I have to charge a 12V 7AH battery using a wind turbine. For this purpose what kind of battery should I employ?

Pardon my mistake. It was a typo error. Actually I was asking regarding the type of generator I should buy for charging 12V 7amp. I am going to connect three blades which are to be used as wind turbine blades. The generator should generate electricity when the blades are rotated.phinds said:First you ask what kind of generator to get and then you ask what kind of battery to get. Please make up your mind what your question is.
What do you mean by that? Do you already have a generator (Alternator)? What is its design rotation speed and will your blades be matched to that? The pitch and length of the blades will be fairly critical if your total supply of charge (Ah) is marginal for your requirements. Small turbines often have multiple blades.Manoj Sahu said:I am going to connect three blades which are to be used as wind turbine blades.

The generator should be matched to the turbine. So first you need to determine how much rotational power your turbine can generate to spin a generator.Manoj Sahu said:Actually I was asking regarding the type of generator I should buy for charging 12V 7amp.

It strikes (from your comments) me that you don't seem to have a lot of technical knowhow in this field. Wind turbine design is difficult and, unless you live on top of a windy hill, you will need to get things just right if you want this system to work. You would be well advised to buy a commercial unit unless you are just doing this for fun. Turbines, alternators, charge controllers and batteries are all specialist items. If they are not all matched to each other, you can get very poor (or disastrous) performance.Manoj Sahu said:Pardon my mistake. It was a typo error.

The best type of generator for charging a 12V battery is a portable gasoline generator. These generators are compact, easy to use, and produce enough power to charge a 12V battery efficiently.
The wattage needed to charge a 12V battery will vary depending on the size and type of battery. Generally, a generator with at least 1000-2000 watts will be sufficient for charging a 12V battery.
Yes, a solar generator can be used to charge a 12V battery. However, it may take longer to charge the battery compared to a gasoline generator, and the amount of power generated will depend on the strength of the sunlight.
When choosing a generator for charging a 12V battery, look for features such as a built-in voltage regulator, low oil shutdown, and a dedicated 12V battery charging port. These features will ensure safe and efficient charging of your battery.
The charging time will depend on the size and type of battery, as well as the wattage of the generator. On average, a 12V battery can be charged within 4-8 hours with a 1000-2000 watt generator.
