Question for those who report working windmills for their RV. Were these permanent setups?

The biggest concern for wind power is the size of the equipment for use with an RV. Will it be portable enough for a mobile RV, otherwise it's good for a fulltimer that doesn't move around? And if it's small for portability will it be strong enough to be effective? Best of all, how can it be used in conjunction with the other power systems, since for example, gennys or solar aren't available at night.

The marine sources sound like a good place to look.

Thinking ahead, I can hardly wait for Lasater's geothermal alternative power plans! Now that's 100% flexibility!
