This not very (home) diy but.... I'm in a hobby club which needs 12v batteries charging in the clubhouse for equipment. We've no mains electricity, so use solar panels coupled with solar-suited chargers. With this recent 'nuclear winter' they're not getting charged much so I was wondering about having a wind turbine power source too.
Solar charging isn't something in my breadth of electronics experience, but I have gathered that solar panels and chargers - esp. MPPT - kinda interract with each other for operation/efficiency? So I don't know if a wind turbine can be simply Wire-OR'd into a charger supply, or does it need something intelligent...?
