HRSi 913 Wind Turbine Regulator

The HRSi charge regulator offers the latest technology for wind/solar hybrid voltage. The regulator brings together a Rutland wind turbine voltage regulator with an input for up to 160Watts of solar panels in an easy to install single device. Appropriate charge levels are delivered by the multi-stage charge control to provide maximum battery power which is retained and remains float charged.

As peak voltages are reached the PWM regulation kicks in and tapers the input charge from the wind turbine using the latest programmable microcontrollers, this protects the battery from overcharging. As the battery discharges the wind turbine responds by increasing speed to deliver more power. LED indicators keep you informed about battery voltage levels and charging status, there is also a manual shutdown option which allows you to stop the wind charger from delivery power to the battery if required.

Another great feature of the HRSi wind turbine regulator is that temperature compensation automatically adjusts the settings of the regulator to take account of varying temperatures thus ensuring maximum charging efficiency in all conditions. The HRSi regulator is ideally suited to interconnect all the components for use with either your Rutland 913 or Rutland FM910-3 wind turbine systems.

pleased with it overall but found that the terminals were very small and too close together.

Product uses latest technology , however with hindsight I think I would have preferred to know what the unit is actually producing i.e. a volt/amps. Two minor points, It would be worth mentioning on the instruction to connect wires 'before' affixing to the bulkhead (because of rather deep inaccessible screw holes). Two fixing screws included would not go amiss bearing in mind the price.
