Leading Edge Turbines Ltd products

The LE-450 is the most powerful small wind turbine with a 1m rotor, able to provide meaningful power levels at everyday wind speeds of 5-8m/s (11-18mph), yet is tough enough to withstand winds of up to 40mph. The LE-450 is a quiet, powerful and lightweight 450W wind turbine for battery charging applications. Fully optimised for marine conditions, the LE-450 is ideal for supplementing the power supply on-board a sailboat or yacht and provide energy when solar PV panels are unable to operate effectively – during Winter or overnight. Manufactured in the UK, the LE-450 wind turbine is extremely easy to integrate with solar panels to create small scale off-grid renewable energy systems for powering security, radio communications, lighting, signage and telemetry applications.

The LE-300 wind turbine, a compact and quiet horizontal axis turbine, is considered to be the most rugged reliable small wind turbine in its class. All at an affordable price! There are two versions to choose from: the LE-300 for off-grid home and industrial applications on land; and the LE-300 Marine, fully optimised for marine conditions. Manufactured in the UK, the LE-300 wind turbine excellent power production stems from an exceptionally low start-up wind speed and superb high wind speed output. The LE-300 wind turbine is extremely easy to integrate with solar panels to create off-grid power systems that require modest amounts of energy. Available in 12V, 24V and 48V for battery charging applications.

Our LE-v50 vertical axis wind turbine is a compact, silent and lightweight turbine designed to trickle charge your batteries or for low power electronic devices such as data-loggers, radio and telemetry equipment. The vertical axis design is able to work effectively in challenging conditions; compared with a horizontal axis turbine which are destroyed in prolonged periods of high wind speeds - 27m/s or more (60mph). The LE-v50 Extreme wind turbine has proven itself in the most extreme remote places where wind speeds reach over 120mph. It can be found supplementing Solar PV panels in off-grid renewable energy systems to provide power 24/7.

Our LE-600 wind turbine is our 1.54m Dia wind turbine that produces 160W at wind speeds of 8m/s (18mph). The LE-600 has an innovative downwind arrangement where the rotor is at the back of the turbine. This means that the turbine is working in harmony with the forces of nature resulting in a stable and capable wind turbine.

The LE-v150 is a compact, silent and lightweight vertical axis wind turbine designed to provide power outputs pf up to 200 watts for a host of different battery charging applications. For use in applications where a traditional horizontal axis turbine may be inappropriate and simply couldn’t survive prolonged periods of storm force winds, the LE-v150 draws on our heritage of designing rugged vertical axis wind turbine chargers for powering industrial and research equipment in extreme environments.  Read the case study of LE-v150s powering a weather station and video cameras on a buoy 8.5 km offshore the Romanian coast.

Our 500w dump load is utilised to ‘bleed-off’ excess power from your off-grid power system when your battery bank is fully charged. These 500w dump loads are designed to be connected to either our 45A diversion controller or 60A diversion controller working off a 12v or 24v off-grid power system.

Our 1000W dump load is utilised to ‘bleed-off’ excess power from your off-grid power system when your battery bank is fully charged.  These 1000w dump loads are designed to be connected to either our 45A diversion controller or 60A diversion controller working off a 24v or 48v off-grid power system.
