Wind generators for the home. Anyone try this?

Was thinking of this after seeing a house near where I live with a bunch of solar panels. Amazon has the available for several hundred dollars. Also heard it's possible to DIY.

Anyone try this? How has it worked out? Any noticeable reduction in your power bills?

They've had em on sailboats for decades. I don't know how many watts they put out but we're talking low hundreds id bet.

There are lots of plans for DIY wind turbines. I want to build a vertical axis turbine for fun.
