SMARTWIND 400 W vertical-axis wind turbine

The SMARTWIND 400 W is the lower-power SMARTWIND: 200 W rated and 400 W maximum power, with a lower start-up wind speed of 1.2 m/s (the SMARTWIND 500 W: 300 W, 500 W and 1.6 m/s). It is a small vertical-axis wind turbine with a 6-blade rotor, noise below 40 dB, for 12/24 V DC battery systems. Choose it if starting in lighter wind matters more than extra power.

Technical specifications

How the SMARTWIND 400 W differs from the SMARTWIND 500 W

Both models have a 6-blade rotor, the same 70 × 70 × 120 cm size, 10 kg weight, noise below 40 dB and a 2-year warranty; only three parameters differ.

Take the 400 W if it matters that the turbine starts at 1.2 m/s and 200 W of rated power is enough. If you need 300 W rated, look at the SMARTWIND 500 W.

In both cases the energy actually produced depends on the wind speed at your location.

What is the SMARTWIND 400 W used for?

The SMARTWIND 400 W suits camping, tool sheds and houseboats, and any place where it is hard to connect to the national grid.

Wind turbine for 12 V and 24 V battery systems

The SMARTWIND 400 W is designed for 12/24 V DC battery systems, and its output is three-phase AC up to 24 V. It can be combined with a Stand Alone or Grid Connected inverter system. We choose the inverter pairing to suit your site.

How much power does a 400 W wind turbine produce?

The SMARTWIND 400 W has a maximum power of 400 W and a rated power of 200 W, with a start-up wind speed of 1.2 m/s. The energy actually produced depends on the wind speed at your location, so 400 W is an upper limit, not a constant output.

Small wind turbine for home: what wind must the mast withstand?

With a wind turbine, power is not the only thing that matters; the mast does too. According to the Lithuanian Hydrometeorological Service:

“The highest wind speed recorded in Lithuania’s observation history was 40 m/s.”
