Solar and Wind
Wind Power
Untill the Halcion Models become available, and affordable... there's a lot to be said for verticle wind tower designs, for home use.
Can read about their future Here
While all turbines for indivitual home use are really only meant to be used in conjuction with another system like solar, they are great for that constant trickle of power.
Edy's top affordable pic is...
A slightly more costly nodel is......
The NINILADY
More powerful than the earlier model and while it may be more expensive, you're getting greater power. It also has an auto-braking system that shuts off when the wind speed is too high, which can help protect your turbine in extreme weather conditions.
If you're set on a traditional horizontal design, then check out the Primus.
But should be noted that a horizontal axis, turbines are harder on the aerial wildlife and you'd probably need a honkin' big one with some kind of permit to generate much power :)
No matter which wind turbine model you decide to go with, make sure it has a warranty and if possible, try to buy from an accredited seller so that your purchase is covered. 🎉🎉🎉
I water is your kinetic preference, then check out this little micro-hydro turbine
We'll do a more in depth review of water tubies in the future, but that's a good one to start with.
Happy Generating!
They kinda go together.

Finanly, Batteries,... likely your
greatest expense. Lithium Ion, for now,
is probably your best option.
Biolite Energy is a trusted suplier.
But the future technology of energy
storade is intreging.
From tesla to plastics to....
Have a listen to THIS.
The future of batteries is bright.
Of coarse there's Ground Power Generation
and Magnet Motors and other options to think about.
