It was brought to my attention by Bergey they had a batch of stators made for the XL1 that where wound wrong. They are off by a bunch so it is easy to figure out of you have this issue. The symptoms will be fast spinning turbine to the point of fluttering a lot and very low output. Maybe 50-100 watts. Basically if the turbine seems very low on output power and you have never seen more than 3-400 watts than you may have this stator. The Batch of stators is the last bunch to go out.

If you think you have this issue feel free to call me here at Midnite and I can help figure out if you do truly have this issue. If you have a 24 volt battery bank bergey has supplied me a curve to fix the issue. If you have a 48 volt battery Bergey will work with you for the Stator swap.
