A second alternator makes a ton more sense as an easy solution.
That's kind of a bummer about a stationary portable turbine.
Ah, I see there was a bit of confusion with the idea, that's my bad. I was thinking about the low profile turbines that rotate horizontally (so that's would be a vertical shaft). Adding a maximum of 12 - 18 inches to the roof, instead of 4 feet.
Basically, I was just trying to be able to generate consistent power, consistently. Recharging the batteries while I'm on the road. Most of the smaller turbines I was looking at, were the equivalent of four of more standard 100W solar panels. While taking up a ton less roof-top real estate.
