-15 kts and a fourth more about 18-25 kts. I'll stick with it,
though, since I have it and my previous one was reliable for several
years of cruising.

ENJOY Maine!!!!

Rick
