THE BOOK PRETTY GOOD...THE AUTHOR...NOT SO MUCH
I wasn't for sure if the author wanted me to build a wind turbine or if he was just bragging about how smart he was, how dumb I was and why I evan decided to read a book on building wind turbines.

POOR ENGINEERING -- HIGH RISK
The DanB "heavy duty" 48V stator from his web site says "This stator is wound with #15 gage wire. It has 9 coils and each coil has 105 turns in it. [...] The coils are wired in 3 phase star configuration [...] In our tests we believe this stator will be about 50% efficient at 1000 Watts.

BETTER THAN EXPECTED, BUT NOT PERFECT.
First I must say, the "don't go there" comment was written in the forward of the book, which was not written by the author(s).
This book does a very good job of teaching the reader just about every aspect concerning Wind related RE subjects ( plus how to build a single design ).
