Our expertise in marine micro wind turbines is second to none….
- We have sold over 100,000 of our turbines worldwide, mostly to sailboat owners.
- We have been developing and manufacturing the Rutlands in the UK for over 35 years.
- We have led the field in voltage regulator technology with products that combine wind and solar charging, do multi-stage charging and reduce running time of the turbine when the batteries are full.
- We have over 25 years experience of solar panel applications too and usually recommend a hybrid wind/solar charging system for long distance cruising.
What types of Rutland Windchargers can be used?
Rutland 914i – Generates wind power for Caravans, Campers, Motorhomes
Motorhomes with high energy demands the Rutland 914i will prove a powerful addition to the charging regime on board.
