multiple turbines to a single classic

[mahendra]

hi quick question can i  hook up two wind turbines of the same model and size to a classic(let say two kestrel e160i)

In theory you could parallel 2 turbines to a single controller as long as all amperage limits etc where obeyed. In reality I find 2 identical turbines in very close proximity still do not run identical so I would say do not plan on full power from both. I would say plan on a 20-25% hit do to the paralleling. I have no scientific data to back that up just my ever so slight observations of seemingly identical turbines within say 300ft of each other.

thanks ryan just wanted to make sure before i do something dumb.as i said before i am trying to expand my system by adding wind .i am just trying to spend my money wisely and at the same time try not to discard what i already have,just trying to give them purpose.So i am just speculating if to get the air 40 i already have since it is inadequate or add another one .
fyi scientific info does not always back stuff up real world situations are always is so don't feel bad.
