FAQs

We specialise in micro wind turbines for use in marine applications and off grid systems.

Among the smallest of these is the Rutland 504 that has a rotor diameter of just 51 cm and has a maximum power output of 80W. This makes it perfect for trickle charging small battery systems on board boats.

The wind turbines increase in power up to the Rutland 1200 and AIR X Wind Turbines which have a max power output of 400-500W. They are ideally suited for applications requiring a more substantial amount of renewable power such as CCTV, telecoms and commercial applications.

There are several things you need to consider in order to pick the right wind turbine for your specific boat and power needs. To help our customers choose wisely, we've produced a free guide on marine wind turbines that outlines what you should look for and gives a helpful overview of the leading turbines available.

Yes, Eco Power Shop sells a wide range of wind turbine spare parts for the wind turbine brands we sell, including Air and Leading Edge. If you can’t see a part you need on our website, please just get in touch as we’ll probably have it. 

If you’d prefer a hassle-free way to maintain or repair your turbine then we also offer a repair and maintenance service for Air wind turbines.

LED stands for Light Emitting Diode and LEDs are now widely used in modern, energy-efficient lighting. This is because LED lighting offers many benefits including:

• Saving money on your lighting bill as LEDs are much more efficient at converting electricity into light than other light sources such as halogens.
• Saving money on replacement lights or bulbs as LEDs are long lasting (usually with a lifetime of a minimum of 15000 hours). In addition, LED lighting products usually come with a warranty to give you extra peace of mind about how long your LED light will last.
• Unlike the average CFL bulb, LEDs instantly switch on with full brightness.
• LEDs are safe as they are free of toxic chemicals such as mercury that many fluorescent bulbs contain.
• LED bulbs are available in a huge variety of shapes, styles, cap fittings and colour temperatures. Many are fully dimmable.

Very! We offer our own range of ECO light bulbs to fit your existing light fittings. These bulbs represent the latest in LED light bulb technology, ranging from modern bulbs to vintage-style LED filament bulbs, all being energy efficient. This makes it super easy to switch to low energy LED technology today with no need for an electrician.
